    Video-subtitle-extractor

    Video-subtitle-extractor

    A GUI tool for extracting hard-coded subtitle (hardsub) from videos

    Video hard subtitle extraction, generate srt file. There is no need to apply for a third-party API, and text recognition can be implemented locally. A deep learning-based video subtitle extraction framework, including subtitle region detection and subtitle content extraction. A GUI tool for extracting hard-coded subtitles (hardsub) from videos and generating srt files. Use local OCR recognition, no need to set up and call any API, and do not need to access online OCR services such as Baidu and Ali to complete text recognition locally. Support GPU acceleration, after GPU acceleration, you can get higher accuracy and faster extraction speed. (CLI version) No need for users to manually set the subtitle area, the project automatically detects the subtitle area through the text detection model. Filter the text in the non-subtitle area and remove the watermark (station logo) text.

    EasyOCR

    EasyOCR

    Ready-to-use OCR with 80+ supported languages

    Ready-to-use OCR with 80+ supported languages and all popular writing scripts including Latin, Chinese, Arabic, Devanagari, Cyrillic and etc. EasyOCR is a python module for extracting text from image. It is a general OCR that can read both natural scene text and dense text in document. We are currently supporting 80+ languages and expanding. Second-generation models: multiple times smaller size, multiple times faster inference, additional characters and comparable accuracy to the first generation models. EasyOCR will choose the latest model by default but you can also specify which model to use. Model weights for the chosen language will be automatically downloaded or you can download them manually from the model hub. The idea is to be able to plug-in any state-of-the-art model into EasyOCR. There are a lot of geniuses trying to make better detection/recognition models, but we are not trying to be geniuses here. We just want to make their works quickly accessible to the public.

    DocTR

    DocTR

    Library for OCR-related tasks powered by Deep Learning

    DocTR provides an easy and powerful way to extract valuable information from your documents. Seemlessly process documents for Natural Language Understanding tasks: we provide OCR predictors to parse textual information (localize and identify each word) from your documents. Robust 2-stage (detection + recognition) OCR predictors with pretrained parameters. User-friendly, 3 lines of code to load a document and extract text with a predictor. State-of-the-art performances on public document datasets, comparable with GoogleVision/AWS Textract. Easy integration (available templates for browser demo & API deployment). End-to-End OCR is achieved in docTR using a two-stage approach: text detection (localizing words), then text recognition (identify all characters in the word). As such, you can select the architecture used for text detection, and the one for text recognition from the list of available implementations.

    LayoutParser

    LayoutParser

    A Unified Toolkit for Deep Learning Based Document Image Analysis

    With the help of state-of-the-art deep learning models, Layout Parser enables extracting complicated document structures using only several lines of code. This method is also more robust and generalizable as no sophisticated rules are involved in this process. A complete instruction for installing the main Layout Parser library and auxiliary components. Learn how to load DL Layout models and use them for layout detection. The full list of layout models currently available in Layout Parser. After several major updates, layoutparser provides various functionalities and deep learning models from different backends. But it still easy to install layoutparser, and we designed the installation method in a way such that you can choose to install only the needed dependencies for your project. LayoutParser is also a open platform that enables the sharing of layout detection models and DIA pipelines among the community.

    DeepDetect

    DeepDetect

    Deep Learning API and Server in C++14 support for Caffe, PyTorch

    The core idea is to remove the error sources and difficulties of Deep Learning applications by providing a safe haven of commoditized practices, all available as a single core. While the Open Source Deep Learning Server is the core element, with REST API, and multi-platform support that allows training & inference everywhere, the Deep Learning Platform allows higher level management for training neural network models and using them as if they were simple code snippets. Ready for applications of image tagging, object detection, segmentation, OCR, Audio, Video, Text classification, CSV for tabular data and time series. Neural network templates for the most effective architectures for GPU, CPU, and Embedded devices. Training in a few hours and with small data thanks to 25+ pre-trained models. Full Open Source, with an ecosystem of tools (API clients, video, annotation, ...) Fast Server written in pure C++, a single codebase for Cloud, Desktop & Embedded.

    PandaOCR

    PandaOCR

    Multifunctional OCR Image and Text Recognition

    At present, the newly refactored PandaOCR.Pro professional version has been released. It is faster and more stable, with richer interfaces and easier operation. It is recommended for you to use it! The normal version will continue to be maintained, and all interfaces will be retained but no new functions will be added. The reason why the version number of the professional version starts from 5.x is that the normal version will be updated in the future, so a period of version number is reserved. You can continue to use the regular version for free as before, without worrying about deactivating the regular version after the launch of the professional version. If you have higher needs, you can try the professional version. You can also use the Baidu API interface without activation. Support shortcut keys and screen corner trigger screenshot recognition function, convenient and fast.
