A java API to manipulate semi structured documents and extract data from them.

Description

In today's data-driven landscape, navigating the complexities of semi-structured documents poses a significant challenge for organizations. These documents, characterized by diverse formats and a lack of standardization, often require specialized skills for effective manipulation and analysis. However, we propose a novel framework to address this challenge. By leveraging innovative algorithms and machine learning techniques, Archery offers a solution that gives you control over the data extraction process with tweakable and repeatable settings. Moreover, by automating the extraction process, it not only saves time but also minimizes errors, particularly beneficial for industries dealing with large volumes of such documents. Crucially, this framework integrates with machine learning workflows, unlocking new possibilities for data enrichment and predictive modeling. By leveraging determinist algorithms, this framework is perfect to prepare your data for training processes in a predictive and reproductible manner. Aligned with the paradigm of data as a service, it offers a scalable and efficient means of managing semi-structured data, thereby expanding the toolkit of data services available to organizations.
