• Title: Key-value information extraction from full handwritten pages
• Authors: Sol\`ene Tarride and M\'elodie Boillet and Christopher Kermorvant
• Abstract summary: We propose a Transformer-based approach for information extraction from digitized handwritten documents. Our approach combines, in a single model, the different steps that were so far performed by separate models: feature extraction, handwriting recognition and named entity recognition. We compare our models to state-of-the-art methods on three public databases (IAM, ESPOSALLES, and POPP) and outperform previous performances on all three datasets.

• Abstract: We propose a Transformer-based approach for information extraction from digitized handwritten documents. Our approach combines, in a single model, the different steps that were so far performed by separate models: feature extraction, handwriting recognition and named entity recognition. We compare this integrated approach with traditional two-stage methods that perform handwriting recognition before named entity recognition, and present results at different levels: line, paragraph, and page. Our experiments show that attention-based models are especially interesting when applied on full pages, as they do not require any prior segmentation step. Finally, we show that they are able to learn from key-value annotations: a list of important words with their corresponding named entities. We compare our models to state-of-the-art methods on three public databases (IAM, ESPOSALLES, and POPP) and outperform previous performances on all three datasets.

  We propose an alternative approach to precisely and robustly extract key information from document images. We explicitly model entities as semantic points, i.e., center points of entities are enriched with semantic information describing the attributes and relationships of different entities. The proposed method can achieve significantly enhanced performance on entity labeling and linking, compared with previous state-of-the-art models.

• PART: Pre-trained Authorship Representation Transformer [64.78260098263489]
  Authors writing documents imprint identifying information within their texts: vocabulary, registry, punctuation, misspellings, or even emoji usage. Previous works use hand-crafted features or classification tasks to train their authorship models, leading to poor performance on out-of-domain authors. We propose a contrastively trained model fit to learn textbfauthorship embeddings instead of semantics.

• Towards End-to-end Handwritten Document Recognition [0.0]
  Handwritten text recognition has been widely studied in the last decades for its numerous applications. In this thesis, we propose to tackle these issues by performing the handwritten text recognition of whole document in an end-to-end way. We reached state-of-the-art results at paragraph level on the RIMES 2011, IAM and READ 2016 datasets and outperformed the line-level state of the art on these datasets.

  Key Information Extraction (KIE) from documents improves efficiency, productivity, and security in many industrial scenarios. Existing supervised learning methods for the KIE task need to feed a large number of labeled samples and learn separate models for different types of documents. We propose a deep end-to-end trainable network for one-shot KIE using partial graph matching.
