Abstract
Systems and methods are configured to extract text from images (e.g., document images) utilizing a combination of optical character recognition processes and neural network-based analysis of various images to train a machine-learning object recognition model that is configured to identify text within images based on object-comparisons between known and unknown text within images. In certain embodiments, identified text within images may be utilized to identify corresponding regions-of-interest for extraction of image data encompassing a portion of an image that may be indexed based at least in part on text identified as corresponding to the particular region-of-interest.
