Ultra Light OCR Competition Technical Report
Ultra Light OCR Competition is a Chinese scene text recognition competition jointly organized by CSIG (China Society of Image and Graphics) and Baidu, Inc. In addition to focusing on common problems in Chinese scene text recognition, such as long text length and massive characters, we need to balance the trade-off of model scale and accuracy since the model size limitation in the competition is 10M. From experiments in aspects of data, model, training, etc, we proposed a general and effective method for Chinese scene text recognition, which got us second place among over 100 teams with accuracy 0.817 in TestB dataset. The code is available at https://aistudio.baidu.com/aistudio/projectdetail/2159102.
