A method for extracting information from a document, comprising: receiving an identification of an entity to be extracted from the document; identifying candidates from the document, each candidate corresponding to a given element contained in the document and having a given location within the document; embedding the candidates, thereby obtaining an embedding vector for each candidate; for each candidate, comparing in a semantic space the respective embedding vector to previous embedding vectors associated with previous entity values previously chosen for the entity, thereby obtaining a first comparison result; for each candidate, comparing in a pixel space the given location within the document of the candidate to a location associated with the previous entity values previously chosen for the entity, thereby obtaining a second comparison result; sorting the candidates using the first and second comparison results obtained for each candidate, thereby obtaining sorted candidates; and outputting the sorted candidates.
