Ascent Xtrata Pro User's Guide

A project created with Project Builder is stored in its own project folder. The folder
includes the project file and a number of additional files that contain everything
needed to manage and execute the project. This project folder is portable; if desired,
it can be copied to another location and used from there.

Project Builder supports robust features for interactively testing project settings
during configuration and maintenance. Thorough testing, using your own sets of test
documents, is vitally important for evaluating the behavior of defined rules and
learned document samples. The settings can then be adjusted (and retested) until the
desired results are achieved.

Test documents can be displayed in an integrated document viewer. A test set may
contain any number of .tif, .txt, or .xdc files placed in one or more designated folders.
(.xdc is a proprietary file format used by Ascent Xtrata Pro that contains textual and
geometric information extracted from a .tif file by the built-in Optical Character
Recognition (OCR) engine.)

Project Builder has flexible features you can use to test classification results for the
entire test set or extraction results for a single document. Test results are displayed in
the Classification Results or Extraction Results panels for quick review. Or, you can
directly view the results in the Document Viewer when the document is displayed.

The results are also displayed in a result matrix, which provides a three-dimensional
column graph of the classification results. This matrix provides an immediate, highly
visual assessment of classification quality.
