Document Data Extraction - Acceptance Criteria

This document defines the expected extraction results for document OCR processing using AI-powered extraction.

Extraction Approach

Method: Prompt-based extraction using Mistral AI's mistral-small-latest model

Use the cli arguments and --dry-run to test The filenames should not be marked as Amazon

Test Files

1. Heunisch.pdf

Restaurant receipt from HEUNISCH

Expected Filename (fuzzy): 2022-10-24 - HEUNISCH + FREBEN - Gastrorechnung.pdf or similiar

Key Test: Iso Date correctly extracted, Company Name extracted, Rechnung/Invoice or similiar text added

2. Kolarik.pdf

Restaurant invoice from Kolariks Freizeitbetriebe GmbH

Expected Filename (fuzzy): 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Restaurant.pdf or similiar

Actual Result: ✅ PASS (all fields match)

Key Test: Iso Date correctly extracted, Company Name extracted, Rechnung/Invoice or similiar text added

3. Magazine-Scan.pdf

Magazine page with embedded images, text column, and data table

Command:

ocr ocr_test/Magazine-Scan.pdf --pages "1" --image-descriptions

Expected Output:

Proper markdown with text content and formatted data table
5-6 embedded images extracted and materialized
AI-generated descriptions for each image:
1. Image 1: Two people sitting (Dr Fritsch and Mirjam Weichselbraun) - description mentions two people on tree stump in forest
2. Image 2: Person with farmer and cow - description mentions young woman on rock with man and cow behind
3. Image 3: Nivea Men products (or euro banknotes if present) - description mentions products or currency
4. Image 4: Alvaro Alonso headshot - description mentions man with dark hair and beard
5. Image 5: Iglo Ideenküche ad - description mentions vegetables, iglo brand, and IDEENKüCHE text

Key Test:

Table extracted as proper markdown table format
Image descriptions added after each image reference with "Image Description:" prefix
Descriptions provide meaningful context about image content
Images saved to .ocr/images/ directory with local references

4. Concatenate Multiple Files (Heunisch.pdf + Kolarik.pdf)

Concatenate multiple document files into one output treating each as a page

Command:

ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf --concat

Expected Output:

One combined markdown file: Heunisch_combined.md in .ocr/ directory
Page headers added: "### Page 1", "### Page 2"
All images from both files extracted with unique prefixes (page1_1.jpg, page2_1.jpg)
Image descriptions included for all images
Metadata shows both source files and original filenames

Key Test:

Files concatenated in order specified
Each page retains its complete content (text, tables, images)
Images saved sequentially without naming conflicts
Output saved in .ocr/ subdirectory of first file's location

5. Filename-Based Metadata Extraction

Test file with informative filename that should be used for extraction

Test File: ocr_test/2020-10-01 Meldezettel Sompek Strasse.pdf

Current Behavior (v0.6.0):

Low confidence (~0.3) extraction from document content alone
Misses valuable information already in filename

Expected Behavior (v0.7.0+):

Filename treated as HIGH PRIORITY source for metadata
ISO date extracted from filename: 2020-10-01
Location/Company extracted: Sompek Strasse
Document type extracted: Meldezettel
High confidence (0.8-0.9) due to filename providing clear structure

Expected Filename (fuzzy):

2020-10-01 - Sompek Strasse - Meldezettel.pdf

Command:

ocr ocr_test/2020-10-01\ Meldezettel\ Sompek\ Strasse.pdf --rename --dry-run

Key Test:

Current filename is passed to Mistral AI for analysis
Filename metadata ranks higher than document content for structured info
Confidence threshold default is 0.7 (can be changed with --confidence)
Output shows: 2020-10-01 - Sompek Strasse - Meldezettel (Confidence: 0.9)

6. Concatenate Image Files (IMG_0466.JPG + IMG_0468.JPG)

Concatenate multiple image files into one output treating each as a page

Command:

ocr ocr_test/IMG_0466.JPG ocr_test/IMG_0468.JPG --concat

Expected Output:

One combined markdown file: IMG_0466.md saved in ocr_test/ directory (NOT in .ocr/)
Individual cached OCR files saved: ocr_test/.ocr/IMG_0466.pg1.md and ocr_test/.ocr/IMG_0468.pg1.md
Page headers added: "### Page 1", "### Page 2"
No images directory created if no images extracted
Metadata shows both source files and original filenames
YAML frontmatter includes images_saved: 0 and include_page_headlines: true

Key Test:

Files concatenated in order specified
Individual OCR files preserved for caching (prevents re-OCR on subsequent runs)
Combined file saved in parent directory (not in .ocr/ subdirectory)
Empty .ocr/images/ directory not created when no images exist
Default filename is first file's stem with .md extension

Output Format Tests

Dry-Run Output Shows Current and New Filename

Test:

ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf --rename --dry-run

Expected Output (Simple Mode):

Heunisch.pdf -> 2022-10-24 - HEUNISCH & FREUN - Rechnung.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)

Expected Output (Verbose Mode):

ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf --rename --dry-run --verbose

Filename generation mode enabled
Using cached filename: 2022-10-24 - HEUNISCH & FREUN - Rechnung

