An electronic apparatus and a data transmission method thereof are provided. The data transmission method is adapted to the electronic apparatus including a touch screen, and the data transmission method includes the following steps. An image frame is displayed through the touch screen. A connection with another electronic apparatus placed on the touch screen is established. Position information of said another electronic apparatus on the touch screen is detected through the touch screen, to capture a partial frame from the image frame according to the position information of said another electronic apparatus. Feature information of data to be transmitted is obtained from the partial frame. The data to be transmitted is sent to said another electronic apparatus via the connection according to the feature information.

In a situation of setting a file name and the like by using a character string obtained by performing OCR processing to a scan image, appropriate conditions can be set according to a character string to be scanned so as to increase a character recognition rate. There is provided an apparatus for performing a predetermined process to a scan image obtained by scanning a document, including: a display control unit configured to display a UI screen for performing the predetermined process, the UI screen displaying a character area assumed to be one continuous character string in the scan image in a selectable manner to a user; and a setting unit configured to determine a condition for OCR processing based on selection order of a character area selected by a user via the UI screen and a format of supplementary information for the predetermined process, perform OCR processing by using the determined condition for OCR processing to the selected character area, and set supplementary information for the predetermined process by using a character string extracted in the OCR processing.

To appropriately perform blotting out processing for a portion that a user intends to prevent from being displayed for an electronic document having text information on a character string for search, along with image information. The information processing apparatus according to the present invention, in a case where the electronic document is an electronic document in a format searchable for a character string and where a character string obtained by performing OCR processing for a character image object existing in an area and a character string of an invisible text object existing in the area do not match with each other, a setting unit performs re-setting of an area to which blotting out processing is applied for at least one of the character image object and the invisible text object so that both the character strings match with each other.

An approach provides sending captured Superbill image data and output data generated based on results of parsing the captured Superbill image data to an external system which manages Superbill data via a cloud system and a storage service. The cloud system creates parsing rule data for parsing a captured Superbill image in accordance with user operation at a client device. The cloud system obtains captured Superbill image data from the storage service, in response to receiving a notification indicating that the captured Superbill image data has been stored in the storage service. The cloud system parses the obtained image data based on the created parsing rule and generates output data based on results of parsing. The cloud system sends the generated output data and the obtained image data to the external system via the one or more computer networks.

An information processing apparatus includes a receiver that receives, from a user, an operation of specifying order of plural frames in an image, and a generator that generates output data associated with the image so that pieces of digitization data in the plural frames are arranged based on the specified order.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to detect, in response to detection of plural first character strings each representing a first item from a document having writing fields for items, second character strings related to the plural first character strings, respectively, and set at least one of the detected second character strings in setting information as a second item associated with the first item.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor. The processor is configured to accept designation of an area including an item and a set of one or more options for the item, the item being contained in a form image to be recognized, to define the form image, extract the item and the set of one or more options from the area, and perform control to display a definition that associates the item with the set of one or more options.

Methods and devices are described for computer vision-based gesture detection. From a frame of image data, extracted locations of keypoints of a detected hand are obtained. The extracted locations are normalized to obtain normalized features. The normalized features are processed using a trained decision tree ensemble to generate a probability of a valid gesture for the detected hand. The generated probability is compared with a defined decision threshold to generate a binary classification to classify the detected hand as a valid gesture or invalid gesture.

A method for acquiring a textual context of a user. The method includes: obtaining at least one character originating from at least one input peripheral device of an electronic device; optical character recognition applied to all or part of an image representative of a content displayed by at least one display peripheral device of the electronic device to obtain a character sequence; searching for the at least one character in the character sequence and, when the search is positive, acquisition, from the character sequence, of the textual context.

In a situation of setting a file name and the like by using a character string obtained by performing OCR processing to a scan image, a file name and the like can be immediately set with less calculation resources. There is provided an apparatus for performing a predetermined process to a scan image obtained by scanning a document, including: a display control unit configured to display a UI screen for performing the predetermined process, the UI screen displaying a character area in the scan image in a selectable manner to a user; and a setting unit configured to perform OCR processing to a character area selected by a user via the UI screen and set supplementary information for the predetermined process by using a character string extracted in the OCR processing, wherein the setting unit, during a period of time before a user makes the selection, performs OCR processing in advance under a predetermined condition to a character area included in the scan image, in a case where the selected character area is a character area having undergone OCR processing in advance, uses a result of the OCR processing to set supplementary information for the predetermined process.
