Tabular data extraction from PDF documents is critical task due to diverse PDF templates and Table templates. Some open-source tools do not support all possible types of PDF templates for tabular data extraction. A computer vision based document table detection approach is considered along with Camelot tool to extract tabular information from PDF documents. A post-processing work is necessary after tabular data extraction.

Matrix Data Extractor (MDE) is a web-based application, which can be deployed on your computer. It identifies document table regions on PDF documents using Computer Vision based Deep Learning, especially Transfer Learning and Object Detection algorithm. It extracts all textual data into text files by applying Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and also extracts tabular data separately in excel files using Camelot python package. It supports to transfer manufacturer names and corresponding technical datasheets names (or PDF filenames) to MongoDB database table for further processing.

Any support to provide table detection model will not be provided unfortunately after project completion. The accuracy of table detection model depends on various factors such as volume, variety of annotated datasets, hyperparameters of model. You can do your experiment to get better accuracy of your table detection model.

The accuracy of table detection model depends on various factors such as volume, variety of annotated datasets, hyperparameters of model. You can do your experiment to get better accuracy of your table detection model. To get table detection model weight on Di-Plast dataset, you can request to Semantic Information Systems Research Group, Osnabrueck University, Osnabrueck, Germany ( [https://www.informatik.uni-osnabrueck.de/arbeitsgruppen/semantische_informationssysteme.html|https://www.informatik.uni-osnabrueck.de/arbeitsgruppen/semantische_informationssysteme.html] ).

\\ - Open-source document table detection tools are not suitable enough to extract tabular information from PDF documents by considering all possible document templates and table templates. Due to diverse document templates and table templates, computer vision and transfer learning based document table detection emerged significantly. This tool helps to extract textual and tabular data (in excel files) from your domain specific dataset. The extracted data can be used in Big Data technologies and Natural Language Processing (NLP).

!Tool Description
Matrix Data Extractor (MDE) is a web-based application that identifies document table regions on PDF documents using Computer Vision based Deep Learning algorithm and extracts data to text files by applying Optical Character Recognition (OCR). It supports to transfer extracted data to MongoDB database tables. A search functionality is also provided to retrieve data on user interface based on Keyword matching (e.g. Manufacturer Name, Technical Datasheet Name, Keyword for Table Data).
! Guidelines
Before getting started, please take a look at [Data Extractor/MatrixDataExtractor_UserGuide.pdf] and make yourself familiar with how to use the tool.
