Document analysis systems: problems and perspectives, a real case study

We deal with the development of intelligent forms processing systems that allow one to automate the manual operations in existing paper-based systems, ensuring the same reading capabilities of humans. For this purpose, the traditional research on character recognition has expanded its frontiers to novel goals in the field of advanced preprocessing, layout understanding, typewritten and handwritten character and word recognition, and intelligent postprocessing and verification of document authenticity.<
