| 20080263021 | Methods of object search and recognition - The proposed technical solution allows processing of machine-readable forms of unfixed format. An auxiliary brief description may be optionally specified to determine the spatial orientation of the image. A method of searching for elements of a document comprises the following main operations in addition to the operations of preliminary image processing: selecting the varieties of structural description from several available variants, determining the orientation of the image, selecting the text objects, where the text must be recognized, and determining the minimal required volume of recognition, recognizing the text objects, searching for elements of the form. Searching for elements of the form comprises the following actions: selecting a searched element in the structural description, gaining the algorithm of search constraints from the structural description, searching for the element, testing the obtained variants. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20090074296 | CREATING A DOCUMENT TEMPLATE FOR CAPTURING DATA FROM A DOCUMENT IMAGE AND CAPTURING DATA FROM A DOCUMENT IMAGE - In one embodiment, there is disclosed a method | 03-19-2009 |
| 20090074303 | Method and System for Creating a Form Template for a Form - A method and system for creating a form template for a form are disclosed. The method comprises analyzing an image of a form to detect object demarcations in the form. The method also comprises classifying the object demarcations into one of a plurality of predefined object categories and processing each object demarcation based on the object category into which it has been classified, thereby to create the form template automatically. | 03-19-2009 |
