open-mmlab/mmocr最新发布版本:v1.0.1(2023-07-04 15:11:53)
Highlights
- We add a new text recognition model -- SATRN! Its pretrained checkpoint achieves the best performance over other provided text recognition models. A lighter version of SATRN is also released which can obtain ~98% of the performance of the original model with only 45 MB in size. (@2793145003) #405
- Improve the demo script,
ocr.py
, which supports applying end-to-end text detection, text recognition and key information extraction models on images with easy-to-use commands. Users can find its full documentation in the demo section. (@samayala22, @manjrekarom) #371, #386, #400, #374, #428 - Our documentation is reorganized into a clearer structure. More useful contents are on the way! #409, #454
- The requirement of
Polygon3
is removed since this project is no longer maintained or distributed. We unified all its references to equivalent substitutions inshapely
instead. #448
Breaking Changes & Migration Guide
- Upgrade version requirement of MMDetection to 2.14.0 to avoid bugs #382
- MMOCR now has its own model and layer registries inherited from MMDetection's or MMCV's counterparts. (#436) The modified hierarchical structure of the model registries are now organized as follows.
mmcv.MODELS -> mmdet.BACKBONES -> BACKBONES
mmcv.MODELS -> mmdet.NECKS -> NECKS
mmcv.MODELS -> mmdet.ROI_EXTRACTORS -> ROI_EXTRACTORS
mmcv.MODELS -> mmdet.HEADS -> HEADS
mmcv.MODELS -> mmdet.LOSSES -> LOSSES
mmcv.MODELS -> mmdet.DETECTORS -> DETECTORS
mmcv.ACTIVATION_LAYERS -> ACTIVATION_LAYERS
mmcv.UPSAMPLE_LAYERS -> UPSAMPLE_LAYERS
To migrate your old implementation to our new backend, you need to change the import path of any registries and their corresponding builder functions (including build_detectors
) from mmdet.models.builder
to mmocr.models.builder
. If you have referred to any model or layer of MMDetection or MMCV in your model config, you need to add mmdet.
or mmcv.
prefix to its name to inform the model builder of the right namespace to work on.
Interested users may check out MMCV's tutorial on Registry for in-depth explanations on its mechanism.
