Invoice Collection Requirement Document (Japanese or Korean language)

Purpose and Use of Data: The collection of invoice images is a critical part of our ongoing efforts to develop and refine Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. This data will be instrumental in training a machine learning model aimed at invoice processing optimization. Our goal is to create an advanced system that can accurately and efficiently extract information from invoice documents. This project serves a greater good by enhancing the capabilities of automated systems to understand and process complex textual information. Scope of Collection: Volume: We aim to collect 1,000 high-quality invoice images for each language category: Japanese and Korean. Criteria for Invoice Collection: 1. File Format: - Invoices are to be collected in JPG, PNG, or PDF formats. 2. Source and Language: - Invoices must be obtained from authentic Japanese or Korean sources. - Text within the invoices must be in the Japanese or Korean language. 3. Quality and Legibility: - Clarity and legibility are paramount; invoices must be easily readable by human eyes. - Acceptable invoices include original digital copies and high-quality scanned images. 4. Source Diversity: - To ensure a comprehensive dataset, limit collection to a maximum of five invoices per company. Note: 1. Internet downloaded images will not be accepted. 2. Only horizontal formats are acceptable for invoices. Use of Data: - The data collected will be exclusively used for machine learning and invoicing optimization. We will not use the data for any other purpose without explicit consent. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): 1. Multiple Invoices from the Same Company: - While invoices from the same company are acceptable, they should not exceed five to maintain data diversity. 2. Invoices from Japanese and Korean Companies: - The requirement is for invoices written in Japanese or Korean, regardless of the company's location. 3. Acceptability of Internet Downloads: - Downloaded images from the internet are not permitted; only original or scanned invoices from credible sources are acceptable. Distinguishing Between Invoice and Receipt: -Invoice: - An invoice is a formal document issued by the seller requesting payment for services or goods provided.  -Receipt: - A receipt is a proof of payment provided after a transaction is completed. Note: Only invoices are to be collected for this project; receipts are not acceptable. Submission Guidelines: - Invoices must be submitted in line with our data security protocols. - Each invoice should be correctly named and categorized as per the established taxonomy. - Thoroughly check each invoice against the outlined criteria before submission.
