The inference model (the model saved by `fluid.io.save_inference_model`) is generally a solidified model saved after the model training is completed, and is mostly used to give prediction in deployment.

The model saved during the training process is the checkpoints model, which saves the parameters of the model and is mostly used to resume training.

Compared with the checkpoints model, the inference model will additionally save the structural information of the model. It has superior performance in predicting in deployment and accelerating inferencing, is flexible and convenient, and is suitable for integration with actual systems. For more details, please refer to the document [Classification Framework](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleClas/blob/master/docs/zh_CN/extension/paddle_inference.md).

When converting to an inference model, the configuration file used is the same as the configuration file used during training. In addition, you also need to set the `Global.checkpoints` and `Global.save_inference_dir` parameters in the configuration file.
`Global.checkpoints` points to the model parameter file saved during training, and `Global.save_inference_dir` is the directory where the generated inference model is saved.
After the conversion is successful, there are two files in the `save_inference_dir` directory:
```
inference/det_db/
  └─  model     Check the program file of inference model
  └─  params    Check the parameter file of the inference model
```

The following will introduce the lightweight Chinese detection model inference, DB text detection model inference and EAST text detection model inference. The default configuration is based on the inference setting of the DB text detection model.
Because EAST and DB algorithms are very different, when inference, it is necessary to **adapt the EAST text detection algorithm by passing in corresponding parameters**.

133 134 135 136 137 138 139

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_det.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs/2.jpg" --det_model_dir="./inference/det_db/"
```

The visual text detection results are saved to the ./inference_results folder by default, and the name of the result file is prefixed with'det_res'. Examples of results are as follows:

By setting the size of the parameter `det_max_side_len`, the maximum value of picture normalization in the detection algorithm is changed. When the length and width of the picture are less than det_max_side_len, the original picture is used for prediction, otherwise the picture is scaled to the maximum value for prediction. This parameter is set to det_max_side_len=960 by default. If the resolution of the input picture is relatively large and you want to use a larger resolution for prediction, you can execute the following command:

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_det.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs/2.jpg" --det_model_dir="./inference/det_db/" --det_max_side_len=1200
```

If you want to use the CPU for prediction, execute the command as follows
```
python3 tools/infer/predict_det.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs/2.jpg" --det_model_dir="./inference/det_db/" --use_gpu=False

First, convert the model saved in the DB text detection training process into an inference model. Taking the model based on the Resnet50_vd backbone network and trained on the ICDAR2015 English dataset as an example ([model download link](https://paddleocr.bj.bcebos.com/det_r50_vd_db.tar)), you can use the following command to convert:

```
# Set the yml configuration file of the training algorithm after -c
# The Global.checkpoints parameter sets the address of the training model to be converted without adding the file suffix .pdmodel, .pdopt or .pdparams.
# The Global.save_inference_dir parameter sets the address where the converted model will be saved.

```

DB text detection model inference, you can execute the following command:

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_det.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs_en/img_10.jpg" --det_model_dir="./inference/det_db/"
```

The visualized text detection results are saved to the `./inference_results` folder by default, and the name of the result file is prefixed with 'det_res'. Examples of results are as follows:

The following will introduce the lightweight Chinese recognition model inference, other CTC-based and Attention-based text recognition models inference. For Chinese text recognition, it is recommended to choose the recognition model based on CTC loss. In practice, it is also found that the result of the model based on Attention loss is not as good as the one based on CTC loss. In addition, if the characters dictionary is modified during training, make sure that you use the same characters set during inferencing. Please check below for details.

Taking STAR-Net as an example, we introduce the recognition model inference based on CTC loss. CRNN and Rosetta are used in a similar way, by setting the recognition algorithm parameter `rec_algorithm`.

