  • Patent number: 11949828
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to acquire, from a read image, a predetermined item, and a value corresponding to the item, the read image being obtained by reading a document and being subjected, prior to acquisition of the item and the value, to preprocessing and character recognition. Further, the processor is configured to, in response to not successfully acquiring at least one of the item and the value, change a setting on the preprocessing or a setting on the character recognition in accordance with the acquisition or non-acquisition state of the item and the value, and then perform the preprocessing or the character recognition. In response to not successfully acquiring at least one of the item and the value, the processor is further configured to identify where the item and the value are located.

  • Patent number: 9465986
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a reading unit, a recognition unit, a table-of-contents analysis unit, a main-body analysis unit, and a creation unit. The reading unit reads a table of contents page and a main body page as images. The recognition unit performs character recognition on the images of the table of contents and main body pages. The table-of-contents analysis unit analyzes the image of the table of contents page, and acquires at least a heading item in accordance with a result of character recognition. The main-body analysis unit analyzes the image of the main body page, and associates an image including the heading item with the heading item in accordance with a result of character recognition. The creation unit creates electronic bookmarked information in which bookmark information for associating the heading item with the image of the main body page is added to electronic information of the read images.

  • Patent number: 9042668
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes the following elements. A document-type determining unit determines what type of document a document is on the basis of read information obtained as a result of reading the document by using a document reader. A compression-format setting unit sets, on the basis of the type of document determined by the document-type determining unit, a compression format used for generating image data from the read information. A generator compresses the read information by using the compression format set by the compression-format setting unit so as to generate image data corresponding to the document.
