## Release - [2024/9/03]🔥🔥🔥 We open-source the codes, weights, and benchmarks. The paper can be found in this [repo](https://github.com/Ucas-HaoranWei/GOT-OCR2.0/blob/main/GOT-OCR-2.0-paper.pdf). We also have submitted it to Arxiv. - [2024/9/03]🔥🔥🔥 We release the OCR-2.0 model GOT!

Towards OCR-2.0 via a Unified End-to-end Model

*** ## Install 0. Our environment is cuda11.8+torch2.0.1 1. Clone this repository and navigate to the GOT folder ```bash git clone https://github.com/Ucas-HaoranWei/GOT-OCR2.0.git cd 'the GOT folder' ``` 2. Install Package ```Shell conda create -n got python=3.10 -y conda activate got pip install -e . ``` 3. Install Flash-Attention ``` pip install ninja pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation ``` ## GOT Weights - [Google Drive](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1OdDtsJ8bFJYlNUzCQG4hRkUL6V-qBQaN?usp=sharing) - [BaiduYun](https://pan.baidu.com/s/1G4aArpCOt6I_trHv_1SE2g) code: OCR2 ## Demo 1. plain texts OCR: ```Shell python3 GOT/demo/run_ocr_2.0.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --image-file /an/image/file.png --type ocr ``` 2. format texts OCR: ```Shell python3 GOT/demo/run_ocr_2.0.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --image-file /an/image/file.png --type format ``` 3. fine-grained OCR: ```Shell python3 GOT/demo/run_ocr_2.0.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --image-file /an/image/file.png --type format/ocr --box [x1,y1,x2,y2] ``` ```Shell python3 GOT/demo/run_ocr_2.0.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --image-file /an/image/file.png --type format/ocr --color red/green/blue ``` 4. multi-crop OCR: ```Shell python3 GOT/demo/run_ocr_2.0_crop.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --image-file /an/image/file.png ``` 5. multi-page OCR (the image path contains multiple .png files): ```Shell python3 GOT/demo/run_ocr_2.0_crop.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --image-file /images/path/ --multi-page ``` 6. render the formatted OCR results: ```Shell python3 GOT/demo/run_ocr_2.0.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --image-file /an/image/file.png --type format --render ``` **Note**: The rendering results can be found in /results/demo.html. Please open the demo.html to see the results. ## Train 1. This codebase only supports post-training (stage-2/stage-3) upon our GOT weights. 2. If you want train from stage-1 described in our paper, you need this [repo](https://github.com/Ucas-HaoranWei/Vary-tiny-600k). ```Shell deepspeed /GOT-OCR-2.0-master/GOT/train/train_GOT.py \ --deepspeed /GOT-OCR-2.0-master/zero_config/zero2.json --model_name_or_path /GOT_weights/ \ --use_im_start_end True \ --bf16 True \ --gradient_accumulation_steps 2 \ --evaluation_strategy "no" \ --save_strategy "steps" \ --save_steps 200 \ --save_total_limit 1 \ --weight_decay 0. \ --warmup_ratio 0.001 \ --lr_scheduler_type "cosine" \ --logging_steps 1 \ --tf32 True \ --model_max_length 8192 \ --gradient_checkpointing True \ --dataloader_num_workers 8 \ --report_to none \ --per_device_train_batch_size 2 \ --num_train_epochs 1 \ --learning_rate 2e-5 \ --datasets pdf-ocr+scence \ --output_dir /your/output.path ``` **Note**: 1. Change the corresponding data information in constant.py. 2. Change line 37 in conversation_dataset_qwen.py to your data_name. ## Eval 1. We use the [Fox](https://github.com/ucaslcl/Fox) and [OneChart](https://github.com/LingyvKong/OneChart) benchmarks, and other benchmarks can be found in the weights download link. 2. The eval codes can be found in GOT/eval. 3. You can use the evaluate_GOT.py to run the eval. If you have 8 GPUs, the --num-chunks can be set to 8. ```Shell python3 GOT/eval/evaluate_GOT.py --model-name /GOT_weights/ --gtfile_path xxxx.json --image_path /image/path/ --out_path /data/eval_results/GOT_mathpix_test/ --num-chunks 8 --datatype OCR ``` ## Contact If you are interested in this work or have questions about the code or the paper, please join our communication [Wechat]() group. ## Acknowledgement - [Vary](https://github.com/Ucas-HaoranWei/Vary/): the codebase we built upon! - [Qwen](https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen): the LLM base model of Vary, which is good at both English and Chinese! ## Citation ```bibtex @article{wei2024general, title={General OCR Theory: Towards OCR-2.0 via a Unified End-to-end Model}, author={Wei, Haoran and Liu, Chenglong and Chen, Jinyue and Wang, Jia and Kong, Lingyu and Xu, Yanming and Ge, Zheng and Zhao, Liang and Sun, Jianjian and Peng, Yuang and others}, journal={arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.01704}, year={2024} } @article{wei2023vary, title={Vary: Scaling up the Vision Vocabulary for Large Vision-Language Models}, author={Wei, Haoran and Kong, Lingyu and Chen, Jinyue and Zhao, Liang and Ge, Zheng and Yang, Jinrong and Sun, Jianjian and Han, Chunrui and Zhang, Xiangyu}, journal={arXiv preprint arXiv:2312.06109}, year={2023} }
