In contrast with traditional OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and ICR (Intelligent Character Recognition) technologies that can only process printed characters or block manuscript, the IWR (Intelligent Word Recognition) technology developed by A2iA reads freeform cursive handwriting by recognizing entire words and strings of words. Regardless of the type of document (structured, semi-structured, unstructured) or writing type (machine printed, cursive handwriting), the A2iA toolkits are able to read any type of writing, locate the information and releases it in digital format.

A2iAs reach: The extension of its field of application


Most will agree that there has been a continual explosion in the volume of information needing to be processed. But the majority of this information is stored in unstructured documents. By extracting more information from any digitized document regardless of its type, A2iAs technology offers companies the ability to gain access to the handwritten unstructured data previously out-of-reach. A2iAs technology turns paper documents into meaningful information that can be integrated into companies information systems.

A2iA DocumentReaderTM
A2iA DocumentReader
Intelligent Document Classification: A Holistic Approach Based on Layout AND Content

A2iA goes further than traditional recognition engines that are unable to recognize cursive handwriting and other classification engines that use only layout to route a document -- A2iA DocumentReader automates the entire workflow.

Fast and accurate indexing or classification is critical for business processes. Able to index documents by layout and content, similarly to the way a human would, A2iAs advanced technology automatically routes individual documents, or entire batches of records as one, with little to no manual intervention. A2iA DocumentReader can also realize that a group of documents together can have a different meaning than a single document on its own.

A2iA DocumentReader

Complex Data Extraction: Columnar Data


A2iA DocumentReader can locate and extract rubber-banded information and allow an operator to perform a quick and interactive recognition on complex documents with minimal effort.

By locating and extracting data from a list based on defined columnheaders, as well as by performing Automated Assisted Keying, AAK, on the selected column or columns from documents, manual processes and data entry time and costs are reduced. Data can be in printed or handwritten format, and can be found in applications such as Explanation of Benefits (EOB) processing, Lockbox Banking and Invoice Processing, to name a few. A2iA DocumentKeyer, the tool within A2iA DocumentReader, allows for Automated Assisted Keying. Users simply click and highlight the information in the column they want captured and the tool reads and extracts the data. Simple calculations also allow for the data to be summed, for example, ensuring the invoice or document balances and reconciles correctly.

A2iA FieldReaderTM

A2iA FieldReader Capturing Handwritten and Machine-Printed Data from Structured Documents and Forms
Innovative Software for Automatic Document Recognition (ADR) Although a wide range of software engines are available on the market for structured documents (forms, administrative documents, order forms etc.), their capabilities are often restricted to the simple recognition of constrained, typed or block fields although many forms contain freeform handwritten text. By combining OCR, ICR and IWR (Intelligent Word Recognition) technologies, all proprietary to A2iA, A2iA FieldReader reads all writing formats from the simplest (machine printed or block characters) to the most complex (freeform cursive handwriting). It automatically recognizes all fields, whether constrained or unconstrained: comb, box fields, alphabetic, digital, cursive fields, OMR, dates, numbers, etc. A2iA FieldReader is well adapted to processing forms, administrative documents, order forms, questionnaires and supplier invoices and is applicable to all business sectors (administrations, banks, insurance, health, transportation, distribution, office services, etc.). Character Recognition: From the Simplest to the Most Complex A2iA FieldReader can be seamlessly integrated into an ADR application and considerably extends their capabilities by reading all types of writing, including handwritten data. OCR/ICR: Recognition of Machine-Printed Information and Block Characters To read constrained fields, A2iA FieldReader depends on a combination of four different proprietary OCR/ICR engines, which provide a confidence score for each of the words read. The capability to link to a user-defined dictionary further improves recognition performance. A2iAs experience in the reading of cursive handwriting is an additional advantage in the segmentation of capital letters and character recognition. IWR: Intelligent Word Recognition Rather than recognizing individual characters like OCR and ICR, A2iA is the worldwide leading developer of Intelligent Word Recognition (IWR). Just as a human would, A2iAs IWR recognizes whole words instead of letters, allowing for a more accurate result from both machine printed and cursive handwriting.

