Training
Note: When you train the IC15-Data or MLT-Data, please see the annotation in data_loader.py line 92 and line 108-112.
Train for Syndata
- download the Syndata(I will give the link)
- change the path in basernet/vgg16_bn.py file:
(/data/CRAFT-pytorch/vgg16_bn-6c64b313.pth -> /your_path/vgg16_bn-6c64b313.pth).You can download the model here.baidu||google
- change the path in trainSyndata.py file:
(1、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/SynthText -> /your_path/SynthText 2、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/synweights/synweights -> /your_path/real_weights)
- Run
python trainSyndata.py
Train for IC15 data based on Syndata pre-trained model
- download the IC15 data, rename the image file and the gt file for ch4_training_images and ch4_training_localization_transcription_gt,respectively.
- change the path in basernet/vgg16_bn.py file:
(/data/CRAFT-pytorch/vgg16_bn-6c64b313.pth -> /your_path/vgg16_bn-6c64b313.pth).You can download the model here.baidu||google
- change the path in trainic15data.py file:
(1、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/SynthText -> /your_path/SynthText 2、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/real_weights -> /your_path/real_weights)
- change the path in trainic15data.py file:
(1、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/1-7.pth -> /your_path/your_pre-trained_model_name 2、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/icdar1317 -> /your_ic15data_path/)
- Run
python trainic15data.py
Train for IC13+17 data based on Syndata pre-trained model
- download the MLT data, rename the image file and the gt file,respectively.
- change the path in basernet/vgg16_bn.py file:
(/data/CRAFT-pytorch/vgg16_bn-6c64b313.pth -> /your_path/vgg16_bn-6c64b313.pth).You can download the model here.baidu||google
- change the path in trainic-MLT_data.py file:
(1、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/SynthText -> /your_path/SynthText 2、savemodel path-> your savemodel path)
- change the path in trainic-MLT_data.py file:
(1、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/1-7.pth -> /your_path/your_pre-trained_model_name 2、/data/CRAFT-pytorch/icdar1317 -> /your_ic15data_path/)
- Run
python trainic-MLT_data.py
If you want to train for weak supervised use our Syndate pre-trained model:
1、You should first download the pre_trained model trained in the Syndata baidu||google.
2、change the data path and pre-trained model path.
3、run python trainic15data.py
This code supprts for Syndata and icdar2015, and we will release the training code for IC13 and IC17 as soon as possible.
| Methods | dataset | Recall | precision | H-mean |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Syndata | ICDAR13 | 71.93% | 81.31% | 76.33% |
| Syndata+IC15 | ICDAR15 | 76.12% | 84.55% | 80.11% |
| Syndata+MLT(deteval) | ICDAR13 | 86.81% | 95.28% | 90.85% |
| Syndata+MLT(deteval)(new gaussian map method) | ICDAR13 | 90.67% | 94.56% | 92.57% |
| Syndata+IC15(new gaussian map method) | ICDAR15 | 80.36% | 84.25% | 82.26% |
We have released the latest code with new gaussian map and random crop algorithm.
Note:new gaussian map method can split the inference gaussian region score map
Sample:
Note:We have solved the problem about detecting big word. Now we are training the model. And any issues or advice are welcome.
