+# EasyOCR ONNX Models - JPQD Quantized
+
+This repository contains ONNX versions of EasyOCR models optimized with JPQD (Joint Pruning, Quantization, and Distillation) quantization for efficient inference.
+
+## 📋 Model Overview
+
+EasyOCR is a ready-to-use OCR with 80+ supported languages and all popular writing scripts including Latin, Chinese, Arabic, Devanagari, Cyrillic and etc. This repository provides optimized ONNX versions of the core EasyOCR models.
+
+### Available Models
+
+| Model | Original Size | Optimized Size | Compression Ratio | Description |

+| `latin_g2_jpqd.onnx` | 14.7 MB | 8.5 MB | 3.97x | Latin text recognition (CRNN) |
+
+**Total size reduction**: 108.4 MB → 17.0 MB (**6.4x compression**)
+
+## 🚀 Quick Start
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install onnxruntime opencv-python numpy pillow
+```
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```python
+import onnxruntime as ort
+import cv2
+import numpy as np
+from PIL import Image
+
+# Load models
+text_detector = ort.InferenceSession("craft_mlt_25k_jpqd.onnx")
+text_recognizer = ort.InferenceSession("english_g2_jpqd.onnx")  # or latin_g2_jpqd.onnx
+
+# Load and preprocess image
+image = cv2.imread("your_image.jpg")
+image_rgb = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
+
+# Text Detection
+def detect_text(image, model):
+    # Preprocess for CRAFT (640x640, RGB, normalized)
+    h, w = image.shape[:2]
+    input_size = 640
+    image_resized = cv2.resize(image, (input_size, input_size))
+    image_norm = image_resized.astype(np.float32) / 255.0
+    image_norm = np.transpose(image_norm, (2, 0, 1))  # HWC to CHW
+    image_batch = np.expand_dims(image_norm, axis=0)
+    
+    # Run inference
+    outputs = model.run(None, {"input": image_batch})
+    return outputs[0]
+
+# Text Recognition
+def recognize_text(text_region, model):
+    # Preprocess for CRNN (32x100, grayscale, normalized)
+    gray = cv2.cvtColor(text_region, cv2.COLOR_RGB2GRAY)
+    resized = cv2.resize(gray, (100, 32))
+    normalized = resized.astype(np.float32) / 255.0
+    input_batch = np.expand_dims(np.expand_dims(normalized, axis=0), axis=0)
+    
+    # Run inference
+    outputs = model.run(None, {"input": input_batch})
+    return outputs[0]
+
+# Example usage
+detection_result = detect_text(image_rgb, text_detector)
+print("Text detection completed!")
+
+# For text recognition, you would extract text regions from detection_result
+# and pass them through the recognition model
+```
