DeepCPCFG: Deep Learning and Context Free Grammars for End-to-End Information Extraction
share
We combine deep learning and Conditional Probabilistic Context Free Grammars (CPCFG) to create an end-to-end system for extracting structured information from complex documents. For each class of documents, we create a CPCFG that describes the structure of the information to be extracted. Conditional probabilities are modeled by deep neural networks. We use this grammar to parse 2-D documents to directly produce structured records containing the extracted information. This system is trained end-to-end with (Document, Record) pairs. We apply this approach to extract information from scanned invoices achieving state-of-the-art results.
