Patent number: 9740692Abstract: Disclosed are systems, computer-readable mediums, and methods for creating a flexible structure description. To create the flexible structure description an image of a document of a particular document type that contains a table is received. An entry describing an item in the table is received. Title elements within the document are searched for based upon the entry. Data fields and anchor elements are detected for the entry. A flexible structure description for the particular document type is generated that includes a set of search elements for each data field in the image of the document and the title elements. The flexible structure description is matched against the image. Data from the image is extracted based upon the matching of the flexible structure description against the image.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2014Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: ABBYY Development LLCInventors: Sergei Golubev, Irene Filimonova, Sergey Zlobin

Patent number: 9633257Abstract: Automatic classification of different types of documents is disclosed. An image of a form or document is captured. The document is assigned to one or more type definitions by identifying one or more objects within the image of the document. A matching model is selected via identification of the document image. In the case of multiple identifications, a profound analysis of the document type is performed—either automatically or manually. An automatic classifier may be trained with document samples of each of a plurality of document classes or document types where the types are known in advance or a system of classes may be formed automatically without a priori information about types of samples. An automatic classifier determines possible features and calculates a range of feature values and possible other feature parameters for each type or class of document. A decision tree, based on rules specified by a user, may be used for classifying documents.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2014Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: ABBYY DEVELOPMENT LLCInventors: Irina Filimonova, Sergey Zlobin, Andrey Myakutin

Patent number: 7881561Abstract: The present invention relates generally to an optical character recognition of machine-readable forms, and in particular to a verification of a direction of spatial orientation and a definition of a form type of the document electronic image. The goals of the invention are achieved by preliminarily assigning one or more form objects as elements composing a graphic image unambiguously defining its direction of spatial orientation. Similarly, one or more form objects are preliminarily assigned as elements composing a graphic image unambiguously defining its type. The direction of spatial orientation and the type of the form are verified via identification of said images. The models of graphic images either for verification the direction of spatial orientation or for defining the form type are stored in a special data storage means, one of the embodiment of which is form model description.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2003Date of Patent: February 1, 2011Assignee: Abbyy Software Ltd.Inventors: Konstantin Zuev, Irina Filimonova, Sergey Zlobin
