Add smart institution name cleaning to handle OCR artifacts like trailing
CMA codes that cause false negative matches.
Problem:
- PDF "重庆市财政局..._pages3-6.pdf" extracted institution with trailing CMA code
- "四川合泰与必摩适检测有限公司430334" vs "四川合泰与必摩适检测有限公司"
- Similarity: 70.0% → incorrectly classified as "no_match"
- The core institution name is actually identical
Solution:
- Add clean_institution_name() function to remove trailing artifacts:
* Remove 6+ digit numbers (CMA codes)
* Remove 11+ digit numbers (full CMA codes)
* Remove trailing punctuation and whitespace
- Enhance classify_match() with field_type parameter
- Apply cleaning for institution field comparisons
Results for test case:
- Before: 70.0% similarity, edit distance 6 → "no_match"
- After: 100.0% similarity, edit distance 0 → "exact"
This fix improves accuracy for cases where OCR accidentally captures
CMA codes or other numbers as part of the institution name.

- Add cv2.matchTemplate-based CMA logo detection functions
- Implement automatic fallback when primary OCR extraction fails or has low confidence (<0.6)
- Add dual-format OCR result parsing (legacy ocr() and predict() API)
- Fix PaddleOCR API compatibility (remove unsupported cls kwarg)
- Record extraction method in cma_method field (robust_ocr or template_matching)
- Generate debug ROI image (cma_template_match_roi.png) for verification
Key improvements:
1. Double verification mechanism for OCR failures
- When unwarp OCR fails (empty text), automatically try PaddleOCRVL backup on crop
- Fixes issue where correct seal was ignored due to unwarp image distortion
- Test result: 4% → 93.8% similarity on problematic PDFs
2. Institution name cleaning
- Remove unwanted suffixes: 检验检测专用章, 专用章, etc.
- Clean names before adding to results and similarity calculation
- Improves matching accuracy
3. Enhanced logging for institution selection
- Show all extracted institutions with similarity scores
- Track why specific institution was selected
- Better debugging and transparency
Example impact:
- Before: "成都虹之川科技有限公司" (wrong seal, 4% similarity)
- After: "中科测试技术(广东)集团有限公司" (correct seal, 93.8% similarity)

- Add extent limit (max 350°) to prevent polar unwarp distortion
- Add polygon count check (<3 polygons → use PaddleOCRVL backup)
- Add imwrite_safe() to handle Chinese paths on Windows
- Add --pdf-names parameter for targeted debugging
Fixes issue where seal extraction returned empty string when:
- Arc extent exceeded 360° causing severe image distortion
- Too few text polygons detected leading to inaccurate arc calculation
Test results:
- Before: 0% similarity (empty string)
- After: 52.4% similarity (partial extraction)

- Add PaddleOCRVL as optional OCR model for seal text recognition
- New parameter: --ocr-model {ppocr_v5,paddleocr_vl}
- PaddleOCRVL achieves 100% accuracy on test cases (vs 84% for PP-OCRv5)
- Backward compatible: defaults to PP-OCRv5
- Fix CMA recognition regression
- Ensure ocr_engine is always initialized for CMA extraction
- PaddleOCRVL only used for seal text, not CMA recognition
- Add comprehensive integration guide
- PADDLEOCRVL_INTEGRATION.md with usage examples
- test_paddleocr_vl_quick.py for validation
Implementation details:
- run_ocr_recognition_vl(): New function for PaddleOCRVL recognition
- extract_seals_and_institutions(): Enhanced with OCR model selection
- Automatic fallback to PP-OCRv5 if PaddleOCRVL unavailable
