  • Patent number: 11631265
    Abstract: Methods and systems for transforming at least a portion of a physical document into digital data. One method includes obtaining a first plurality of data items automatically extracted from a first physical document and a validated value for a data field. The method also includes automatically identifying a first linked data item included in the first plurality of data items that is linked to the validated value and setting a physical position included in a rule to the physical position of the first linked data item. In addition, the method includes obtaining a second plurality of data items automatically extracted from a second physical document and automatically identifying a candidate data item included in the second plurality of data items based on the rule. Furthermore, the method includes automatically populating a value for the data field for the second physical document based on the candidate data item.

  • Patent number: 11132407
    Abstract: A system for separating documents in a batch of unseparated documents. In one example, the system comprises a scanner, a display, and an electronic processor. In another example, the system comprises an electronic source, a display, and an electronic processor. The electronic processor is configured to receive, as input, a batch of unseparated documents and apply, image processing to each page in the batch. The electronic processor is also configured to determine, for each pair of consecutive pages in the batch of documents, a probability that pages of the pair of consecutive pages belong to different documents using a predictive model. The electronic processor is further configured to generate a batch of separated documents by providing an indication of a document boundary if the probability generated by the predictive model is above a predetermined threshold.
