this model cannot handle 90, 180, 270 degree rotation, right? #90

According to the paper, the vertex of quadrilateral is labeled start with top-left, clockwise.

so if the text rotate, like 180 degree, the model would treat it as not rotate at all, so there are still 4 possible angles cannot handle.

is my understanding right?

The model focuses on the accurate localization of the text, not the orientation. If you are interested in the orientations of the text, you can predict an "angle" with supervision to achieve this.
