<p>A method and a system by which a document image (102) is analyzed for the purposes of establishing a searchable data structure characterizing ground-truthed contents of the document represented by the document image operates by segmenting (106) a document image into a set of image objects, and linking the image objects with fields that store metadata. Image objects identified by segmenting the document image are grouped into subsets. The image objects are grouped according to characteristics suggesting that the image objects may have common ground-truthed metadata. By grouping the image objects into subsets, the image objects may be indexed to facilitate the ground-truthing process. In some embodiments, the index of representative image objects is presented to the user in a table form. A database (116) of image objects with ground-truthed metadata is formed. Interactive tools and processes facilitate ground-truthing based on paired image objects and metadata.</p> |
