Intelligent Document Processing

Low riskExact public inventory row

Description

This use case intends to solve the problem of the manual effort required to validate and extract data from forms.

Detailed example

This platform will provide Optical Character Recognition and machine learning models to verify, extract, and classify information from ICE forms.

AI / analytics pattern

Computer Vision: AI that processes and interprets visual data (e.g., images and videos).

Automation level / stage

c) Deployed – The use case is being actively authorized or utilized to support the functions or mission of an agency.

Expected benefit

Business units within ICE leverage these services to automate repeatable, time-consuming processes such as invoice processing, and form entry validation and extraction. This platform will provide Optical Character Recognition and machine learning models to verify, extract, and classify information from ICE forms. Using AI to provide information extraction for these processes saves ICE personnel a significant amount of time while improving data quality and enabling automation.

Data needed

ICE’s document understanding platforms provide out-of-the box models to verify and/or extract information from a variety of document types. These platforms also include the ability to create an ML feedback loop to tailor the models to try to improve the accuracy in extracting data fields from multiple document types. In this scenario, ICE would fine-tune the document understanding model using the documents submitted to the understanding workflow.
