I have 3 Question #11

Closed arsalan993 closed 6 years ago

arsalan993 commented 6 years ago

Q1 : Do we need to use "eval_text_recognition_model.py" file to perform the text recognition ? Q2 : Can you guys provide us with a pre-trained model? Q3 : Is this system capable to recognizing a single text in an image or a line of text containing multiple characters?

Hi,

Q1: what do you mean with use eval file? Do you mean the file eval_text_recognition_model.py? This file is just meant as an example on how to use the trained network in prediction mode.

Q2: You can find a pre-trained model here

Q3: The text recognition model is only able to recognize text from already cropped text lines. In our experiments on the FSNS dataset we tried to build a system that can recognize text from multiple words in an image

Hope that helps ;)
