Document Intelligence for Banking - Towards Automated Back Offices

Abstract: 

Before re-joining CSIRO, Dr. Jiajun Liu used to lead a software company that provides AI-driven software solutions to the banking industry. In particular, they employ a series of technologies including NLP, OCR, knowledge graph, reasoning, to help the banks simplify and automate their document review processes.  They also created multiple AI Workflow/Dev-Ops platforms to reduce the labelling/model development, evaluation, deployment/full stack customisation costs. In this presentation Jiajun will share their technologies, use cases, software practice and reflections.
