I see the same suggestion in easyocr issues (export PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8). Are you working on a virtual environment? Are you 100% sure you are executing the same python which encoding is set to UTF-8? What is your OS? In Windows, according to Python docs PYTHONIOENCODING 'is ignored for interactive console buffers' (not sure what this means) unless PYTHONLEGACYWINDOWSSTDIO is also specified.

At a glance nothing seems to be wrong with your code. I recommend you to take things incrementally. Try to execute one line of the code at the time until you identify the error. Also, the error message you will see in the terminal will give you a lot of valuable information regarding the cause of the error.

I read and implement Computer vision papers every day....I would like to ask, on average, or roughly, how many papers did u have to read to feel like an actual expert in Computer Vision?

[@ComputerVisionEngineer]

😊 Hey! I am glad you find my videos useful! How many papers... mmm.... 🤔 when it comes to 'expertise' I would say the number of projects you work in is more important than the number of papers you read. Not sure how many projects I have been involved in so far, but they are many for sure! 💪💪

But yolov3 is a bit outdated right 😅... Where can I find yolov8 which was pre trained for license plate detection... I'm doing project for my college 🥲..they said yolo v3 is outdated

[@ComputerVisionEngineer]

Yeah, agreed, yolov3 is not the most recent version. Although I did notice a very good performance using this model. Yolov3 may be old but it is a very robust object detector. 💪 Try to find a yolov8 model on github, or... train your own model following the steps I describe in my video on how to train yolov8 on a custom dataset! 😃

Hello Boss, I have problem with NNPACK. When I try reading plate, I get answer: [W NNPACK.cpp:53] "Could not initialize NNPACK! Reason: Unsupported hardware." I heard that I must use cmake USE_NNPACK=0. Pycharm have option cmake?

[@ComputerVisionEngineer]

Hey, if you need to build PyTorch from source without NNPACK I don't think you can do it in Pycharm. You can find instructions on how to build it from source on PyTorch official repository. 😃💪

Hello how can I contact you

[@ComputerVisionEngineer]

Hey Okware, Currently, leaving a comment in a KZbin video is the best way to reach out to me. How can I help you? 🙂
