I recently came across CRAFT wich appears to have come out of the ICDAR2017 Robust reading challenge.
It performed better than expected. I only tested a few images so please don't take my word for it.
That led me to PaddleOCR. There is still plenty of room for improvement but I found it way more convenient to use for my purposes than messing with Tesseract.

- amelius 5y agoI just tried it at [1] on the text of your comment and it replied with an empty result. Perhaps I should try more examples, but it doesn't look like it's ready yet. [1] https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/hub/scene/ocr https://www.paddlepaddle.org.cn/hub/scene/ocr
- theropost 5y agoThanks for the suggestions - I've tried Paddle before, however was looking for a local only version - seems like Paddle uses external sources (cn) for some of its OCR features, and unfortunately that won't work in this line of work
