EraseNet

This repository is the implementation of EraseNet, a neural network for end-to-end scene text removal.

Data preparation

The data preparation can be refer to ./examples/. You can download our datatset at SCUT-EnsText or synthetic dataset SCUT-Syn for training and testing.

SCUT-EnsText needs decompression password, you can send me at liuchongyu1996@gmail.com for it.

Environment

Anaconda is recommended to establish a virtual environment to run our code. My environment can be refered as follows:

python = 3.7
pytorch = 1.3.1
torchvision = 0.4.2

Training

Once the data is well prepared, you can begin training:

python train_STE.py --batchSize 4 \
  --dataRoot 'your path' \
  --modelsSavePath 'your path' \
  --logPath 'your path'  \

Testing and evaluation

If you want to predict the results, run:

python test_image_STE.py --dataRoot 'your path'  \
            --batchSize 1 \
            --pretrain 'your path' \
            --savePath 'your path'

To evaluate the results:

python evaluatuion.py --target_path 'results_path' --gt_path 'labels_path'

Acknowledge

The repository is benefit a lot from LBAM and GatedConv. Thanks a lot for their excellent work.
