I get this error out of nowhere for some reason

my code

import easyocr
import faulthandler

faulthandler.enable()


# this needs to run only once to load the model into memory
reader = easyocr.Reader(['ja'], gpu=False)


results = reader.readtext('./my.png', paragraph=True, detail=0)


print(results)

What version of opencv-python are you using? If its the latest version at this time (4.5.5.62), then it seems it's not compatible with easyocr for now. Downgrade your opencv version to 4.5.4.60. Refer #630, #349. This might solve this error.

got the same error

the problem is the version of opencv-python-headless, SOLVED downgrading to Nov 2021 version

pip install opencv-python-headless==4.5.4.60

Same with me. It works well. Many thanks! I wasted 2days for it.

FYI, the problem is caused from:

EasyOCR/easyocr/craft_utils.py

Line 31 in ea2db54

    
           nLabels, labels, stats, centroids = cv2.connectedComponentsWithStats(text_score_comb.astype(np.uint8), connectivity=4)

+1

opencv/opencv-python#602
opencv/opencv#21366

Same error, solved by downgrading opencv. Thanks a lot! @varunsingh3000 @venergiac-bh

Faced the same issue. Downgrading works like a charm !

Now that the error seems fixed on opencv side, is it possible to remove the dependency lock on the version ?

downgrading did not work in my case

Any ideas on this?