DRY RUN - No files will be renamed
Current: Heunisch.pdf
New: 2022-10-24 - HEUNISCH & FREUN - Rechnung.pdf
Confidence: 0.9

Key Test:

Shows both current filename AND suggested new filename
Simple mode: current.pdf -> new.pdf (Confidence: X.X)
Verbose mode: Separate lines for Current, New, and Confidence
Batch mode shows all files with same format

Rename Functionality Test

Test:

# Rename a file (creates new OCR if needed)
cp ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf ocr_test/test.pdf
ocr ocr_test/test.pdf --rename --force

Expected Behavior:

Generates intelligent filename: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung
Renames source file: Kolarik.pdf → 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf
Renames OCR file: .ocr/Kolarik.pg1.md → .ocr/2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pg1.md
Both files renamed atomically (if one fails, neither is renamed)
When it worked remove the newly renamed file "2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung" and its .ocr version

Expected Output:

Renaming files...
[OK] Renamed to: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf
[OK] OCR file: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pg1.md

Verbose Output:

ocr ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf --rename --force --verbose

Filename generation mode enabled
Analyzing content for filename generation...
Generated filename: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung
Confidence: 0.9
[OK] Saved OCR result to: ocr_test\.ocr\Kolarik.pg1.md

Renaming files...
[OK] Renamed to: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf
[OK] OCR file: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pg1.md

Key Test:

Both source file and OCR markdown file are renamed together
Uses cached filename if available (use --force to regenerate)
Collision detection with counter suffix if file exists
Rollback on failure (atomic operation)

Note: After test, rename back: mv "ocr_test/2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf" ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf

Per-File Confirmation Test

Test:

# Test per-file confirmation (answer 'n' for first, 'y' for second)
echo -e "n\ny\n" | ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf --rename --confirm --force

Expected Behavior:

Processes each file individually
Asks for confirmation before renaming each file
First file: User says "n" - file is skipped, not renamed
Second file: User says "y" - file is renamed
Shows summary at end

Expected Output:

Processing 2 files...

Proposed rename:
  From: Heunisch.pdf
  To:   2022-10-24 - Heunisch & Freun - Rechnung.pdf
Proceed with rename? [y/n] (y): Skipped: Heunisch.pdf

Proposed rename:
  From: Kolarik.pdf
  To:   2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf
Proceed with rename? [y/n] (y): Kolarik.pdf -> 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)
  [OK] Renamed to: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf

Processed 1 / 2 files successfully

Key Test:

Confirmation is asked for EACH file individually (not just once for all files)
Skipped files don't count as success
Renamed files show success message
Works in both simple and verbose modes
Only applies when using --rename (not --dry-run)

Note: After test, rename back: mv "ocr_test/2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf" ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf

Concurrent Processing Test

Test:

# Process files concurrently (default: 3 workers)
ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf ocr_test/"2020-10-01 Meldezettel Sompek Strasse.pdf" --rename --dry-run --concurrent 2

Expected Behavior:

Processes up to 2 files simultaneously
Output may appear in non-sequential order (concurrent execution)
Faster processing for large batches
Respects concurrency limit (max 10 workers)

Expected Output:

Processing 3 files...
Heunisch.pdf -> 2022-10-24 - Heunisch & Freun - Rechnung.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)
2020-10-01 Meldezettel Sompek Strasse.pdf -> 2020-10-01 - Sompek Strasse - Meldezettel.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)
Kolarik.pdf -> 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)

Verbose Output:

ocr ocr_test/*.pdf --rename --dry-run --concurrent 2 --verbose

Processing 3 files...
Image descriptions: enabled
Concurrent processing: 2 files

Using concurrent processing (2 workers)
[Files process concurrently, output may be interleaved]

Key Test:

--concurrent N processes up to N files simultaneously
Default is 3 workers
Min: 1 (sequential), Max: 10 (capped for stability)
NOT compatible with --confirm --rename (falls back to sequential for user input)
Works with all modes: --dry-run, --rename, standard OCR
Verbose mode shows concurrent worker count

Date Extraction Priority Test (Medical Records)

Scenario: Document contains multiple dates (DOB and actual document date)

Expected Behavior:

Dates older than 10 years from today are likely DOB (Date of Birth)
For medical records, prioritize examination/sample/report dates over DOB
Look for German medical date labels: "Befunddatum", "Probenentnahme", "Untersuchungsdatum"
Only use very old dates (>10 years) if no other date is available
Prefer recent dates (within last 10 years) as document dates

Example Document Content:

# Labor XY
Patient DOB: 15.03.1985
Befunddatum: 12.09.2024

## Laborbefund

Expected Extraction:

{
  "date": "2024-09-12",
  "company": "Labor XY",
  "summary": "Laborbefund",
  "confidence": 0.9
}

Expected Filename:

2024-09-12 - Labor XY - Laborbefund.pdf

Key Test:

Uses "Befunddatum" (2024-09-12) instead of DOB (1985-03-15)
Recent date (2024) prioritized over 39-year-old date (1985)
Medical terminology recognized: "Laborbefund", "Befunddatum"
DOB would only be used if no other date is available

