<blockquote>
[[GPT Integration]]
</blockquote>
[https://openai.com/ OpenAI GPT] integration in '''Grooper''' allows users to leverage modern AI technology to enhance their document data integration needs.


<blockquote style="font-size:14pt">
'''[[Output Extractor Key]]'''
</blockquote>


'''''Output Extractor Key''''' is a property on a the '''[[Data Type]]''' extractor. It is exposed when the '''''[[Collation]]''''' property is set to ''Individual''. When the '''''Output Extractor Key''''' is set to ''True'', each output value will be set to a key representing the name of the extractor which produced the match. It  is useful when extracting non-word classification features.
OpenAI's GPT model has made waves in the world of computing. Our '''Grooper''' developers recognized the potential for this to grow '''Grooper's''' capabilities. Adding its functionality will allow for users to explore and find creative solutions for processing their documents using this advanced technology.
<br/><br/>
The main purpose of this property is to supplement the capabilities of '''Grooper's''' classification technology. When using ''Lexical'' classification, a '''Content Model''' must use an extractor to collect the lexical features upon training. A common use case is to have the extractor collect words, which is beneficial when the semantic content of a document is varied among examples, and indicative of their type. However, this breaks down when a document consists mainly of repeated types of information. Take, for example, a bank statement. With no keywords present on the document, the only way to properly classify the document is to recognize that it contains a high frequency of transaction line items. It would be highly impractical to train '''Grooper''' to understand every variation of a transaction line item.
<br/><br/>
This is where the '''''Output Extractor Key''''' property comes into play. In using this property one can establish an extractor that will pattern match the various transaction line item formats on the document, and return A SINGLE output for each result, such as "feature_transaction", instead of the myriad returned results from the pattern match. This is then fed to the classification engine. With this approach a document containing a high frequency of "transaction" features, let's say ... 50, will be treated as though it contained 50 separate occurrences of the phrase "feature_transaction".
|
|
You can now manually manipulate the confidence of an extraction result.  The '''''[[Confidence Multiplier and Output Confidence]]''''' properties of '''[[Data Type]]''' and '''[[Data Format]]''' extractors allow you to change the confidence score of extraction results.  No longer are you forced to accept the score Grooper provides.  These properties give you more control when it comes to what confidence a result ''should'' be.


This allows you to prioritize certain results over others.  You can create a kind of "fall back" or "safety net" result by using this property.  You can even ''increase'' the confidence of an extractor's result, allowing you to give more weight to a fuzzy extractor's result over a non-fuzzy one, for example.
[[File:Antikythera.jpg|left]]


For more information visit, the [[Confidence Multiplier and Output Confidence]] article.
Is this a computer?
 
Maybe!  This is an artifact known as the "Antikythera mechanism".  Discovered in a shipwreck off the coast of the Greek island Antikythera in 1901, it is thought to be the oldest known example of an analogue computer. 
 
The instrument is a device called an "orrery", a mechanical model of the Solar System used to predict the motions of the planets and Earth's moon.  The shipwreck it was found it has been dated to occurred between 70 and 60 BC. However, the Antikythera mechanism itself may be as old as 205 BC!
