Abstract
In an approach, a processor performs document layout analysis on a document generating a plurality of textual regions; extracts characteristics from each of the plurality of textual regions and associates the respective characteristics to the respective textual region as metadata; classifies each of the plurality of textual regions as an optical character recognition (OCR) region, non-OCR valuable region, or non-OCR non-valuable region using a classifier; performs OCR on each OCR region generating an OCR output; identifies associated constant OCR data from a constant OCR data repository for each non-OCR valuable region; merges the associated constant OCR data with the OCR output generating a complete OCR data for the received document; performs data extraction on the complete OCR data to identify data fields and key-value pairs generating extracted data; and determines whether the extracted data is valid based on a set of rules.
