Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically decomposing table-structured electronic documents are described. The systems and methods of this invention generally comprise utilizing mathematical relationships, together with textual and positional clues to the mathematical relationships, in a collaborative manner, to derive a mathematical construct of the table-structured document. Embodiments of this invention automatically process a multitude of table-structured documents, thereby eliminating the need for human interaction with such documents in many cases and lowering the costs associated with processing such documents.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically understanding, decomposing, extracting, validating and reformatting unstructured tabular information into intermediate structured representations of the information contained therein are described. No constraints are placed on the origin or format of these documents when originally submitted. Furthermore, no pre-created scripts are required to map the information contained in the submitted documents. The systems and methods of this invention generally comprise obtaining an electronic document, automatically analyzing and understanding the contents of the document, extracting information from the document, categorizing the information, and then creating an intermediate structured representation of the information contained therein. The intermediate structured representations may then be easily converted for use in a myriad of back-end systems.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically understanding and decomposing unstructured tabular information are described. No constraints are placed on the origin or format of these documents when originally submitted; the documents may be in an unstructured and/or nonstandard format, and they may be electronic or flat files. The systems and methods of this invention generally comprise obtaining an electronic ASCII-formatted document, analyzing and understanding the contents of the document, and decomposing the information contained in the document, utilizing a variety of algorithms and heuristics to do this. Embodiments of this invention automatically process a multitude of financial documents, thereby eliminating the need for human interaction with such documents in many cases and lowering the costs associated with processing such documents.
