Lower the version of paddlepaddle from 2.2.0 to 2.1.3 and you’re done. Note that there are two commands to run:

python  tools/export_model.py -c configs/det/det_r50_vd_sast_totaltext.yml -o Global.checkpoints="./models/sast_r50_vd_total_text/best_accuracy" Global.save_inference_dir="./inference/det_sast_tt"

python3 tools/infer/predict_det.py --det_algorithm="SAST" --image_dir="./doc/imgs_en/img_10.jpg" --det_model_dir="./inference/det_sast_tt/" --det_sast_polygon=True --use_gpu=False

/home/PaddleOCR {release/2.3} python3 tools/infer/predict_det.py --det_algorithm="SAST" --image_dir="./doc/imgs_en/img623.jpg" --det_model_dir="./inference/det_sast_tt/" --det_sast_polygon=True --use_gpu=False
