Abstract
Text Detection and Classification of Construction Documents Narges Sajadfar, Sina Abdollahnejad, Ulrich Hermann and Yasser Mohamed Pages 446-452 (2019 Proceedings of the 36th ISARC, Banff, Canada, ISBN 978-952-69524-0-6, ISSN 2413-5844) Abstract: Large construction projects generate thousands of documents that require a careful management. The classification of documents is an important step in document management and control. Construction documents are generated in different formats, many of which are unstructured and contain drawings and images, which makes the task of document classification and control even more challenging. In this paper, a dataset of 5000 documents is used as a case study. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) bounding boxes are applied to extract text from the set of documents. In the next step, two classification methods are applied. One based on a predefined set of keywords and another based on deep learning long short- term memory (LSTM) network. The challenges of the proposed approaches are discussed in relation to OCR bounding box locations with different document layout and how to obtain a set of representative key words for each class. Initial results of the study are encouraging and show that OCR technique combined with text classification is a powerful method for construction documents control and can reach an accuracy of 92%.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
