  • Cognitive document image digitalization
    Patent number: 10592738
    Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The methods include, for instance: obtaining a document image with objects and identifying microblocks corresponding to each object. Analyzing a position of a microblock for collinearity with another microblock based on respective positional characteristics and adjustable collinearity parameters. Collinear microblocks are identified into a macroblock and computational data of a key-value pair is created from the macroblock. A heuristic confidence level is associated with the key-value pair. Also based on data cluster formation, a table may be classified and data extracted.
