  • Publication number: 20100246999
    Abstract: An editing system for editing and verifying data extracted from paper documents or electronic image files comprises an editing subsystem that processes the extracted data for editing according to data type and a validation subsystem. The editing subsystem comprises an automated processing utility that compares extracted data with at least one lexicon to determine if correction is required, a character level editing utility that presents the extracted data at the character level in an editable form for checking and correction at the character level, an element level editing utility for checking and correction at the element level, and a full form element level editing utility for checking and correction at the full form element level. The validation subsystem assists in achieving required accuracy rates and comprises a consistency check utility, an adjudication utility, and an optional statistical verification utility.

  • Publication number: 20070168382
    Abstract: Electronic extraction of information from fields within documents comprises identifying a document by comparison to a template library, identifying data fields based on size and position, extracting data from the fields, and applying recognition. Line identification employs shaded region identification, line capture and gap filling, line segment clustering, and optional line rotation. Fingerprinting methods compare line segments found in a document with line definitions for templates to identify the template that best matches the document. Templates for new form types are defined by identifying and determining a location and size for lines, boxes, or shaded regions located within the form. Form fields based on location are then defined, any text within each field is recognized, and field identifiers and content descriptors are assigned and stored to define the template.
