In this tutorial, we will introduce the detailed steps of deploying PaddleOCR ultra-lightweight Chinese detection and recognition models on the server side.
This chapter introduces the C++ deployment method of the PaddleOCR model, and the corresponding python predictive deployment method refers to [document](../../doc/doc_ch/inference.md).
C++ is better than python in terms of performance calculation. Therefore, in most CPU and GPU deployment scenarios, C++ deployment is mostly used.
This section will introduce how to configure the C++ environment and complete it in the Linux\Windows (CPU\GPU) environment
PaddleOCR model deployment.

* Paddle2.0.0 inference model library is recommended for this toturial.
Generally, a more complex model would achive better performance in the task, but it also leads to some redundancy in the model. Model Pruning is a technique that reduces this redundancy by removing the sub-models in the neural network model, so as to reduce model calculation complexity and improve model inference performance.
This example uses PaddleSlim provided[APIs of Pruning](https://paddlepaddle.github.io/PaddleSlim/api/prune_api/) to compress the OCR model.
[PaddleSlim](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSlim), an open source library which integrates model pruning, quantization (including quantization training and offline quantization), distillation, neural network architecture search, and many other commonly used and leading model compression technique in the industry.
It is recommended that you could understand following pages before reading this example：
1.[PaddleOCR training methods](../../../doc/doc_ch/quickstart.md)
2.[The demo of prune](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSlim/blob/release%2F2.0.0/docs/zh_cn/tutorials/pruning/dygraph/filter_pruning.md)
PaddleOCR also provides a series of (models)[../../../doc/doc_en/models_list_en.md]. Developers can choose their own models or use their own models according to their needs.
### 3. Pruning sensitivity analysis
After the pre-training model is loaded, sensitivity analysis is performed on each network layer of the model to understand the redundancy of each network layer, and save a sensitivity file which named: sen.pickle. After that, user could load the sensitivity file via the [methods provided by PaddleSlim](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSlim/blob/develop/paddleslim/prune/sensitive.py#L221) and determining the pruning ratio of each network layer automatically. For specific details of sensitivity analysis, see：[Sensitivity analysis](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSlim/blob/develop/docs/zh_cn/tutorials/image_classification_sensitivity_analysis_tutorial.md)
The function would return a dict after loading the sensitivity file. The keys of the dict are name of parameters in each layer. And the value of key is the information about pruning sensitivity of correspoding layer. In example, pruning 10% filter of the layer corresponding to conv10_expand_weights would lead to 0.65% degradation of model performance. The details could be seen at: [Sensitivity analysis](https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSlim/blob/develop/docs/zh_cn/algo/algo.md#2-%E5%8D%B7%E7%A7%AF%E6%A0%B8%E5%89%AA%E8%A3%81%E5%8E%9F%E7%90%86)
