# Table Cell Detection Module Usage Tutorial

## 1. Overview

The Table Cell Detection Module is a key component of the table recognition task, responsible for locating and marking each cell region in table images. The performance of this module directly affects the accuracy and efficiency of the entire table recognition process. The Table Cell Detection Module typically outputs bounding boxes for each cell region, which are then passed as input to the table recognition pipeline for further processing.

## 2. Supported Model List

> The inference time only includes the model inference time and does not include the time for pre- or post-processing. The "Regular Mode" values correspond to the local <code>paddle_static</code> inference engine.

## 3. Quick Start

> ❗ Before starting quickly, please first install the PaddleOCR wheel package. For details, please refer to the [installation tutorial](../installation.en.md).

You can quickly experience it with one command:

```bash
paddleocr table_cells_detection -i https://paddle-model-ecology.bj.bcebos.com/paddlex/imgs/demo_image/table_recognition.jpg

```

The example above uses the <code>paddle_static</code> inference engine by default. To run it, first install PaddlePaddle by following [PaddlePaddle Framework Installation](../paddlepaddle_installation.en.md).

If you choose `transformers` as the inference engine, make sure the Transformers environment is configured, and then run the following command:

```bash
# Use the transformers engine for inference
paddleocr table_cells_detection -i https://paddle-model-ecology.bj.bcebos.com/paddlex/imgs/demo_image/table_recognition.jpg \
    --engine transformers
```

If you choose `onnxruntime` as the inference engine, make sure the ONNX Runtime environment is configured, and then run the following command:

```bash
# Use the onnxruntime engine for inference
paddleocr table_cells_detection -i https://paddle-model-ecology.bj.bcebos.com/paddlex/imgs/demo_image/table_recognition.jpg \
    --engine onnxruntime
```

In most scenarios, the default `paddle_static` inference engine delivers better inference performance and is the recommended first choice.

<b>Note: </b>The official models would be download from HuggingFace by default. If can't access to HuggingFace, please set the environment variable `PADDLE_PDX_MODEL_SOURCE="BOS"` to change the model source to BOS. In the future, more model sources will be supported.

You can also integrate model inference from the table cell detection module into your project. Before running the following code, please download the [sample image](https://paddle-model-ecology.bj.bcebos.com/paddlex/imgs/demo_image/table_recognition.jpg) locally.

```python
from paddleocr import TableCellsDetection
model = TableCellsDetection(model_name="RT-DETR-L_wired_table_cell_det")
output = model.predict("table_recognition.jpg", threshold=0.3, batch_size=1)
for res in output:
    res.print(json_format=False)
    res.save_to_img("./output/")
    res.save_to_json("./output/res.json")
```

The example above uses the <code>paddle_static</code> inference engine by default. To run it, first install PaddlePaddle by following [PaddlePaddle Framework Installation](../paddlepaddle_installation.en.md).

If you choose `transformers` as the inference engine, make sure the Transformers environment is configured, and then run the following code:

```python
from paddleocr import TableCellsDetection
model = TableCellsDetection(
    model_name="RT-DETR-L_wired_table_cell_det",
    engine="transformers",
)
output = model.predict("table_recognition.jpg", threshold=0.3, batch_size=1)
for res in output:
    res.print(json_format=False)
    res.save_to_img("./output/")
    res.save_to_json("./output/res.json")
```

If you choose `onnxruntime` as the inference engine, make sure the ONNX Runtime environment is configured, and then run the following code:

```python
from paddleocr import TableCellsDetection
model = TableCellsDetection(
    model_name="RT-DETR-L_wired_table_cell_det",
    engine="onnxruntime",
)
output = model.predict("table_recognition.jpg", threshold=0.3, batch_size=1)
for res in output:
    res.print(json_format=False)
    res.save_to_img("./output/")
    res.save_to_json("./output/res.json")
```

In most scenarios, the default `paddle_static` inference engine delivers better inference performance and is the recommended first choice.

If you want to use the trained model with the `paddle_dynamic` or `transformers` engine, refer to the [Weight Conversion](#52-weight-conversion) section in the [Inference Engine](#5-inference-engine) section below to convert the model from the `pdparams` format to the `safetensors` format using PaddleX.

After running, the result obtained is:

```

* Call the <code>predict()</code> method of the table cell detection model for inference prediction. This method will return a result list. Additionally, this module also provides a <code>predict_iter()</code> method. Both methods are consistent in terms of parameter acceptance and result return. The difference is that <code>predict_iter()</code> returns a <code>generator</code>, which can process and obtain prediction results step by step, suitable for handling large datasets or scenarios where memory saving is desired. You can choose to use either of these methods according to your actual needs. The <code>predict()</code> method has parameters <code>input</code>, <code>batch_size</code>, and <code>threshold</code>, with specific explanations as follows:

## 4. Secondary Development

Since PaddleOCR does not directly provide training for the table cell detection module, if you need to train a table cell detection model, you can refer to the [PaddleX Table Cell Detection Module Secondary Development](https://paddlepaddle.github.io/PaddleX/latest/en/module_usage/tutorials/ocr_modules/table_cells_detection.html#iv-secondary-development) section for training. The trained model can be seamlessly integrated into the PaddleOCR API for inference.

If you want to use the `paddle_dynamic` or `transformers` engine with the trained model, please refer to the [Weight Conversion](#52-weight-conversion) section in [Inference Engine](#5-inference-engine) later in this document to convert the model from the `pdparams` format to the `safetensors` format using PaddleX.

## 5. Inference Engine

For detailed descriptions, values, compatibility rules, and examples of the inference engine, please refer to <a href="../inference_deployment/local_inference/inference_engine.en.md">Inference Engine and Configuration Description</a>.

### 5.2 Weight Conversion

When using the inference engine, the system will automatically download the official pre-trained model. If you need to use a self-trained model with the `paddle_dynamic` or `transformers` engine, please refer to the [PaddleX Table Cell Detection Module Weight Conversion](https://paddlepaddle.github.io/PaddleX/latest/en/module_usage/tutorials/ocr_modules/table_cells_detection.html#442) section to convert the model from the `pdparams` format to the `safetensors` format using PaddleX. This allows seamless integration into the PaddleOCR API for inference. If you need to use a self-trained model with the `onnxruntime` engine, refer to [PaddleX Obtain ONNX Models](https://paddlepaddle.github.io/PaddleX/latest/pipeline_deploy/paddle2onnx.html) to obtain the ONNX model, so it can be seamlessly integrated into the PaddleOCR API for inference.
