General Release Notes - Document Understanding^TM

17 May

What's new

In this latest release, we've made substantial enhancements to the performance of the Generative Extractor, specifically resolving these noted issues:

• Deteriorating performance when asking more than 10 questions.
• Variations in responses to a particular question whenever a new question is added or an existing one is modified.

Additionally, we've boosted the performance and precision of all our generative AI features, including Generative Extractor, Generative Classifier, and Generative Predict.

Generative Extractor and Classifier in Discovery APIs

We are excited to announce that Generative Extractor and Generative Classifier are now returned in Discovery APIs. You can use this to process pages using Generative Classifier or Generative Extractor in APIs.

For more information, check the Use the Discovery APIs section from the Document Understanding APIs guide.

Boost extraction confidence when extracting Document Data by APIs

A new parameter, boostExtractionConfidence, is now available. This parameter is used to boost the extraction confidence when extracting Document Data with APIs.

For more information, check the Use the Extraction Service section from the Document Understanding APIs user guide.

Bug fixes

We fixed a bug in Document Manager for classic projects which was causing differences between the score of the training pipeline and the performance obtained in a running automation. This issue affects in particular low diversity datasets (with under 10 layouts) in both Automation Cloud™ and Automation Suite. You'll notice the issue most clearly when a document processed in a robot workflow ends up with poorer results compared to those from the Excel evaluation file in the AI Center pipeline artifacts folder.

This fix will also be included in the June Cumulative Update for Automation Suite version 2023.10.

To benefit from this fix, re-export your dataset from the Document Manager session. Afterwards, simply proceed with the usual steps for training, testing, and deploying your model.
