📄Documents

Documents overview

When you use the toggle to switch between upload and documents view, you will get an overview of all the documents that are currently present in the training data.

This table simply gives you the list of documents and provides filter and search fields for searching for one or more documents.

Filters

You can quickly find specific documents by making use of the filtering functionality.

Filtering by "Entity Value" functions akin to a "starts with" criterion.

Example: If you filter on "Entity Value" with the term "ABC," the results will include documents where an entity value starts with "ABC," such as "ABC123" or "ABCxyz". Documents with entity values that contain "ABC" but don't start with it will be ignored, such as "123ABC" or "asdABC123".

Bulk actions

Selecting documents allows you to perform an action on multiple documents:

  • Retry upload(s) You can retry the document classification or entity extraction

Document details

When you click on a document row, you can view extra details such as when it was uploaded, which steps of the pipeline were performed and what the current status is of the selected document.

Document view

When clicking on "View document", you can inspect more details concerning the document.

FieldDescription

Number

The position of the document in the upload

Actions

  • Page management Opens the page management screen for the upload. If you notice when processing documents that pages are wrong for a document, you can correct these in the page management screen. Afterwards, these modified documents will receive new predictions from the entity extraction model and will be queued for verification again if applicable.

  • Reject upload Rejects the whole upload. This action is only available in human validation.

Document actions

At the top of the document processing screen you have a number of buttons that help you navigate between documents and uploads.

  • Back - When in human validation, this button puts the document back in the queue. When in training or production data modules, or in tasks, it will go back to the overview of uploads, documents or tasks.

  • Upload done - This button is only available in human validation. You use this button when you have successfully finished processing all documents from an upload. The upload will then go to the next step 'output' to send the result to your system.

  • Done - When you are done with your intervention, you can mark the document as done.

  • Park - This button is only available in human intervention and in the tasks module. Use this button to park the document to handle it at a later time. A popup will be shown where you need to fill in a reason for parking, this will help you later when asking your colleagues or manager for feedback about the document. It reminds you of why you decided to put this specific document in parked.

  • Reject - This button is used if there is a problem with the document. Besides some standard errors like 'bad OCR' or 'irrelevant document' you can define your errors in the project settings, see ​Custom errors.

Entities

This list shows each entity defined for this document together with the number of times this entity was found in the document.

Annotations

The list gives an overview of all entities with their values found in the document which have been predicted by a model or manually added by a person. An entity always has a colour but if the entity was found by the model it has a lighter transparent colour. If the entity was manually added by a person it has a darker colour.

The list shows the following data:

FieldDescription

Name

The name of the entity

Value

The value of the entity

User

The user who did the annotation. The value AI indicates that the annotation was predicted by the model.

Score

The confidence score of entities that were predicted by the model. A red color indicates that the score is lower than the threshold.

Page

The page on which the entity appears

Actions

  • Click on a row Selects the entity in the document view, giving you actions to perform on the entity

You can click a row in this list to see the value in the document. You can add additional entity values in the document by clicking the first and the last word of an entity, or by selecting it with dragging, and then selecting the correct label in the dropdown menu that will open. More info on how to perform entity annotation can be found in Annotation of training data.

Checkbox actions

Selecting 1 or more entities through the checkboxes allows you to perform the following actions:

  • Delete annotations - Removes the selected annotations

  • Enrich annotation - Can only be used on 1 annotation at a time and allows you to link an enrichment to the entity.
