Data Extraction from PDF Documents
Bartošák, Michal ; Bartík, Vladimír (referee) ; Burget, Radek (advisor)
The work focuses on extracting information from medical records saved in PDF format, which were created by heart pacemakers during regular patient monitoring in the hospital. The result of this work is a desktop application written in Java that retrieves and analyzes data from records using PDFBox and pdf2dom libraries. The output of the application is a CSV file, which represents the acquired values in table form, as well as extracted images that are saved to a user-defined output folder. Application testing on records from three different companies proved that record extraction is highly reliable (with overall precision and recall metrics reaching almost 100 % in every test), provided that the application arguments are correctly set.
