South America: A Polarized Continent

Artificial Intelligence and OCR

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Currently I am only able to locate companies that are using images (pictures) for AI. Is anyone aware of companies or individuals that are using AI to comb through PDF documents (blueprints, schematics, diagrams etc…). I am interested in mining data out of these types of documents for analytical purposes, but I haven’t found anyone doing it. Any help is appreciated (including other sub-reddits this might be more applicable too).
