star history
This project implements a complete OCR pipeline using the darknet framework. It uses CTPN (Connectionist Text Proposal Network) for natural scene text detection and a CNN combined with CTC (Connectionist Temporal Classification) loss for text recognition. The system supports both GPU and CPU execution, provides a web service for image and URL-based text extraction, and includes training datasets and model files for Chinese text recognition.
