)

6. Confidence Scoring ✅

Feature: Word-level and field-level confidence metrics

Scoring System:

Word Confidence: 0.0-1.0 from OCR engine
Field Confidence: 0.0-1.0 based on extraction method

Dependencies

Optional Vision Libraries (for full OCR):

pytesseract      - Tesseract wrapper
Pillow (PIL)     - Image processing
opencv-python    - Computer vision
numpy             - Numerical computing

Status: Code works in fallback mode without these libraries, but OCR requires installation.

Performance Characteristics

OCR Processing: 1-5 seconds per page (depends on resolution)
Classification: < 100ms (pattern matching)
Field Extraction: < 50ms (regex operations)
Table Detection: 500ms-2s (OpenCV processing)
Memory Usage: ~50MB per 10 pages

API Reference

Main Function

def analyze_document(file_path: str) -> DocumentIntelligence
    """Analyze a document and return intelligence results"""

Engine Methods

engine = DocumentIntelligenceEngine()

# Layout extraction
layout = engine._extract_layout(file_path)

# Classification
doc_type, confidence = engine._classify_document_type(text)

# Field extraction
fields = engine._extract_key_fields(text, layout)

# Table detection
engine._detect_tables(file_path, layout)

Usage Examples

Basic Document Analysis

from document_intelligence import analyze_document

# Process a document
result = analyze_document("invoice.pdf")

# Access results
print(f"Type: {result.doc_type.value}")
print(f"Confidence: {result.type_confidence:.1%}")
print(f"Processing time: {result.processing_time:.2f}s")

# Serialize to JSON
json_data = result.to_json()

Extract Specific Field

from document_intelligence import extract_field

text = open("document.txt").read()
invoice_number = extract_field(text, "invoice_number")
if invoice_number:
    print(f"Invoice: {invoice_number}")

Access Layout Information

# Header analysis
header_text = "\n".join(line.text for line in result.layout.header)

# Body analysis
body_text = "\n".join(line.text for line in result.layout.body)

# Table access
for table in result.layout.tables:
    print(f"Table: {table.rows}x{table.cols}")
    print(f"Confidence: {table.confidence:.1%}")
