Smart Document Engine — high-performance software for automatic classification, recognition and analysis of documents and forms. The system helps to automate document management workflows and optimize document entry processes. Smart Document Engine quickly and securely scans and extracts the required data from various document types — standard and reporting forms, primary, business, statutory, financial, notarial, legal, insurance and banking documents, as well as standard questionnaires and forms of strict accountability.
The most important feature of Smart Document Engine is the ability to create specialized solutions for automatic processing, classification, recognition and analysis of documents and forms of various complexity required by particular customers. High-performance and accurate document recognition solutions, optimized for a specific data flow and business processes, will allow your organization to reduce costs and ease the workload processing, without compromising data security — the images are not transferred to any third-parties or their services.
Thanks to our state-of-the-art recognition and computer vision algorithms, compact deep neural network models with the Hough transform (HoughNet and HoughEncoder) and energy efficient GreenOCR® text recognition technology developed by our scientists and engineers, Smart Document Engine solves business document recognition tasks even on mobile phones, previously only high-performance servers managed to do it.
Thanks to Smart Engines technologies, a modern mobile phone scans a document stream from a specialized document scanner with a capacity of up to 30 pages per minute, previously only high-performance workstations or servers were able to do it. At the same time, the quality is on a high level and the solution ensures the best text recognition, digital and other document data accuracy. Thus, the recognition of a full-page tax certificate on Galaxy S10 takes less than 3 seconds. At the same time, the system quickly and precisely scans both scans and photos and automatically performs all the actions necessary for classification, data extraction and text recognition, robust to lighting conditions, geometric distortions and poor image quality.
Smart Engines software:
Documents with fixed layout are documents, various copies of which match when deleting the field details. Classic examples of fixed document forms are the medical absence excuse or machine-readable student examination forms. Smart Document Engine includes state-of-the-art algorithms for fast location and typization and of fixed-layout forms in scans, photos and video stream. The technology allows you to instantly detect and scan such documents, as well as verify their types.
Smart Document Engine allows to create solutions for scanning and analysis of documents such as power of attorney, agreements and contracts. With the Smart Document Engine solution it is possible to classify such documents, extract text or other details, verify signatures and stamps, and much more.
Smart Document Engine allows you to classify and recognize both individual images of documents, questionnaires and forms, as well as multi-page documents, or page sequences containing multiple documents. Page sequence processing allows you to simplify the stream scanning process, sort the stream and check the presence of the required documents (completeness check).
Smart Document Engine allows you to accurately and reliably recognize marks and checkboxes made both digitally and with a pen.
For high-quality processing of accounting, tax, banking and other documents, search and recognition of tabular data have been implemented in the Smart Document Engine system. Tables with a fixed structure, relational and non-relational, tables with a variable number of columns and table-like structured data recognition is supported.
While analyzing complex structured documents to identify significant phrases and paragraphs, as well as to detect incorrect changes in printed document texts, Smart Document Engine allows you to check the presence of keywords and keyphrases and monitor the integrity of the targeted paragraphs.
Smart Document Engine allows you to detect, locate and recognize blots, strikethrough, corrections and other markings in a document in order to control its validity and extract additional information.
Smart Document Engine allows you to determine both the document colour as a whole and its individual elements (stamps and signatures), thus, it allows to recognize a black-and-white document copy even when re-scanning or photographing.
Smart Document Engine allows you to extract handwritten fields and signatures, recognize handwritten numerical fields, and verify the presence of handwritten marks and signatures.
Flexible forms are documents, whose elements and details can change their position relative to one another. Classic examples of flexible forms are tax and accounting documents, such as bills, enterprise balance sheets, financial performance reports, payment orders, etc. Smart Document Engine quickly identifies such documents, detects significant details and perform their recognition and analysis.
Smart Document Engine can recognize documents and forms both from images captured from flatbed and sheetfed scanners, as well as from photos and videos captured using smartphones, tablets or other mobile devices.
The technology stack implemented in the Smart Document Engine platform allows you to quickly and accurately recognize single-line and multi-line text fields in more than 100 languages, extract details from dense paragraphs, typewritten and handprinted fields, and much more.
Smart Document Engine is equipped with fast stamp detection, location, and classification modules. In addition to the stamp search and verification, the platform allows you to recognize individual text components of stamps.
Smart Document Engine verifies document data entries, including mandatory text or graphic field entries check, and performs analysis of document zones designed for handwritten or handprinted filling.
Smart Document Engine allows you to detect, locate and verify graphic elements, such as company logos, as well as important document graphic fields, for example, a personal photo attached to a questionnaire.
In addition to the text field recognition, Smart Document Engine allows you to analyze the attributes of text field and individualcharacters, such as font characteristics (presence of serifs, italics and boldness), estimation of uniformity, monotonicity, etc.
The GreenOCR® technology included in Smart Document Engine provides high recognition accuracy of printed texts (OCR), handprinted and handwritten form fields (ICR), as well as label and checkmarks recognition (OMR). The implemented AI-based approach “I extract what I see” does not use linguistic models and high-quality text recognition is achieved by extremely high accuracy of character recognition. Thus, it allows you to achieve high digitization accuracy and avoid errors when the recognition system substitutes the result based on a particular linguistic or statistical language model.
