A base document class – which is also called base DocClass – is a
generic category that applies to all processed documents, such as “Invoices”.
You must pre-configure the classification for this class, as it is not trained
automatically, by assigning a classification engine or assigning the base
document class as the default classification result. Complete the following
steps.
-
To select a classification engine, complete the following
substeps.
-
Switch to
Definition Mode.
-
In the left pane, on the
Classes tab, right-click the base document
class and then click
Show Properties.
-
In the right pane, on the
Classification tab, select an engine.
-
To define a class as default classification result, complete the
following substeps.
-
Switch to
Definition Mode.
-
In the left pane, on the
Classes tab, right-click the project and
then click
Show Properties.
-
In the right pane, on the
Classification tab, from the
Default Classification Result list, select
a class.
Note: The Supervised Learning Workflow can only be
applied for base classes and their direct sub-classes. Only
administrators can select base classes that become SLW nodes, where
SLW node is a class node that defines how its sub-nodes are
automatically created and learned. The simplest way to define a
project’s SLW node classification is through its default
classification result. The method works if there is only one SLW
node.
-
Insert at least one header field (usually called a text field)
for which the
Associative Search Engine is selected as
the analysis engine.
-
Set the Classname Format on the
Analysis Editor. The header field is the one
that is used to find the document class name used to create a new
derived document class (if the class does not already exist), and then
to automatically classify the document.
-
Additionally, the Classification field on
document class-level must be defined. Select the Document
Class tab on the right side of the screen, and notice
the drop-down box for Classification field.
Select your generic document class for this setting from the drop-down
list.
