Abstract :
Using example-based Pattern Recognition methods and combining years of developing both EDGAR filings and natural language processing software, BCL Technologies has developed SmartXBRL©, a simplified and automated way to create a compliant XBRL document. In this paper we describe the methods adopted to identify and extract the face financial tables, Document and Entity Information (DEI), Parenthetical, and financial Notes from a 10-Q financial document.
