Standard Fields

These fields are generic and used in several products.

BaseField

Each prediction object contains a set of fields that inherit from the generic BaseField class. A typical BaseField object will have the following attributes:

  • value (Union[float, str]): corresponds to the field value. Can be None if no value was extracted.

  • confidence (float): the confidence score of the field prediction.

  • bounding_box ([Point, Point, Point, Point]): contains exactly 4 relative vertices (points) coordinates of a right rectangle containing the field in the document.

  • polygon (List[Point]): contains the relative vertices coordinates (Point) of a polygon containing the field in the image.

  • page_id (int): the ID of the page, always None when at document-level.

  • reconstructed (bool): indicates whether an object was reconstructed (not extracted as the API gave it).

A Point simply refers to a list of two numbers ([float, float]).

Aside from the previous attributes, all basic fields have access to a custom __str__ method that can be used to print their value as a string.

ClassificationField

The classification field ClassificationField does not implement all the basic BaseField attributes. It only implements value, confidence and page_id.

A classification field's `value is always a `str`. {% endhint %}

DateField

Aside from the basic BaseField attributes, the date field DateField also implements the following:

  • date_object (Date): an accessible representation of the value as a python object. Can be None.

StringField

The text field StringField only has one constraint: its value is an Optional[str].

Page-Level Fields

Some fields are constrained to the page level, and so will not be retrievable at document level.
