tfjs-text-detection-ctpn

TensorflowJS text detection implementation (inference), mainly based on ctpn model in tensorflow, id card detect, connectionist text proposal network The origin paper can be found here. Also, the origin repo in caffe can be found in here. If you got any questions, check the issue first, if the problem persists, open a new issue.

Demo.

Setup

npm i tfjs-text-detection-ctpn

Config object, that have to be passed to constructor:

   {
     NMS_FUNCTION: 'AUTH' | 'TF', specifies which non maximum suppression function we gonna use. TF faster, AUTH more accurate
     ANCHOR_SCALES: [16],
     PIXEL_MEANS: tf.tensor([[[102.9801, 115.9465, 122.7717]]]),
     SCALES: [600,] , // model input layer preferable size
     MAX_SIZE:  1000, 
     HAS_RPN: true,
     DETECT_MODE: 'O' | 'H', // 'O' - Oriented mode (boxes will be rotated by angle), now supports only oriented one ( H - horisontal)
     pre_nms_topN: 12000,
     post_nms_topN: 2000,
     nms_thresh:0.7, // threshold for nms function
     min_size: 8,
   }

Example

import * as tf from '@tensorflow/tfjs-node-gpu';
import CTPN from 'tfjs-text-detection-ctpn';

(async ()=> {
    const cfg = {
        NMS_FUNCTION: 'AUTH',
        ANCHOR_SCALES: [16],
        PIXEL_MEANS: tf.tensor([[[102.9801, 115.9465, 122.7717]]]),
        SCALES: [600,] ,
        MAX_SIZE:  1000,
        HAS_RPN: true,
        DETECT_MODE: 'O',
        pre_nms_topN: 12000,
        post_nms_topN: 2000,
        nms_thresh:0.7,
        min_size: 8,
    };
    const ctpn = new CTPN(cfg);
    const image = './test/007.jpg';
    const predicted = await ctpn.predict(image);
    console.log(predicted);
    ctpn.draw(image,'res.jpg',...predicted, 'black')
})();