First, convert the model saved in the STAR-Net text recognition training process into an inference model. Taking the model based on Resnet34_vd backbone network, using MJSynth and SynthText (two English text recognition synthetic datasets) for training, as an example ([model download address](https://paddleocr.bj.bcebos.com/rec_r34_vd_tps_bilstm_ctc.tar)). It can be converted as follow:

```
# Set the yml configuration file of the training algorithm after -c
# The Global.checkpoints parameter sets the address of the training model to be converted without adding the file suffix .pdmodel, .pdopt or .pdparams.
# The Global.save_inference_dir parameter sets the address where the converted model will be saved.

python3 tools/export_model.py -c configs/rec/rec_r34_vd_tps_bilstm_ctc.yml -o Global.checkpoints="./models/rec_r34_vd_tps_bilstm_ctc/best_accuracy" Global.save_inference_dir="./inference/starnet"
```

For STAR-Net text recognition model inference, execute the following commands:

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_rec.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs_words_en/word_336.png" --rec_model_dir="./inference/starnet/" --rec_image_shape="3, 32, 100" --rec_char_type="en"

**Note**:Since the above model refers to [DTRB](https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.01906) text recognition training and evaluation process, it is different from the training of lightweight Chinese recognition model in two aspects:
K
Khanh Tran 已提交
294 295 296 297 298 299 300 301 302 303

- The image resolution used in training is different: the image resolution used in training the above model is [3,32,100], while during our Chinese model training, in order to ensure the recognition effect of long text, the image resolution used in training is [3, 32, 320]. The default shape parameter of the inference stage is the image resolution used in training phase, that is [3, 32, 320]. Therefore, when running inference of the above English model here, you need to set the shape of the recognition image through the parameter `rec_image_shape`.

- Character list: the experiment in the DTRB paper is only for 26 lowercase English characters and 10 numbers, a total of 36 characters. All upper and lower case characters are converted to lower case characters, and characters not in the above list are ignored and considered as spaces. Therefore, no characters dictionary file is used here, but a dictionary is generated by the below command. Therefore, the parameter `rec_char_type` needs to be set during inference, which is specified as "en" in English.

```
self.character_str = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
dict_character = list(self.character_str)
```

<a name="SRN-BASED_RECOGNITION"></a>
### 4. SRN-BASED TEXT RECOGNITION MODEL INFERENCE

The recognition model based on SRN requires additional setting of the recognition algorithm parameter --rec_algorithm="SRN". 
At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that the predicted shape is consistent with the training, such as: --rec_image_shape="1, 64, 256"

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_rec.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs_words_en/word_336.png" \
                                    --rec_model_dir="./inference/srn/" \
                                    --rec_image_shape="1, 64, 256" \
                                    --rec_char_type="en" \
                                    --rec_algorithm="SRN"

If you need to predict other language models, when using inference model prediction, you need to specify the dictionary path used by `--rec_char_dict_path`. At the same time, in order to get the correct visualization results,
You need to specify the visual font path through `--vis_font_path`. There are small language fonts provided by default under the `doc/` path, such as Korean recognition:

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_rec.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs_words/korean/1.jpg" --rec_model_dir="./your inference model" --rec_char_type="korean" --rec_char_dict_path="ppocr/ utils/korean_dict.txt" --vis_font_path="doc/korean.ttf"
```

After executing the command, the prediction result of the above figure is:

### 1.ANGLE CLASSIFICATION MODEL INFERENCE

For angle classification model inference, you can execute the following commands:

```
python3 tools/infer/predict_cls.py --image_dir="./doc/imgs_words/ch/word_4.jpg" --cls_model_dir="./inference/cls/"
```

![](../imgs_words/ch/word_4.jpg)

After executing the command, the prediction results (classification angle and score) of the above image will be printed on the screen.

When performing prediction, you need to specify the path of a single image or a folder of images through the parameter `image_dir`, the parameter `det_model_dir` specifies the path to detect the inference model, the parameter `cls_model_dir` specifies the path to angle classification inference model and the parameter `rec_model_dir` specifies the path to identify the inference model. The parameter `use_angle_cls` is used to control whether to enable the angle classification model.The visualized recognition results are saved to the `./inference_results` folder by default.

If you want to try other detection algorithms or recognition algorithms, please refer to the above text detection model inference and text recognition model inference, update the corresponding configuration and model.

**Note: due to the limitation of rotation logic of detected box, SAST curved text detection model (using the parameter `det_sast_polygon=True`) is not supported for model combination yet.**

The following command uses the combination of the EAST text detection and STAR-Net text recognition:
