🔬 Abstract

The DECIMER 2.2 project tackles the OCSR (Optical Chemical Structure Recognition) challenge using cutting-edge computational intelligence methods. Our goal? To provide an automated, open-source software solution for chemical image recognition.

We've supercharged DECIMER with Google's TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) to handle datasets of over 1 million images with lightning speed!
