Abstract
Methods and systems for operator intervention in a document processing system are disclosed. One possible method includes capturing images of documents within a document processing system. The method further includes executing computerized analysis of the images to establish an acceptability determination regarding the images. The method further includes manually reviewing the computer analysis of the images to confirm or override the acceptability determination.
Claims13
A document processing system comprising:
- a control system;
- a document imaging device, controlled by the control system, the document imaging device configured to create digital images of documents;
- an image analyzing device, controlled by the control system, the image analyzing device configured to analyze the digital images created by the document imaging device;
- a document receiving apparatus, controlled by the control system, the document receiving apparatus configured to receive the imaged documents in a plurality of pockets;
- and
- an operator override device configured to allow manual input into the control system to override the analysis of the image analyzing device.
A document processing system for creating images of documents conforming to defined image quality standards and using system operator intervention and override to decrease processing time, wherein the system comprises:
- means for controlling the various components of the system;
- means for imaging documents;
- means for automatically analyzing images to decide, based on defined image quality standards, whether an image is acceptable or unacceptable;
- means for temporarily storing imaged documents;
- means for allowing a system operator to override automatic image quality analysis decisions.
