PP-OCRv5_mobile_rec

Introduction

PP-OCRv5_mobile_rec is one of the PP-OCRv5_rec that are the latest generation text line recognition models developed by PaddleOCR team. It aims to efficiently and accurately support the recognition of four major languages—Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, and Japanese—as well as complex text scenarios such as handwriting, vertical text, pinyin, and rare characters using a single model. The key accuracy metrics are as follow:

Note: If any character (including punctuation) in a line is incorrect, the entire line is marked as wrong. This ensures higher accuracy in practical applications.

Quick Start

Installation

1. PaddlePaddle

Please refer to the following commands to install PaddlePaddle using pip:

# for CUDA11.8
python -m pip install paddlepaddle-gpu==3.0.0 -i https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/packages/stable/cu118/

# for CUDA12.6
python -m pip install paddlepaddle-gpu==3.0.0 -i https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/packages/stable/cu126/

# for CPU
python -m pip install paddlepaddle==3.0.0 -i https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/packages/stable/cpu/

For details about PaddlePaddle installation, please refer to the PaddlePaddle official website.

2. PaddleOCR

Install the latest version of the PaddleOCR inference package from PyPI:

python -m pip install paddleocr

Model Usage

You can quickly experience the functionality with a single command:

paddleocr text_recognition \
    --model_name PP-OCRv5_mobile_rec \
    -i https://cdn-uploads.huggingface.co/production/uploads/681c1ecd9539bdde5ae1733c/2PZfbirjfxA88695lRmgk.jpeg

You can also integrate the model inference of the text recognition module into your project. Before running the following code, please download the sample image to your local machine.

from paddleocr import TextRecognition
model = TextRecognition(model_name="PP-OCRv5_mobile_rec")
output = model.predict(input="2PZfbirjfxA88695lRmgk.jpeg", batch_size=1)
for res in output:
    res.print()
    res.save_to_img(save_path="./output/")
    res.save_to_json(save_path="./output/res.json")

After running, the obtained result is as follows:

{'res': {'input_path': '/root/.paddlex/predict_input/2PZfbirjfxA88695lRmgk.jpeg', 'page_index': None, 'rec_text': 'day as a reminder of the', 'rec_score': 0.9793617129325867}}

The visualized image is as follows:

Pipeline Usage

The ability of a single model is limited. But the pipeline consists of several models can provide more capacity to resolve difficult problems in real-world scenarios.

PP-OCRv5

The general OCR pipeline is used to solve text recognition tasks by extracting text information from images and outputting it in string format. And there are 5 modules in the pipeline:

• Document Image Orientation Classification Module (Optional)
• Text Image Unwarping Module (Optional)
• Text Line Orientation Classification Module (Optional)
• Text Detection Module
• Text Recognition Module

Run a single command to quickly experience the OCR pipeline:

paddleocr ocr -i https://cdn-uploads.huggingface.co/production/uploads/681c1ecd9539bdde5ae1733c/3ul2Rq4Sk5Cn-l69D695U.png \
    --text_recognition_model_name PP-OCRv5_mobile_rec \
    --use_doc_orientation_classify False \
    --use_doc_unwarping False \
    --use_textline_orientation True \
    --save_path ./output \
    --device gpu:0

Results are printed to the terminal:
