The artificial intelligence-powered Table Detector detects table rows and columns using a proprietary machine learning model. According to Equidox’s data scientist, David Freelan, “The new detector uses ten new settings: five for columns and five for rows. Each uses a different detection functionality to place row and column delineators in order to tag the individual cells of the table. These work independently, so are useful for a wide variety of table formats. Some detect existing lines, some detect text, some detect spacing. By choosing one setting from the options for rows, and one setting from the options for columns, the machine learning detection process can more accurately pinpoint how to tag the content into cells.” A table summary is automatically populated with the number of headings, merged cells, spanned rows, and columns. Finally, an HTML preview shows the completed table so users can verify they’ve correctly tagged various elements of the table.
The new smart List Detector is just as easy, even for complex nested lists. Create and label a zone as a list, then adjust the List Detector to one of five unique settings until all list items are identified and nested correctly. The List Detector automatically detects all items: no need to interact with complicated tag trees involving layers of list items and list bodies. The HTML preview screen shows the list correctly tagged to ensure accuracy.
