Using Google Colab, I wrote the following code. I utilized Python. I intended to import an image file from my computer and then use Tesseract OCR to recignize the characters in the image.
After running the following code on colab, the error message: AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'mode' appeared. Although there are same cases on the Internet with the error message of "'dict' object has no attribute '~'", but I couldn't find any case that was regarding the attribute "mode."
Could you please advise me how to improve my code?
The code I wrote
!apt install tesseract-ocr libtesseract-dev tesseract-ocr-jpn
!pip install pyocr
from PIL import Image
import pyocr
import cv2
from google.colab.patches import cv2_imshow
from google.colab import files
uploaded=files.upload()
tools=pyocr.get_available_tools()
print(tools)
tool=tools[0]
print(tool.get_name())
txt1 = tool.image_to_string(
uploaded,
lang='jpn+eng',
builder=pyocr.builders.TextBuilder(tesseract_layout=6)
)
The error message showed by colab
AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last)
