Algorithm introduction

This tutorial lists the text detection algorithms and text recognition algorithms supported by PaddleOCR, as well as the models and metrics of each algorithm on English public datasets. It is mainly used for algorithm introduction and algorithm performance comparison. For more models on other datasets including Chinese, please refer to PP-OCR v2.0 models list.
