Overview: What's Inside IDP?
This eBook provides a primer in intelligent document processing (IDP) technologies from the advent of capture to where it is today. It also addresses the differences between intelligent capture and Optical Character Recognition (OCR), when to use OCR and when to use intelligent capture, the interpretation methods and what matters most depending on your organization’s needs and objectives.
Machine learning is an essential component in advanced intelligent capture. Techniques that do not rely on machine learning are discussed, alongside when machine learning is best applied, specifically in intelligent document processing. Supervised and unsupervised learning as well as artificial neural networks are addressed.
Understanding each technology within the IDP stack—document preprocessing, data location, extraction, and verification—provides the fundamental essence of the intelligent document processing stack for your organization. Building a customer IDP stack, buying out-of-the-box, or leveraging off-the-shelf SDKs / APIs are also explored here.
These options along with how to futureproof your document processing for moving forward conclude this eBook.
