2352 results about "Document processing" patented technology

Document processing involves the conversion of typed and handwritten text on paper-based & electronic documents (e.g., scanned image of a document) into electronic information using one of, or a combination of, intelligent character recognition (ICR), optical character recognition (OCR) and experienced data entry clerks.

System and method for document processing

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to document processing, and more particularly to systems and methods that can utilize relative positions between the content of the document and a decodable indicia affixed to the document. In one embodiment, indicia reading terminals are provided that include an imaging module for capturing a frame of image data of a document. The document can include one or more decodable indicia such as a form barcode and various content fields, which delineate particular content of the document. The form barcode can include information respecting the form design and form design data. This information can be used to process the content of the document such as by providing coordinates or similar location and positioning metrics for use in processing the content of the document. In one example, the frame of image data is analyzed to identify the form barcode, from which the relative location of the content fields can be discerned without extensive processing of the frame of image data.

System and method for analysis and clustering of documents for search engine

A system and method for searching documents in a data source and more particularly, to a system and method for analyzing and clustering of documents for a search engine. The system and method includes analyzing and processing documents to secure the infrastructure and standards for optimal document processing. By incorporating Computational Intelligence (CI) and statistical methods, the document information is analyzed and clustered using novel techniques for knowledge extraction. A comprehensive dictionary is built based on the keywords identified by the these techniques from the entire text of the document. The text is parsed for keywords or the number of its occurrences and the context in which the word appears in the documents. The whole document is identified by the knowledge that is represented in its contents. Based on such knowledge extracted from all the documents, the documents are clustered into meaningful groups in a catalog tree. The results of document analysis and clustering information are stored in a database.

Computer-implemented system and method for text-based document processing

A computer-implemented system and method for processing text-based documents. A frequency of terms data set is generated for the terms appearing in the documents. Singular value decomposition is performed upon the frequency of terms data set in order to form projections of the terms and documents into a reduced dimensional subspace. The projections are normalized, and the normalized projections are used to analyze the documents.

Decision-support expert system and methods for real-time exploitation of documents in non-english languages

A method for real-time exploitation of documents in non-English languages includes processing an input document in into a processed input document, extracting ontology elements from the processed input document to obtain a document digest (DD), statistically scoring each DD to obtain a DD with category scores, refining the DD and the category scores to obtain a summary of each document in the form of a refined DD with refined category scores. The summary allows a user to estimate in real-time if the input document warrants added attention.

Selective data encryption using style sheet processing for decryption by a client proxy

A method, system, and computer program product for selectively encrypting one or more elements of a document using style sheet processing. Disclosed is a policy-driven augmented style sheet processor (e.g. an Extensible Stylesheet Language, or ā€œXSLā€, processor) that creates a selectively-encrypted document (e.g. an Extensible Markup Language, or ā€œXMLā€, document) carrying key-distribution material, such that by using an augmented document processor (e.g. an augmented XML processing engine), an agent can recover only the information elements for which it is authorized. The Document Type Definition (DTD) or schema associated with a document is modified, such that the DTD or schema specifies a reference to stored security policy to be applied to document elements. Each document element may specify a different security policy, such that the different elements of a single document can be encrypted differently (and, some elements may remain unencrypted). The key distribution material enables a document to be encrypted for decryption by an audience that is unknown at the time of document creation, and enables access to the distinct elements of a single encrypted document to be controlled for multiple users and / or groups of users. In this manner, group collaboration is improved by giving more people easier access to information for which they are authorized, while protecting sensitive data from unauthorized agents. A key recovery technique is also defined, whereby the entire document can be decrypted by an authorized agent regardless of how the different elements were originally encrypted and the access protections which were applied to those elements.

Document processing system and method

A target document (25) is generated by merging four source documents (2-5). There are three merge operations, an operation (10) for two source documents (2, 13), an operation (13) for an intermediate target document and a source document (4), and an operation (21) for a second intermediate target document and a final source document (5). In each merge operation one source document inherits from the other. An inheriting instruction is embedded within the inheriting document. Merging is performed by parsing a document (6, 8, 11, 20) into a hierarchical tree if it is not already in that form, and merging the trees. Matching nodes are identified and are combined or replaced according to a policy.

Image enabled reject repair for check processing capture

A method and apparatus for processing a plurality of financial documents, comprising, a document processor, wherein, for each financial document, the document processor captures data encoded on the financial document and an image of the financial document during a prime pass, and assigns a prime pass sequence number to each financial document. The apparatus includes a computer database in which the prime pass data and image is stored in association with the prime pass sequence number for the financial document. The document processor is adapted to determine whether the financial document should be rejected because the data and document image needs to be repaired or the data only needs to be repaired. If the data and image needs to be repaired, the document processor, or a desktop scanner / reader, recaptures the data and image, assigns a recapture sequence number to the financial document, and the recaptured data and image is stored in the computer database in association with the recapture sequence number. An image repair application is adapted to permit an operator to locate a prime pass image that matches the recaptured image, and to repair the document image by visually comparing the recaptured image with the prime pass image. The repaired document image is then stored in the computer database in association with the corresponding prime pass sequence number.

System and method for processing batches of documents

A method of processing documents by receiving at least a batch of documents and a separator card in an input receptacle of a document processing device. The separator card includes a conductive material disposed on one side, and a barcode indicative of the source of the batch of documents. The documents and separator card are transported via a transport mechanism past an evaluation unit and a field-effect sensor, respectively. The document processing device evaluates each document, determines whether the document meets or fails predetermined criteria, and detects the presence of the conductive material when a separator card is transported past the sensor. The source identification information from each separator card is entered into a memory of the document processing device after all the documents from the corresponding batch of documents have met the predetermined criteria. Feeder operation is paused between each batch long enough to verify that the previous batch closed successfully. Pausing feeder operation to address document anomalies before subsequent batches are processed promotes batch integrity and reduces operator confusion.
