Stream Scanning and Recognition Technologies
Data processing and recognition software meets the below requirements:
- flexible and easy setting for various form types;
- high speed and quality of recognition;
- protection from unauthorized access;
- operator supervision during processing;
- ease of use, high operator skills not required;
- cross-validation of recognized data using dictionaries and databases;
- automatic sums control;
- easy, efficient, and quick-operating system interface to enable database connection;
- ability to work with fluctuating volumes - from a few to thousands of pages.
The recognition sub-system is designed to process large quantities of incoming forms, therefore it supports such operation distribution capabilities like:
- package data processing when forms are combined into named packages going through processing stages;
- centralized complex administration;
- continuous monitoring of processing, individual stations, operators and tasks;
- flexible pattern for routing packages in the system;
- modular architecture to enable operation distribution;
- flexible adjustment to a certain task;
- system of queues and assigning tasks to certain operators;
- protected access;
- repository for processed packages;
- processing of forms with complicated nonlinear structure;
- data integrity control;
- reports on the complex working condition.
Besides, the recognition sub-system has a flexible and powerful interface to interact with application facilities that enable integration of recognition functions. For that purpose one of the widely used automation mechanisms can be applied, e.g., OLE Automation or COM (DCOM) interfaces.
