A method of detecting fields in document images includes: receiving a codebook comprising a set of visual words, each visual word corresponding to a center of a cluster of local descriptors; calculating, based on a set of user labeled document images, for each visual word of the codebook, a respective frequency distribution of a field position of a specified labeled field with respect to the visual word; loading a document image for extraction of target fields; calculating a statistical predicate of a possible position of a target field in the document image based on the frequency distributions; and detecting, using the trained model, fields in the document image based on the calculated statistical predicate.

Detecting fields in document images

A method of generating and optimizing a codebooks for document analysis comprises: receiving a first set of document images; extracting a plurality of keypoint regions from each document image of the first set of document images; calculating local descriptors for each keypoint region of the extracted keypoint regions; clustering the local descriptors such that each center of a cluster of local descriptors corresponds to a respective visual word; generating a codebook containing a set of visual words; and optimizing the codebook by maximizing mutual information (MI) between a target field of a second set of document images and at least one visual word of the set of visual words.
