RECENT UPDATES

  • 2022.5.9 release PaddleOCR v2.5, including:

    • PP-OCRv3: With comparable speed, the effect of Chinese scene is further improved by 5% compared with PP-OCRv2, the effect of English scene is improved by 11%, and the average recognition accuracy of 80 language multilingual models is improved by more than 5%.
    • PPOCRLabelv2: Add the annotation function for table recognition task, key information extraction task and irregular text image.
    • Interactive e-book "Dive into OCR", covers the cutting-edge theory and code practice of OCR full stack technology.

  • 2022.5.7 Add support for metric and model logging during training to Weights & Biases.

  • 2021.12.21 OCR open source online course starts. The lesson starts at 8:30 every night and lasts for ten days. Free registration: https://aistudio.baidu.com/aistudio/course/introduce/25207

  • 2021.12.21 release PaddleOCR v2.4, release 1 text detection algorithm (PSENet), 3 text recognition algorithms (NRTR、SEED、SAR), 1 key information extraction algorithm (SDMGR) and 3 DocVQA algorithms (LayoutLM、LayoutLMv2，LayoutXLM).

  • 2021.9.7 release PaddleOCR v2.3, PP-OCRv2 is proposed. The CPU inference speed of PP-OCRv2 is 220% higher than that of PP-OCR server. The F-score of PP-OCRv2 is 7% higher than that of PP-OCR mobile.

  • 2021.8.3 released PaddleOCR v2.2, add a new structured documents analysis toolkit, i.e., PP-Structure, support layout analysis and table recognition (One-key to export chart images to Excel files).

  • 2021.4.8 release end-to-end text recognition algorithm PGNet which is published in AAAI 2021. Find tutorial here；release multi language recognition models, support more than 80 languages recognition; especically, the performance of English recognition model is Optimized.

  • 2021.1.21 update more than 25+ multilingual recognition models models list, including：English, Chinese, German, French, Japanese，Spanish，Portuguese Russia Arabic and so on. Models for more languages will continue to be updated Develop Plan.