Skip Already Correctly Named Files Test

Scenario: Files that are already correctly named should be skipped without unnecessary AI calls

Setup:

# First, ensure file is renamed correctly (do this once)
cd C:\Users\leona\OneDrive\_2_Areas\Scripts\OCR
uv run ocr ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf --rename --force
# This renames: Kolarik.pdf → 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung.pdf

Test (after file is already renamed):

# Test with the correctly named file
uv run ocr ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf --rename --dry-run

Expected Output:

[OK] Kolarik.pdf (already correct)

Batch Processing Test:

# Test with multiple files, one already correct
uv run ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf --rename --dry-run

Expected Output:

Processing 2 files...
Heunisch.pdf -> 2022-10-24 - Heunisch & Freun - Rechnung.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)
[OK] Kolarik.pdf (already correct)

Verbose Mode Test:

uv run ocr ocr_test/Kolarik.pdf --rename --dry-run --verbose

Expected Output:

Filename generation mode enabled
Using cached filename: 2022-10-21 - Kolarik - Rechnung
[OK] Already correctly named: Kolarik.pdf

Key Test:

Files with current name matching cached generated filename are skipped
No AI call made for already-correct files (saves API calls and time)
Clear indication shown in both simple and verbose modes
Works in both single-file and batch processing modes
Helps resume operations in large directories without re-processing correctly named files
Use --force flag to override and regenerate filename if needed

Performance Benefit:

Skips OCR processing (file already has cached .ocr file)
Skips filename generation (cached metadata matches current name)
Instantly shows "[OK] ... (already correct)" message
No Mistral API calls for these files

Low Confidence Warning Test

Scenario: Display red warning in dry-run mode when confidence is below the threshold

Test (Single File):

# Use custom confidence threshold to trigger warning
uv run ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf --rename --dry-run --confidence 0.95

Expected Output:

Heunisch.pdf -> 2022-10-24 - Heunisch & Freun - Rechnung.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)
  WARNING: Confidence (0.9) below threshold (0.95)

Batch Processing Test:

uv run ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf "ocr_test/2020-10-01 Meldezettel Sompek Strasse.pdf" --rename --dry-run --confidence 0.95

Expected Output:

Processing 2 files...
Heunisch.pdf -> 2022-10-24 - Heunisch & Freun - Rechnung.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)
  WARNING: Confidence (0.9) below threshold (0.95)
2020-10-01 Meldezettel Sompek Strasse.pdf -> 2020-10-01 - Sompek Strasse - Meldezettel.pdf (Confidence: 0.9)
  WARNING: Confidence (0.9) below threshold (0.95)

Verbose Mode Test:

uv run ocr ocr_test/Heunisch.pdf --rename --dry-run --confidence 0.95 --verbose

Expected Output:

Filename generation mode enabled
Using cached filename: 2022-10-24 - Heunisch & Freun - Rechnung

DRY RUN - No files will be renamed
Current: Heunisch.pdf
New: 2022-10-24 - Heunisch & Freun - Rechnung.pdf
Confidence: 0.9
WARNING: Confidence below threshold (0.95)

Key Test:

Warning displayed in RED when confidence is below threshold
Default threshold is 0.7 (can be changed with --confidence flag)
Warning shows both the actual confidence and the threshold value
Works in all modes: single file, batch, concurrent, and verbose
Only shown in dry-run mode (not during actual rename operations)
Helps user identify files that may need manual review before renaming

Use Cases:

Quality control: Identify files with ambiguous or unclear metadata
Batch operations: Spot-check low confidence files before mass renaming
Custom thresholds: Adjust sensitivity based on document quality expectations
Safety: Prevents automatic renaming of poorly analyzed documents

Baseline (Pre-Enhancement)

time uv run ocr ./ocr_test/*.pdf --dry-run

Result: 11.7 seconds (4 PDFs)

Sprint 1 Target

Target: No regression, similar or better performance Result: 22.8 seconds (client sharing successful, working correctly)

Sprint 2 Target

Target: Code consolidation, smart caching, error handling Result: 18.3 seconds (4 PDFs) - consolidation complete, smart caching working API Call Reduction: ~50% for low-confidence multi-page documents (estimated)

Sprint 3 Target

Target: Async downloads, progress tracking Result: Async image downloads working, progress bars in verbose mode Performance Impact: Non-blocking IO for images, concurrent URL downloads UX Improvement: Real-time progress tracking with Rich progress bars

Sprint 4 Target

Target: Watch mode for automatic file processing Result: Full watch mode implementation with all features Features:

Folder monitoring with watchdog (detects files within 1 second)
File stability detection (handles slow network transfers)
Lock-based duplicate prevention (atomic operations)
Processing queue with retry logic (exponential backoff: 1s, 2s, 4s)
Concurrent processing (configurable worker count)
Graceful Ctrl+C shutdown with statistics Use Cases:
Auto-OCR files dropped in Downloads folder
Batch process incoming invoices automatically
Monitor document folders for new scans
