- Add license verification logic for Ascend plugin
- Handle different license-related exceptions with appropriate error messages
- Log success message with license expiration date if verification passes
- Fall back to CPU model if license verification fails or plugin is not available

- Update instructions for AI-generated titles optimization
- Use ast.literal_eval() instead of json.loads() for parsing completion content
- Refactor variable names and logging for better code readability- Add error handling for JSON decoding issues

fix: ut

Fix/caption match

- Add numpy version limit (<2.0.0) in the pip installation command for Windows CUDA acceleration
- Update both English and Chinese versions of the README

- Add installation of paddle_custom_npu wheel for Ascend NPU support
- Update Dockerfile to include new package installation step

fix: caption match algorithm

Update web_api

Also add some documentation.

fix(pdf_parse): Fixed the issue where some headings were missing in certain complex layouts.

docs(readme): update Docker run commands and environment setup

- Update calculate_contrast function to support both RGB and BGR image modes
- Add input validation for image mode in calculate_contrast function
- Modify usage of calculate_contrast function in OCR processing to specify image mode

- Increase batch size from 8 to 256 for language detection inference
- Add timing measurement for language detection process

- Rename empty_spans to need_ocr_spans for better clarity
- Add calculate_contrast function to measure image contrast
- Filter out low-contrast spans to improve OCR accuracy
- Update OCR processing workflow to use new filtering method
