Abstract: Automated systems and methods for retrieving information from scanned documents are described herein. An example method includes reading a scanned document; and extracting a page image from the scanned document, where the page image includes text and structured data. The method also includes executing a structured data detection algorithm to detect the structured data contained in the page image and identify a plurality of elements of the structured data. Additionally, the method includes performing optical character recognition (OCR) to convert the text contained in the page image to first text data; and performing OCR to convert respective contents of each of the plurality of elements of the structured data to second text data. The method further includes executing a natural language processing (NLP) algorithm to retrieve information from the first and second text data.
