+ # AsterOCR: Vietnamese Neural Optical Character Recognition Engine
32
+
33
+ AsterOCR is a non-autoregressive neural Optical Character Recognition engine designed specifically for Vietnamese typography, administrative records (Citizen Identity Cards, passports, driving licenses), financial invoices, and smartphone document captures.
34
+
35
+ AsterOCR replaces legacy autoregressive Transformer models with an end-to-end convolutional-recurrent architecture accelerated via ONNX Runtime and PyTorch, delivering sub-60ms single-line inference on standard CPUs.

106
+ ## 4. Mathematical Formulations
107
+
108
+ ### 4.1. High-Pass Spatial Feature Stem (HP-Stem)
109
+ Standard convolutional downsampling kernels act as low-pass filters, frequently obliterating subtle Vietnamese diacritics. HP-Stem introduces a learnable residual high-pass kernel $K_{hp}$:
110
+
111
+ $$F_{stem}(X) = \text{Conv}_{3\times3}(X) + \gamma \cdot (X * K_{hp})$$
112
+
113
+ where $\gamma$ is a dynamic scalar parameter amplifying edge gradients of high-frequency diacritic strokes before entering the pooling pyramid.
114
+
115
+ ### 4.2. Inverted Residual with Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE-ResNet)
116
+ To suppress background paper discoloration, scanner artifacts, and watermark textures, AsterNet incorporates SE channel gating:
117
+
118
+ $$z_c = \frac{1}{H \times W} \sum_{i=1}^H \sum_{j=1}^W u_c(i, j)$$
119
+
120
+ $$s = \sigma\left(W_2 \cdot \text{ReLU}(W_1 z)\right)$$
121
+
122
+ $$\tilde{X}_c = s_c \cdot u_c$$
123
+
124
+ ### 4.3. Contrast-Based Auto-Polarity Engine
125
+ Traditional CTC decoders fail on inverted text strips (white text on dark backgrounds, camera timestamps, dark mode). AsterOCR implements a mathematical contrast polarity check before tensor normalization:
126
+
127
+ $$\Delta_{bright} = P_{90}(X_{center}) - \text{Median}(X_{border})$$
128
+
129
+ $$\Delta_{dark} = \text{Median}(X_{border}) - P_{10}(X_{center})$$
130
+
131
+ $$\text{If } (\Delta_{bright} > \Delta_{dark} \text{ and } \Delta_{bright} > 20) \implies X \leftarrow (255 - X)$$
132
+
133

135
+ ## 5. Quickstart (Python)
136
+

+
139
+ ```bash
140
+ pip install asterocr
141

144
+
145
+ ### 5.2. Python API
146
+
147
+ ```python
148
+ from asterocr import AsterOCR
149
+
150
+ # Initialize engine (automatically fetches ONNX weights on first run)
151
+ ocr = AsterOCR()
152
+
153
+ # Recognize text from file path, PIL Image, bytes, or numpy array
154
+ text = ocr.predict("path/to/invoice.jpg")
155
+ print(text)
156
+ # Output: CỘNG HÒA XÃ HỘI CHỦ NGHĨA VIỆT NAM
157
+ ```
158
+
159
+ ### 5.3. Batch Recognition
160
+
161
+ ```python
162
+ results = ocr.predict_batch([
163
+ "line_01.jpg",
164
+ "line_02.jpg",
165
+ "line_03.jpg"
166
+ ])
167
+ for line in results:
168
+ print(line)
169
+ ```
170
+
171

76
+ ## 4. Mathematical Formulations
77
+
78
+ ### 4.1. High-Pass Spatial Feature Stem (HP-Stem)
79
+ Standard convolutional downsampling kernels act as low-pass filters, frequently obliterating subtle Vietnamese diacritics. HP-Stem introduces a learnable residual high-pass kernel $K_{hp}$:
80
+
81
+ $$F_{stem}(X) = \text{Conv}_{3\times3}(X) + \gamma \cdot (X * K_{hp})$$
82
+
83
+ where $\gamma$ is a dynamic scalar parameter amplifying edge gradients of high-frequency diacritic strokes before entering the pooling pyramid.
84
+
85
+ ### 4.2. Inverted Residual with Squeeze-and-Excitation (SE-ResNet)
86
+ To suppress background paper discoloration, scanner artifacts, and watermark textures, AsterNet incorporates SE channel gating:
87
+
88
+ $$z_c = \frac{1}{H \times W} \sum_{i=1}^H \sum_{j=1}^W u_c(i, j)$$
89
+
90
+ $$s = \sigma\left(W_2 \cdot \text{ReLU}(W_1 z)\right)$$
91
+
92
+ $$\tilde{X}_c = s_c \cdot u_c$$
93
+
94
+ ### 4.3. Contrast-Based Auto-Polarity Engine
95
+ Traditional CTC decoders fail on inverted text strips (white text on dark backgrounds, camera timestamps, dark mode). AsterOCR implements a mathematical contrast polarity check before tensor normalization:
96
+
97
+ $$\Delta_{bright} = P_{90}(X_{center}) - \text{Median}(X_{border})$$
98
+
99
+ $$\Delta_{dark} = \text{Median}(X_{border}) - P_{10}(X_{center})$$
100
+
101
+ $$\text{If } (\Delta_{bright} > \Delta_{dark} \text{ and } \Delta_{bright} > 20) \implies X \leftarrow (255 - X)$$
102
+
103

104
+
105
+ ## 5. Quickstart (Python)
106
+
107
+ ### 5.1. Installation
108
+
109
+ ```bash
110
+ pip install asterocr
111
+ ```
112
+
113
+ *(No heavy PyTorch installation required by default. Runs using high-performance ONNX Runtime.)*
114
+
115
+ ### 5.2. Python API
116
+
117
+ ```python
118
+ from asterocr import AsterOCR
119
+
120
+ # Initialize engine (automatically fetches ONNX weights on first run)
121
+ ocr = AsterOCR()
122
+
123
+ # Recognize text from file path, PIL Image, bytes, or numpy array
124
+ text = ocr.predict("path/to/invoice.jpg")
125
+ print(text)
126
+ # Output: CỘNG HÒA XÃ HỘI CHỦ NGHĨA VIỆT NAM
127
+ ```
128
+
129
+ ### 5.3. Batch Recognition
130
+
131
+ ```python
132
+ results = ocr.predict_batch([
133
+ "line_01.jpg",
134
+ "line_02.jpg",
135
+ "line_03.jpg"
136
+ ])
137
+ for line in results:
138
+ print(line)
139
+ ```
140
+
141
+ ### 5.4. Command Line Interface (CLI)
142
+
143
+ ```bash
144
+ asterocr path/to/image.jpg
145
+ ```
