Building a Handwritten Text Detection API for Medical Charts
09-24, 11:55–12:30 (Europe/Lisbon), Auditorium

Medical Charts contain information which is documented in traditional Handwritten format which cannot be processed by NLP. Let's dig into how to build an API which detect handwritten information using FastAPI.


Talk Description:

                                        Introduction

We will discuss on the importance of detecting handwritten text in medical charts with some examples.

                                            Basics

We will mainly discuss about Object detection frameworks and go brief on Faster RCNN framework, how we implemented it using Detectron. We will then deploy the model through FastAPI.

                                         Methodology

We will go over through whole Data Cycle of Model. It includes curating, annotating and training the dataset and modelling it and then packaging it into an API.

In the end we will talk about the results and takeaway from the project.
