BUSINESS FORM LAYOUT ANALYSIS DEVICE, AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM AND ANALYSIS METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

[Problem] To enable an analysis of the layout of an unknown business form that has not been registered in a system.[Solution] An item extraction unit 2, which is for extracting an item region that includes an item name printed in type on a business form, uses an object detection algorithm based on deep learning to individually extract item regions contained in a business form image while appending the attribute classification to the item regions. A handwriting region extraction unit 3 individually extracts, from the business form image, handwritten text regions that include a text string that has been entered into the form as handwritten text. For each handwritten text region a layout analysis unit 5 analyzes the layout of the business form by assigning any of the attributes that have been classified by the item extraction unit 2.
