||
|
|

|
||
|

|
||
|
|
- Add `x_ths` and `y_ths` to control merging behavior when `paragraph=True`
|
||
|
|
- 21 March 2021 - Version 1.3
|
||
|
|
- Second-generation models: multiple times smaller size, multiple times faster inference, additional characters, comparable accuracy to the first generation models.
|
||
|
|
EasyOCR will choose the latest model by default but you can also specify which model to use by passing `recog_network` argument when creating `Reader` instance.
|
||
|
|
For example, `reader = easyocr.Reader(['en','fr'], recog_network = 'latin_g1')` will use the 1st generation Latin model.

- 22 February 2021 - Version 1.2.5
|
||
|
|
- Add dynamic quantization for faster CPU inference (it is enabled by default for CPU mode)
|
||
|
|
- More sensible confident score
|
||
|
|
- 7 February 2021 - Version 1.2.4
|
||
|
|
- Faster CPU inference speed by using dynamic input shape (recognition rate increases by around 100% for images with a lot of text)
|
||
|
|
- 1 February 2021 - Version 1.2.3
|
||
|
|
- Add `setLanguageList` method to `Reader` class. This is a convenient api for changing languages (within the same model) after creating class instance.
|
||
|
|
- Small change on text box merging. (thanks [z-pc](https://github.com/z-pc), see [PR](https://github.com/JaidedAI/EasyOCR/pull/338))

|
||
|
|
- Add `rotation_info` to `readtext` method. Allow EasyOCR to rotate each text box and return the one with the best confident score. Eligible values are 90, 180 and 270. For example, try [90, 180 ,270] for all possible text orientations. (thanks [@mijoo308](https://github.com/mijoo308))
