Benefits of Infrrd’s Intelligent Data Capture platform

Image
“Intelligent data capture can achieve up to 95% accuracy and processes 12x faster than manual processing.” While traditional  OCR solution  may still be a better option for a few organizations, it fails to address critical challenges of graph extraction like identifying trends. Moreover, it also fails to address issues such as identifying overlapping graphs or axis scales and labels. Unlike OCR technology, the  IDC  platform is powered with AI-capabilities like  Machine Learning  and Natural Language Generator (NLG) to analyze the full population of data and identify outliers and expectations. It is these capabilities that enable entrepreneurs to draw a broader and deeper set of insights from visual representations. Once all the rules are in place, the data is extracted quickly and accurately, thereby increasing productivity and reducing the number of keystrokes required to perform the graph extraction task.  Intelligent Data Processing Infrrd’...

What is the best OCR extraction method on printed text?

Image
I spotted another interesting question on Quora related to  machine learning & OCR , here’s my answer: I will give you a consultant’s answer – you may not like it but here goes – “It depends”. The ‘best’  OCR extraction  method depends on the context of what you are trying to extract. My guess is that you are not talking about the OCR process itself. But, rather how to extract features out of the text that OCR spits out. ​There are two broad approaches for extraction depending on whether you know the kind of data you are dealing with (invoices, tax docs, grocery labels, etc) or you do not: DOMAIN-BASED OCR EXTRACTION This approach helps when you know beforehand the kind of data extraction you are after. Let’s say you were trying to extract features of wines from a set of wine ratings and notes that you have OCR-ed. Before you can do the feature extraction, you may consider running topic modeling algorithms on a large collection of existing wine notes to fig...

Here is How Infrrd OCR Tool Is Making A Difference

Image
When introduced,  Optical Character Recognition software  was considered to be a boon for businesses. Instead of manually transferring data from records, one could now simply extract data from them. Later they can enter it automatically into in-house systems. We can save hours of manual labor but there remains a caveat. Errors introduced during the extraction process remain in your system. Before we recognize and fix the errors it can stall the work for many hours. OCR scanners are prone to fail when one tries to extract data from old documents. Either the fading of the print or the lack of contrast can lead the software to incorrect recognition of patterns. Additionally, most online  OCR software  is designed to work with English as a language. But not everybody uses English as their first language. If you travel to Europe, the script remains the same but the language differs. A smart engine OCR should be able to pick up this difference in language and adapt its...
