=================================== Scene Text Recognition based on ctpn and crnn

ctpn:

Z. Tian, W. Huang, T. He, P. He and Y. Qiao: Detecting Text in Natural Image with Connectionist Text Proposal Network, ECCV, 2016.

crnn:

An End-to-End Trainable Neural Network for Image-based Sequence Recognition and Its Application to Scene Text Recognition

Data:

Text detection model are downloaded from CTPN
Using generated chinese character by using code to train crnn model.

Required:

pytorch
caffe dependency

download pretrained model:

download model from 链接: https://pan.baidu.com/s/1bp8PJBL 密码: qvsj , then copy ctpn_trained_model.caffemodel to ./CTPN.models
download model from 链接: https://pan.baidu.com/s/1pLmgAvx 密码: a5pq , then copy crnn_trained_model.pth to ./crnn/samples

You can run demo:
