Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| add gate to RCL (GRCL instead of RCL) (ablation) | GRCNN vs RCNN · IIIT5K and SVT | accuracy: e.g. 80.21 vs 78.94 on IIIT5K at 3 iters; 80.98 vs 79.76 on SVT | Helped |
| increase GRCL iterations from 1 to 3 (ablation) | GRCNN · IIIT5K and SVT | accuracy: IIIT5K 77.92 -> 80.21; SVT 78.67 -> 80.98 | Helped |
| replace GRCL with plain two-conv layers (no recurrence) (ablation) | feed-forward CNN · IIIT5K and SVT | accuracy: plain 77.21 vs GRCNN(1 iter) 77.92 on IIIT5K | Hurt |
| add peephole connections to BLSTM (all gates, LSTM-A) (ablation) | GRCNN-BLSTM sequence modeling · IIIT5K and SVT | accuracy: LSTM-A 76.52 vs no-peephole 77.92 on IIIT5K | Hurt |
| add peephole to input gate only (LSTM-I) (ablation) | BLSTM · IIIT5K and SVT | accuracy: 76.84 vs 77.92 on IIIT5K | Hurt |
| add peephole to forget gate only (LSTM-F) (ablation) | BLSTM · IIIT5K and SVT | accuracy: 77.26 vs 77.92 on IIIT5K | Hurt |
| add peephole to output gate only (LSTM-O) (ablation) | BLSTM · IIIT5K and SVT | accuracy: 76.91 vs 77.92 on IIIT5K; 78.65 vs 78.67 on SVT | Hurt |
| replace ResNet-20 feature extractor with GRCNN (T=5) in BLSTM framework | GRCNN-BLSTM vs ResNet-BLSTM · IIIT5K, SVT, IC03 | accuracy: IIIT5K 80.8 vs 79.2; SVT 81.5 vs 80.2; IC03 91.2 vs 89.9 | Helped |
| GRCNN-BLSTM (T=5) trained on Synth90k, no fine-tuning, compared to prior methods | GRCNN-BLSTM · IIIT5K, SVT, IC03 lexicon-free/constrained | accuracy: beats CRNN on IIIT5K-1k (95.6 vs 94.4) and IC03-Full (97.8 vs 97.6) but trails on SVT-50 (96.3 vs 96.4) and IC03-50 (98. | Mixed |
