Abstract
Systems and methods for assigning word fragments to lines of text in optical character recognition (OCR) extracted data can include at least one processor obtaining a plurality of word fragments from OCR generated data associated with an image. The at least one processor can determine vertical coordinates of each of the word fragments in the image. The at least one processor can cluster the plurality of word fragments into one or more clusters of word fragments based on the vertical coordinates of the plurality of word fragments. The at least one processor can assign each word fragment of a respective cluster to a corresponding text line based on the clustering.
