My question is related to this post in the CSE Developer Blog:
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cse/2018/05/07/handwriting-detection-and-recognition-in-scanned-documents-using-azure-ml-package-computer-vision-azure-cognitive-services-ocr/

In the code presented in the document and repository, a Python package called CVTK is used, which contains functions to import for later use, such as Context, ObjectDetectionDataset and TFasterRCNN from the CVTK core, and detection_utils from utils.

I tried looking for the CVTK package but couldn't find it in the free Python packages or some other web page.

I only found the following package named in the same way, but it does not contain the functions mentioned above: https://pypi.org/project/cvtk/
Also a package called CNTK was found, but it seems deprecated, and only works for Python 3.6

I have tried to find it by the name of the functions that are used, but we did not find it either. Is it possible that this package has been updated and renamed as well as its features? If so, what is the name of the current package and the name of the new functions that would replace the code of the document and repository?

    @Jose Luis Carrasco @alex.montano

    Hello guys, I finally found the author and got confirmation that this package is not available now. The similar functions for your scenario is supported by Azure Custom Vision https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/custom-vision-service/

    Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your understanding.

    Regards,
    Yutong
