# PP-OCRv6 Medium Text Detection

This Space runs [PaddlePaddle/PP-OCRv6_medium_det](https://huggingface.co/PaddlePaddle/PP-OCRv6_medium_det) — a lightweight 15.5M-parameter text detection model from the PaddleOCR team.

## What it does

Upload an image and the model will detect text regions, drawing bounding boxes around each detected text line. The model performs **detection only** (bounding boxes), not recognition (reading the characters).

## Details

- **Architecture**: LCNetV4 backbone + RepLKFPN neck
- **Parameters**: 15.5M
- **Detection Hmean**: 86.2%
