A deep-learning-based OCR engine from SYSU DeepDriving Lab that recognizes 3755 printed Chinese characters (Level-1 character set) in electronic documents, IDs, and tickets. It includes synthetic data generation, training, evaluation, and inference scripts in Python.

Use cases

• recognize printed chinese characters in scanned documents
• build an ocr pipeline for invoices and receipts
• train a custom chinese character recognition model
• extract text from id cards and tickets
• generate synthetic chinese font datasets for training
• replace paid ocr apis with a self-hosted model

When to choose

• you need offline, self-hosted OCR for printed Chinese text
• you want to fine-tune or retrain the recognition model yourself
• you're processing Chinese documents, tickets, or certificates

When to avoid

• you need handwriting or general multilingual OCR
• you need a maintained project with a license and active releases
• you need production-grade support or line-level text segmentation out of the box
