## What it is
A Python demo project that attempts to recognize 12306 (China Railway) image CAPTCHAs using image preprocessing, pytesseract OCR, and Baidu image search APIs. It is a proof-of-concept with low accuracy, intended for demonstration purposes.

## Use cases
- recognize 12306 image captchas
- solve image-based captcha challenges with OCR
- test tesseract OCR on Chinese text in images
- experiment with Baidu reverse image search APIs
- automate captcha recognition for China railway ticket booking

## When to choose
- you want a simple Python example of chaining image preprocessing with OCR and image search
- you are studying historical approaches to 12306 captcha recognition
- you need a starting point for experimenting with captcha recognition techniques

## When to avoid
- you need high captcha recognition accuracy for production use
- you need a maintained tool - the project has not been updated since 2017 and the APIs it uses may no longer work
- you want a general-purpose OCR library rather than a captcha-specific demo

## Facets
