• Abstract summary: This paper presents the prototype of a novel automatic reading system of identity documents. The system has been thought to extract data of the main Italian identity documents from photographs of acceptable quality. The document is first localized inside the photo, and then classified; finally, text recognition is executed.

• Abstract: Identity documents automatic reading and verification is an appealing technology for nowadays service industry, since this task is still mostly performed manually, leading to waste of economic and time resources. In this paper the prototype of a novel automatic reading system of identity documents is presented. The system has been thought to extract data of the main Italian identity documents from photographs of acceptable quality, like those usually required to online subscribers of various services. The document is first localized inside the photo, and then classified; finally, text recognition is executed. A synthetic dataset has been used, both for neural networks training, and for performance evaluation of the system. The synthetic dataset avoided privacy issues linked to the use of real photos of real documents, which will be used, instead, for future developments of the system.

  We introduce the Heterogeneous Learning Resources (HLR) dataset designed for document image classification. The approach involves decomposing individual learning resources into constituent document images (sheets) These images are then processed through an OCR tool to extract textual representation.

  We propose a novel method for generating synthetic scans to resemble real historical documents. We pre-train our model, PHD, on a combination of synthetic scans and real historical newspapers from the 1700-1900 period. We successfully apply our model to a historical QA task, highlighting its usefulness in this domain.

  We present DocMAE, a novel self-supervised framework for document image rectification. We first mask random patches of the background-excluded document images and then reconstruct the missing pixels. With such a self-supervised learning approach, the network is encouraged to learn the intrinsic structure of deformed documents.
