Abstract:
In order to fulfill the desires of my team’s clients for the CS498 capstone project, I needed to
design a software that could look at an image of a financial statement and create a list of the
assets shown. This functionality was well-suited to a style of software project called a library.
This library was created to provide a simple set of commands that summarize a far more
complicated process of interacting with Amazon Web Service Textract machine-learning
character recognition software. In addition, the library provides a useful set of tools for
interacting with the dataset after AWS Textract has performed its analysis. Included with the
library is a simple web application server that mimics the same use-case as the capstone project,
providing an example of how to implement the library effectively.
