Shape Robust Text Detection with Progressive Scale Expansion Network

Requirements

• python 2.7
• PyTorch v0.4.1+
• pyclipper
• Polygon2
• OpenCV 3+ (for c++ version pse)

Todo

• CTW1500 train and test

Introduction

Progressive Scale Expansion Network (PSENet) is a text detector which is able to well detect the arbitrary-shape text in natural scene.

Training

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 python train_ic15.py

Testing

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python test_ic15.py --scale 1 --resume [path of model]
