All-in-One Multilingual Scene Text Recognition with Script-aware Mixture-of-Experts

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 21, 2026 · UTC

Multilingual scene text recognition (STR) remains challenging due to the scarcity of training data for most languages and the difficulty of serving diverse scripts within a single model. Existing solutions either deploy one recognizer per language, inflating cost and introducing error accumulation, or rely on massive vision-language models (VLMs) that are expensive and still inaccurate on many scripts. In this work, we pursue an all-in-one multilingual recognizer that is simpler than per-language experts, lighter than VLMs, and more accurate than both. First, we construct TextMuSS-10M, a large
