  • Tokenizing the processed text.
  • Tagging relevant Parts of Speech (POS) tags to Tokenized text.
  • Passing POS tagged text to Named Entity Recognizer (NER).
  • Using rule-based approach to extract any missed fields.

Generating output in required format (json, CSV, TSV, etc.)

Technology Stack:

  • Python 3.7
  • Natural Language Processing (NLP)
  • NLTK Stanford – Stanza
  • Tesseract OCR
  • Python Flask Framework (for web interface)

Benefits:

  • Extract Significant Information in a trice
  • Faster than Manual Data Entry
