The software solution for your digitization projects of cultural heritage
KAITOS is a professional software that comprehensively enables the digitization of cultural content, such as monographs, manuscripts, periodicals, old prints, old maps, and other precious sources. Kaitos is created for universities, libraries, museums or digitization units around the world.
KAITOS provides complete tools for digitizing library, archive, and museum collections according to current standards, and can be easily adapted to fit the specific needs of individual institutions. Kaitos uses built-in workflow features and a number of automation elements to adapt to digitization projects of any size.
At the core of Kaitos software are its neural networks that digitize, tag, and extract information from cultural heritage documents.
Key functions
✔ Pre-processing / scan detection / page type classification
✔ Cropping and alignment adjustments
✔ Document content layout (OLR) analysis
✔ Page text extraction (Semantic OCR)
✔ Structuring and storing extracted information in standard formats
✔ PSP generation (Producer Submission Package)
Logical block position recognition
Page type classification, OCR semantic extraction and automatic text detection.
“The operator becomes the manager.”
All demanding manual work (cropping and alignment, page classification, generating packages…) is completely replaced by artificial intelligence.
“Convolutionary and recurrent neural networks.“
Convolutional neural networks achieve unprecedented results in the field of image recognition: image classification, object detection, text reading or face recognition, and more.
For the purpose of reading texts, recurrent neural networks are used, which are suitable for sequence recognition due to the internal state representation.
