''Header-Value'' is one of three methods available to '''Data Table''' elements to extract information from tables on a document setIt uses a combination of column header and column value extractors to determine the table’s structure and extract information from the table’s cells.
"Label Sets" refers to a variety of document classification and extraction capabilities made possible through the ''Labeling Behavior''.  The ''Labeling Behavior'' is a '''Content Type''' '''''Behavior''''' designed to collect and utilize a document's field labels in a variety of waysThis includes functionality for classification and data extraction.
 
 
The ''Labeling Behavior'' functionality allows Grooper users to quickly onboard new '''Document Types''' for structured and semi-structured forms, utilizing labels as a thumbprint for classification and data extraction purposes.  Once the ''Labeling Behavior'' is enabled, labels are identified and collected using the "Labels" tab of '''Document Types'''. These "Label Sets" can then be used for the following purposes:


It uses a fairly simply concept as it's basis.  You, a human reader, often know how to read a table because of the labels at the top of each column.  You know a column labeled "Date" is going to dates in each row for that column.  The "Header" part of ''Header-Value'' is establishing column header labels as the first step in modeling the table's structure.  Furthermore, if you see a column labeled "Date", you expect to see date values in the cells below.  You wouldn't expect to find a Social Security Number, for example.  That just wouldn't make sense for how the column is labeled.  This is the "Value" part of the ''Header-Value'' method.  Once you establish where the table begins, using the header labels, you can more fully model the table's structure using information about the values in each column.
* Document classification - Using the ''Labelset-Based'' '''''Classification Method'''''
* Field based data extraction - Primarily using the ''Labeled Value'' '''''Extractor Type'''''

* Sectional data extraction - Primarily using a '''Data Section''' object's ''Transaction Detection'' '''''Extract Method'''''

The earliest examples of OCR (Optical Character Recognition) can be traced back to the  1870s.  Early OCR devices were actually invented to aid the blind.  This included "text-to-speech" devices that would scan black print and produce sounds a blind person could interpret, as well as "text-to-tactile" machines which would convert luminous sensations into tactile sensations.  Machines such as these would allow a blind person to read printed text not yet converted to Braille.

Getting Started

Grooper was built from the ground up by BIS, a company with 35 years of continuous experience developing and delivering new technology. Grooper is an intelligent document processing and digital data integration solution that empowers organizations to extract meaningful information from paper/electronic documents and other forms of unstructured data.

The platform combines patented and sophisticated image processing, capture technology, machine learning, natural language processing, and optical character recognition to enrich and embed human comprehension into data. By tackling tough challenges that other systems cannot resolve, Grooper has become the foundation for many industry-first solutions in healthcare, financial services, oil and gas, education, and government.

Label Sets

"Label Sets" refers to a variety of document classification and extraction capabilities made possible through the Labeling Behavior. The Labeling Behavior is a Content Type Behavior designed to collect and utilize a document's field labels in a variety of ways. This includes functionality for classification and data extraction.


The Labeling Behavior functionality allows Grooper users to quickly onboard new Document Types for structured and semi-structured forms, utilizing labels as a thumbprint for classification and data extraction purposes. Once the Labeling Behavior is enabled, labels are identified and collected using the "Labels" tab of Document Types. These "Label Sets" can then be used for the following purposes:

  • Document classification - Using the Labelset-Based Classification Method
  • Field based data extraction - Primarily using the Labeled Value Extractor Type
  • Tabular data extraction - Primarily using a Data Table object's Tabular Layout Extract Method
  • Sectional data extraction - Primarily using a Data Section object's Transaction Detection Extract Method

The earliest examples of OCR (Optical Character Recognition) can be traced back to the 1870s. Early OCR devices were actually invented to aid the blind. This included "text-to-speech" devices that would scan black print and produce sounds a blind person could interpret, as well as "text-to-tactile" machines which would convert luminous sensations into tactile sensations. Machines such as these would allow a blind person to read printed text not yet converted to Braille.

The first business to install an OCR reader was the magazine Reader's Digest in 1954. The company used it to convert typewritten sales reports into machine readable punch cards.

It would not be until 1974 that OCR starts to form as we imagine it now with Ray Kurzweil's development of the first "omni-font" OCR software, capable of reading text of virtually any font.
