Abstract

The present disclosure relates to generating computer searchable text from digital images that depict documents utilizing an orientation neural network and/or text prediction neural network. For example, one or more embodiments detect digital images that depict documents, identify the orientation of the depicted documents, and generate computer searchable text from the depicted documents in the detected digital images. In particular, one or more embodiments train an orientation neural network to identify the orientation of a depicted document in a digital image. Additionally, one or more embodiments train a text prediction neural network to analyze a depicted document in a digital image to generate computer searchable text from the depicted document. By utilizing the identified orientation of the depicted document before analyzing the depicted document with a text prediction neural network, the disclosed systems can efficiently and accurately generate computer searchable text for a digital image that depicts a document.
