Deepseek OCR is no longer state of the art. There are much better open source OCR models available now. ocrarena.ai maintains a leaderboard, and a number of other open source options like dots [1] or olmOCR [2] rank higher. | ||

I wasn't aware of dots when I wrote the blog post. This is really good to know!! I would like to try again with some newer models. | ||

you are comparing to DeepSeek's old OCR, there's DeepSeek-OCR2 which btw is amazing from my experimentations. https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-OCR-2 | ||

The article mentions choosing the model for its ability to parse math well. | ||
