Abstract: Computer program products for discriminating hand and machine print from each other, and from signatures, are disclosed and include program code readable and/or executable by a processor to: receive an image, determine a color depth of the image; reducing the color depth of non-bi-tonal images to generate a bi-tonal representation of the image; identify a set of one or more graphical line candidates in either the bi-tonal image or the bi-tonal representation, the graphical line candidates including true graphical lines and/or false positives; discriminate any of the true graphical lines from any of the false positives; remove the true graphical lines from the bi-tonal image or the bi-tonal representation without removing the false positives to generate a component map comprising connected components and excluding graphical lines; identify one or more of the connected components in the component map; and output and/or display and indicator of each of the connected components.

Abstract: An efficient method and system to enhance digital acquisition devices for analog data is presented. The enhancements offered by the method and system are available to the user in local as well as in remote deployments yielding efficiency gains for a large variety of business processes. The quality enhancements of the acquired digital data are achieved efficiently by employing virtual reacquisition. The method of virtual reacquisition renders unnecessary the physical reacquisition of the analog data in case the digital data obtained by the acquisition device are of insufficient quality. The method and system allows multiple users to access the same acquisition device for analog data. In some embodiments, one or more users can virtually reacquire data provided by multiple analog or digital sources. The acquired raw data can be processed by each user according to his personal preferences and/or requirements. The preferred processing settings and attributes are determined interactively in real time as well as non real time, automatically and a combination thereof.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes: capturing an image of a document using a camera of a mobile device; performing optical character recognition (OCR) on the image of the document; extracting an identifier of the document from the image based at least in part on the OCR; comparing the identifier with content from one or more reference data sources, wherein the content from the one or more reference data sources comprises global address information; and determining whether the identifier is valid based at least in part on the comparison. The method may optionally include normalizing the extracted identifier, retrieving additional geographic information, correcting OCR errors, etc. based on comparing extracted information with reference content. Corresponding systems and computer program products are also disclosed.

Abstract: In various embodiments, methods, systems, and computer program products for detecting, estimating, calculating, etc. characteristics of a document based on reference objects depicted on the document are disclosed. In one approach, a computer-implemented method for processing a digital image depicting a document includes analyzing the digital image to determine one or more of a presence and a location of one or more reference objects; determining one or more geometric characteristics of at least one of the reference objects; defining one or more region(s) of interest based at least in part on one or more of the determined geometric characteristics; and detecting a presence or an absence of an edge of the document within each defined region of interest. Additional embodiments leverage the type of document depicted in the image, multiple frames of image data, and/or calculate or extrapolate document edges rather than locating edges in the image.

Abstract: Systems and methods for mobile image data capture and processing are disclosed. The techniques encompass receipt or capture of digital image data, detecting an object such as a document depicted in a digital image corresponding to the digital image data, processing the digital image to improve image quality, classifying the object from the processed image data, and extracting useful information from the object. Processing may improve image quality by correcting artifacts such as distortion, skew, blur, shadows, etc. common to digital images captured using mobile devices. Classification is based on identifying unique features (and/or combinations thereof) within the image data and determining whether the identified features indicate the object belongs to a class of known objects having similar characteristics, or is unique to all known classes. Extraction is based in whole or in part on object classification. All operations may be performed using mobile technology exclusively.

Abstract: The presently disclosed inventive concepts encompass capturing video data using a mobile device, streaming the captured video data to a server for processing of the video data in real-time or near-real time, and providing the server's processing result to the mobile device for additional analysis and/or processing of the captured video data, the processing result, or both. In one embodiment an image processing server is configured to: process, in real time, input streamed to the server from a mobile device, the input comprising one or more frames of digital video data; and output a result of processing the input to the mobile device. In another embodiment, a method includes capturing video data using a mobile device, streaming the video data to an image processing server, receiving a processing result from the server, and further processing the captured video data and/or the processing result using the mobile device.
