Capsolver.com is an AI-powered service that specializes in solving various types of captchas automatically. It supports captchas such as reCAPTCHA V2, reCAPTCHA V3, hCaptcha, FunCaptcha, DataDome, AWS Captcha, Geetest, and Cloudflare Captcha / Challenge 5s, Imperva / Incapsula, among others.
For developers, Capsolver offers API integration options detailed in their documentation, facilitating the integration of captcha solving into applications. They also provide browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox, making it easy to use their service directly within a browser. Different pricing packages are available to accommodate varying needs, ensuring flexibility for users.
With simulated unsupervised learning, breaking captchas has never been easier. There is no need to label any captchas manually for convnet. By using a captcha synthesizer and a refiner trained with GAN, it's feasible to generate synthesized training pairs for classifying captchas.
Correctly label 10000 out of 15000 captcha or 90% per character.
Here we download some captchas from the contest website. Each batch has 1000 captchas. We'll use 20000 so 20 batches.

Each challenge file is actually a json object containing 1000 base64 encoded jpg image file. So for each of these challenge files, we decompress each base64 strs into a jpeg and put that under a seprate folder.

Instead of RGB, binarized image saves significant compute. Here we hardcode a threshold and iterate over each pixel to obtain a binary image.
def gray(img_path):
# convert to grayscale, then binarize
img = Image.open(img_path).convert("L")
img = img.point(lambda x: 255 if x > 200 or x == 0 else x) # value found through T&E
img = img.point(lambda x: 0 if x < 255 else 255, "1")
img.save(img_path)
for img_path in IMG_FNAMES:
gray(img_path)im = Image.open(example_image_path)

As you may have noticed, all the captchas share the same horizontal lines. Since this is a contest, it was a function of participant's username. In the real world, these noises can be filtered out using morphological transformation with OpenCV.
We will extract and save the lines(noise) for later use. Here we average all 20000 captchas and set a threshold as above. Another method is using a bit mask (&=) to iteratively filter out surrounding black pixels i.e.
mask = np.ones((height, width))
for im in ims:
mask &= im
The effectiveness of bit mask depends on how clean the binarized data is. With the averaging method, some error is allowed.
import numpy as np
WIDTH, HEIGHT = im.size
MASK_DIR = "avg.png"def generateMask():
N=1000*NUM_CHALLENGES
arr=np.zeros((HEIGHT, WIDTH),np.float)
for fname in IMG_FNAMES:
imarr=np.array(Image.open(fname),dtype=np.float)
arr=arr+imarr/N
arr=np.array(np.round(arr),dtype=np.uint8)
out=Image.fromarray(arr,mode="L")
out.save(MASK_DIR)
generateMask()im = Image.open(MASK_DIR) # ok this can be done with binary mask: &=
im
im = Image.open(MASK_DIR)
im = im.point(lambda x:255 if x > 230 else x)
im = im.point(lambda x:0 if x<255 else 255, "1")

)Now that we have processed all the real captchas, we need to define a generator that outputs (captcha, label) pairs where the captchas should look almost like the real ones.
We filter out the outliers that contain overlapping characters.

Plug all the data in an MNIST-like classifier and call it a day. Unfortunately, it's not that simple.
I actually spent a long time fine-tuning the network but accuracy plateued around 55% sampled. The passing requirement is 10000 out of 15000 submitted or 90% accuracy or 66% per char. I was facing a dilemma: tune the model even further or manually label x amount of data:
0.55 * (15000-x) + x = 10000
x = 3888
Obviously I am not going to label 4000 captchas and break my neck in the process.
Meanwhile, there happened a burnt out guy who decided to label all 10000 captchas. This dilligent dude was 2000 in. I asked if he is willing to collaborate on a solution. It's almost like he didn't want to label captchas anymore. He agreed immediately.
Using the same model, accuracy immediately shot up to 95% and we both qualified for HackMIT.
/aside
After the contest, I perfected the model and got 95% without labelling a single image. Here is the model for SimGAN:
There are three components to the network:
The refiner network, Rθ, is a residual network (ResNet). It modifies the synthetic image on a pixel level, rather than holistically modifying the image content, preserving the global structure and annotations.
The discriminator network Dφ, is a simple ConvNet that contains 5 conv layers and 2 max-pooling layers. It's abinary classifier that outputs whether a captcha is synthesized or real.
Pipe the refined image into discriminator.

As you can see below, we no longer have the cookie-cutter fonts. There are quite a few artifacts that did not exist before refinement. The edges are blurred and noisy - which is impossible to simulate heuristically. And it is exactly these tiny things that renders MNIST-like convnet useless.
Now the refined results are basically the original captchas.

Obviously you will need to keep training as the per-character accuracy is only 80%
