New framework evaluates financial document recognition by risk and human-centric factors

A new paper proposes a human-centered, risk-constrained framework for evaluating financial document recognition systems. This framework moves beyond simple error rates to assess how well systems preserve critical financial facts and support decision-making. It introduces a layered quality model that includes aspects like text accuracy, localization, layout, table interpretation, and evidence grounding, with specific attention to non-compensatory acceptance gates for critical fields such as amounts and identifiers. The paper also outlines methods for selective automation of document recognition tasks based on residual risk and human review costs. AI

IMPACT This framework could lead to more reliable AI systems for financial document processing, improving accuracy and reducing financial risks.

    Human-Centred, Risk-Constrained Evaluation of Financial Document Recognition: Evidence, Critical Errors, and Selective Automation

    arXiv:2611.02775v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Financial document recognition is often assessed using character and word error rates, although these metrics do not express whether a system preserves the financial facts on which people and organisations act. This paper …
