EasyDeepOCR - Reading Texts with Deep Learning¶

Texts read by the **EasyDeepOCR** library.

Purpose¶

EasyDeepOCR is a new generation OCR library that relies on deep learning technologies to tackle modern text reading challenges.

EasyDeepOCR features:

Zero-configuration text location and recognition
Text filtering through topologies
Improved speed on x86_64 CPUs with OpenVINO and NVIDIA GPUs with TensorRT
Optional further speed optimization using only a few labeled samples
A fully featured eVision Studio tool and samples showcasing the entire workflow of EasyDeepOCR.

EasyDeepOCR is a major improvement over the EasyOCR and EasyOCR2 libraries, combining ease of use and enhanced capabilities.

Reading a Text¶

Create an ETextReader ^.NET ^Python and initialize it.
Call ETextReader::Read ^.NET ^Python to get the texts of an image.

C++

#include <eVision/EasyOcr/EasyDeepOCR/ETextReader.h>

using namespace eVision;
namespace EDO = eVision::EasyDeepOCR;
// Create an ETextReader instance
EDO::ETextReader reader;
// Initialize the ETextReader
reader.Initialize();
// Read an image
EImageBW8 image;
image.Load("image.tif");
std::vector<EDO::EText> texts = reader.Read(image);

using eVision;
using EDO = eVision.EasyDeepOCR;

// Create an ETextReader instance
EDO.ETextReader reader = new EDO.ETextReader();
// Initialize the ETextReader
reader.Initialize();
// Read an image
EImageBW8 image = new EImageBW8();
image.Load("image.tif");
EDO.EText[] texts = reader.Read(image);

Python

import eVision
from eVision import EasyDeepOCR as EDO
# Create an ETextReader instance
reader = EDO.ETextReader()
# Initialize the ETextReader
reader.Initialize()
# Read an image 
image = eVision.EImageBW8()
image.Load("image.tif")
texts = reader.Read(image)
