Named entity recognition with convolutional networks

摘要

Methods and systems for recognizing named entities within the text of a document are provided. The methods and systems may include receiving a document image and recognized text of the document image. A feature map of the document image may be created, a tagged map may be created, and locations of tags within the tagged map may be estimated using a machine learning model. Named entities with the recognized text may be recognized based on the one or more locations of the tags. In some embodiments, the machine learning model is a convolutional neural network. In further embodiments, creating the feature map may include determining, for a subset of the cells of the feature map, one or more features of the recognized text contained in a corresponding portion of the document image.
