Recognizing text in image data

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive image data representing a document,
• the document including:
• text, and
• a plurality of edges;
• identify, based on the plurality of edges, a plurality of segments within the image data;
• identify, from the plurality of segments, a segment of interest based on a location of the segment of interest within the image data;
• crop the segment of interest to obtain a portion of the image data;
• perform optical character recognition on the portion of the image data,
• the optical character recognition producing recognized text;
• obtain, based on the recognized text, validation data,
• the validation data including verification text;
• determine whether the recognized text is verified based on the verification text,
• the recognized text including a recognized account identifier,
• the recognized account identifier being compared to a corresponding account from a database,
• information from the corresponding account being compared to other information recognized in the image data to determine whether the recognized account identifier is accurate;
• and
• perform an action based on the recognized text.

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a device, image data representing a document,
• the document including:
• text, and
• a plurality of edges;
• receiving, by the device, data identifying text of interest associated with the image data;
• identifying, by the device and based on the plurality of edges, a plurality of segments within the image data;
• identifying, by the device and from the plurality of segments, a segment of interest,
• the segment of interest including the text of interest;
• cropping, by the device, the segment of interest to obtain a portion of the image data;
• performing, by the device, optical character recognition on the portion of the image data,
• the optical character recognition producing recognized text,
• the recognized text including the text of interest;
• obtaining, by the device, based on the recognized text, validation data,
• the validation data including verification text;
• determining, by the device, whether the recognized text is verified based on the verification text,
• the recognized text including a recognized account identifier,
• the recognized account identifier being compared to a corresponding account from a database,
• information from the corresponding account being compared to other information recognized in the image data to determine whether the recognized account identifier is accurate;
• and
• performing, by the device, an action based on the recognized text.
