Copying tables from PDFs to Excel can be a nightmare. Wonky formatting, lost data, and inconsistencies can make you want to pull your hair out. It's a chore nobody wants to do, especially when dealing with complex tables, inconsistent layouts, multiple languages, and unstructured data. You know you're in for a tough time when you…
This tutorial blog examines some of the use cases of key-value pair extractions, the traditional and current approaches to solving the task, and a sample implementation with code. You encounter KVPs more often than you might realize. Remember the last time you flipped through a dictionary? Each word (the key) is paired with its definition…
IInvoice management software is transforming financial processes for businesses in 2024. If you're looking to streamline your invoicing, you're making a smart move that could save your company time and money. Many businesses face challenges with invoice processing—from data entry errors to delayed payments. These issues can impact cash flow and overall efficiency. Fortunately, there's…
Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a fascinating field that bridges the gap between human communication and machine understanding. One of the fundamental steps in NLP is text preprocessing, which transforms raw text data into a format that can be effectively analyzed and utilized by algorithms. In this blog, we’ll delve into three essential NLP preprocessing…
There’s never been more pressure to optimize the workplace. Over the last few years, turbulent economic conditions have left many businesses looking for ways to cut costs and promote productivity in the office. Capitalizing on the Internet of Things (IoT) is a great way to do that.

A fundamental topic in computer vision for nearly half a century, stereo matching involves calculating dense disparity maps from two corrected pictures. It plays a critical role in many applications, including autonomous driving, robotics, and augmented reality, among many others.
According to their cost-volume computation and optimization methodologies, existing surveys categorize end-to-end architectures into 2D…
In robotics, understanding the position and movement of a sensor suite within its environment is crucial. Traditional methods, called Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), often face challenges with unsynchronized sensor data and require complex computations. These methods must estimate the position at discrete time intervals, making it difficult to handle data from various sensors that…
Intelligently synergizing dynamic programming and Monte Carlo algorithms R einforcement learning is a domain in machine learning that introduces the concept of an agent learning optimal strategies in complex environments. The agent learns from its actions, which result in rewards, based on the environment’s state. Reinforcement learning is a challenging topic and differs significantly from…
Medical data extraction remains a significant hurdle, with the sector requiring 7.7x more administrative workers than other industries. Automating healthcare data extraction can help healthcare providers reduce operational spending and streamline their processes while improving patient care. These systems capture and extract crucial information from a variety of medical documents—patient records, insurance forms,…
