Simplify Information Extraction with AI powered solutions - Video transcript
(Three financial documents appear on screen followed by a timer with “5” seconds on it)
Study these three financial documents. In the next 5 seconds, can you find and identify the name of store,
(The words “Store Name, Phone Number and Total Price” appear on screen)
telephone number and total price? Ready? GO!
(The time ticks down to 0)
Daunting, isn’t it?
(Seven more financial documents fill the screen)
Didn’t think so. When it comes to extracting meaningful information,
(Various words, symbols and numbers are decoded on screen revealing the name of the business, email address, type of service and total price)
you’re tired of parsing through stacks of complex, unstructured information in file formats that are trickier than most.
(A human icon appears on screen with a symbol of artificial intelligence)
(The AI loading bar reaches full before the human one)
You want to keep expenses down, you want your data faster, you want to keep expenses down.
(The numbers “$999” appear on the human side. The numbers “$17” appear on the AI side)
(The word “Errors” appear on both sides, the human side counts to 6 while the AI side stays at 0)
(The AI symbol pushes the human section out of the way. Four icons representing disaggregated data and technology appear from the AI symbol)
The answer? Look no further: solutions developed by experts at Statistics Canada Division automate your Information Extraction needs
(The text “Information Extraction” appears on screen)
(Several blank PDF’s and images fly into the screen)
Information extraction is the process of parsing through various types of unstructured information like pdfs and images,
(A magnifying glass comes into view and reveals hidden information inside the image)
and extracting essential information into more editable and structured data formats.
(All the PDF’s and images clear from the frame except for one PDF file that has lines and a graph on it)
Our experts use cutting-edge technology to simplify these processes.
(Two icons roll into the frame, one of a man with a gear in his head and the other, a brain with a microchip)
(The words “Machine Learning” and “Deep Learning” appear on screen)
This technology uses various Machine Learning and Deep learning algorithms
(The PDF icon spins and turns into and image. It the flies off the screen, revealing an icon of a lady)
to extract information from not only tables and text-based documents, but images as well.
(Wifi bar symbols emerge from Stella, followed by a photo of her passport which appears next to her)
Take Stella for example. She uploads a photo of her passport to the ArriveCAN app.
(The passport moves over, revealing the AI icon)
With the use of Optical Character Recognition, her information is quickly captured and disaggregated,
(A blue bar scans over the passport and outlines Stella’s key information on her passport)
(Relevant information is transferred to a phone displaying the ArriveCan app)
promptly being applied to her profile. Saving her time, and removing human error.
(Everything is removed from the screen except for Stella’s passport)
(Two more passports emerge from behind Stella’s and get plugged into a computer. Three phones displaying the ArriveCan app get plugged into the other side of the computer)
We even employ automated batch processing, which can help extract information and data from several PDFs and images at a time.
(Everything flies off screen. The AI icon returns followed by four icons which spin around each other)
Our information extraction solutions are applicable to so many domains,
(The icons move out of the way of an icon displaying a financial document that shifts to the center of the screen. Four more financial icons emerge from the original)
ranging from financial reporting…
(The icons move out of the way of an icon displaying a medical bag that shifts to the center of the screen. Four more medical icons emerge from the original)
Healthcare systems.
(The icons move out of the way of an icon displaying an opened letter that shifts to the center of the screen. Four more HR icons emerge from the original)
Human Resources.
(The icons move out of the way of an icon displaying a medical instrument that shifts to the center of the screen. Four more medical icons emerge from the original)
Even Scientific and pharma research!
(The icons move out of the way revealing a person)
And hopefully you as well.
