Python 3.10 support

[bfontaine]

Hello, Right now the project explicitely excludes Python 3.10; is there a reason for that? Can we expected Python 3.10+ support in the future? Thanks in advance

I forked this to add support for python3.10 and new versions of tensorflow in the meantime. It works exactly the same as keras-ocr and it supports google colab new backend.

pip install image-ocr

Repo : image-ocr Example : Google Colab

@geo-tp did you consider making a pull request to this repo? I'm just wondering.

Are there any plans for keras-ocr to support Python 3.10 in the near future?

@geo-tp I'm getting the same error running your Colab notebook above (with Python 3.10) that I get when I try to run keras-ocr in Colab:

!pip install --force-reinstall -v "tensorflow==2.15.1" keras-ocr supports Python >= 3.6 and TensorFlow >= 2.0.0.