A2iAFieldReader Features
Address Recognition A2iA FieldReader locates and recognizes address fields in structured documents. The software interfaces with the main postal directories on the market (USPS, Mediapost) in order to optimize the results for recognition of the postal codes, towns, street names and street number fields. Automatic Document Recognition (ADR) A2iA FieldReader identifies and indexes all types of structured documents in the same processing flow. A2iA FieldReader has its own recognition rules, which enable it to classify and then process each document associated with the fields to be recognized (date, address block, check box, etc.) whether they are machine printed, block or cursive handwritten fields.

Customer Case Studies

Customers Case Studies: Solving Some of the Toughest Challenges in Content Management
French Military of Defense - Within the Ministry of the Defense, the Direction of the National Service (DSN) maintains and administers 29million files, which must be retained by the head office of military records (BCAAM) through the end of 2012. To respond to increasing requests, the DSN modernized its current Electronic Document Management (EDM) System. Designed by EURIWARE and incorporating A2iAs recognition technology, it is capable of automatically handling the thousands of letters received daily, requesting co pies of records. This system also helped to accelerate the digitization of documents maintained by the BCAAM. Department of Public Housing, City of Tours, France The city of Tours, France, utilizes A2iA DocumentReader to process information from their public housing files. Integrated by ACS, the application is licensed for more than 120,000 files per year, creating faster processing times and a solution to their backlog of paper documents. Coutot-Roehrig A2iA DocumentReader automatically indexed and extracted first and last name of individuals, as well as their family relationship, from over 350,000 tables from Frances census and civic records dating from pre -1908. It was the only software able to overcome the complexity of the project, which included handwritten documents, old-fashioned writing styles, mixed formats and poor quality. By alleviating manual processes, A2iA saved Coutot-Roehrig money, sped processing times, and ensured the accuracy of the data being recognized. If these manual processes were not able to be automated, the project was estimated to have required several dozen years of work and was extremely error-prone. Yale University Peabody Museum of Natural History Specimens in the Yale University Herbarium Collection date back as far as 160 years, making it an important national historical collection. Yale required a solution that would make 350,000 specimen labels searchable by scientists and educators at a global level, without incurring vast amounts of manual labor to key the historical data. By com bining A2iAs advanced classification and recognition technologies to mimic a human speed-reader, A2iA DocumentReader quickly sorts unstructured documents and searches handwritten content, making it possible to mine data previously unavailable in electronic form for scientists, researchers and educators worldwide. World-Leading Telecom Operator -- This telecom provider is a customer of a business process outsourcing (BPO) firm, who provides scanning and industrial document management solutions. The telecom providers incoming mail amounts to nearly 15,00 0 letters a day, or 11-million pages per year, of which over 60 percent is handwritten. Prior to implementing A2iA DocumentReader, incoming mail was processed manually. The new workflow automatically classifies 80 percent of the incoming mail and reduces manual data-entry by 80 percent. A2iA DocumentReader automatically extracts the cursive handwritten data (telephone numbers, first and last names, account numbers, etc.) and classifies the letters according to their business area (internet, mobile phone, etc.) and subject (change of address, complaint, etc.). Large International Service Provider A large service provider with offices in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, specializing in document management and incoming mail processing, utilizes A2iA DocumentReader to classify each piece of incoming mail and identify the customer and the appropriate transaction type. Utilizing A2iA DocumentReader to process more than 100-million pages annually, transactions are automatically distributed to 75-different business areas after the mail is opened and digitized. A2iA has successfully improved the distribution of mail and increased the workflow within this international service bureau. Socit Gnrale The corporate branch of Socit Gnrale, one of the largest commercial banks in Europe, included A2iA DocumentReader in its proprietary application, SIROCCO. This application digitizes and automates the processing of market-trade confirmations of the banks daily buy and sell transactions. A2iA DocumentReader locates and extracts the customers identifying information indicated on the confirmations, received in the form of faxes or telexes, totaling more than 1.2 million pages per year. Arvato Services, a subsidiary of Bertelsmann This business process outsourcing firm licensed A2iA DocumentReader to automatically process incoming correspondences received by SFR, the French mobile telephone provider. A2iA DocumentReader automates the document sorting contained in these mail items and extracts the customers mobile telephone number to reduce the lapse in response time.
