OCR介绍

光学字符识别（英语：Optical Character Recognition，OCR）是指对文本资料的图像文件进行分析识别处理，获取文字及版面信息的过程。发展时间较长，使用很普遍。OCR作为计算机视觉中较早使用深度学习技术的领域，有很多优秀的模型出现。普遍的深度学习下的OCR技术将文字识别过程分为：文本区域检测以及字符识别。

文本区域检测——CTPN模型

文字区域检测：将图片中出现的文本位置检测出来，可能存在不同语言，不同文字大小，不同角度倾斜，不同程度遮挡等情况。CTPN网络结合了CNN与LSTM深度网络，通过固定宽度的anchor提取proposal，能有效的检测出复杂场景的横向分布的文字区域，不定长度文本识别效果较好，是目前使用广泛的文字检测算法。

字符序列检测——CRNN模型

字符识别算法：将文本区域的字符识别出来。通过深度神经网络对目标区域进行特征提取，然后对固定特征进行提取和比对，得出识别结果。采用文本识别网络CRNN+CTC。CRNN全称为卷积循环神经网络，将特征提取，序列建模以及转录整合到统一的模型框架中。主要用于端到端地对不定长的文本序列进行识别，不用先对单个文字进行切割，而是将文本识别转化为时序依赖的序列学习问题，就是基于图像的序列识别。如下图，CRNN网络分为：卷积层、循环层和转录层三部分，CTC为无词典的转录方式， 不会被局限在预定义词汇范围中。

完整的端到端OCR流程

了解了文本区域检测以及字符识别后，下面详细讲解完整的端到端OCR流程：

（1）准备一张含有文字的原图；

（2）对原图进行文字位置的检测，检测结果可能是水平矩形框，也可能是倾斜矩形框；

（3）从原图中把文字框对应的图片切下来，并旋转正，得到水平的文字块切片图；

（4）对每个文字块切片图依次进行字符识别，每个切片图的识别结果汇总起来，就得到原图的文字识别结果。

因此完整的端到端OCR流程是：输入原图 -> 文字检测 -> 文字块切片 -> 字符识别 -> 识别结果汇总。

理论部分到此告一段落，下面开始在ModelArts中体验实战项目开发！

CTPN为了更好检测出文本区域，anchor为 宽度固定为16 ， 高度为[11, 16, 23, 33, 48, 68, 97, 139, 198, 283] 的文本框，共10个anchor。

这样的设计是为了更好检测出文字区域的水平位置，在文字检测中，检测文字的水平范围比较垂直范围要更困难。将anchor的宽度固定，只检测10个高度的anchor，尤其在面对多个分离的文本的情况时，能够更好检测文字的范围。

不同的anchor得到了边界框，利用nms（非极大值抑制）进行边界框回归计算，最终得到细粒度的文本区域。

5. 加载CRNN模型
