Together with Dáithí O’Flynn, James Lawlor, we have agreed to work on the Receipt Reader.
Both Dáithí and I are quite involved in societies, and expense tracking has always been quite laborious. I also personally think doing text extraction as a concept is really cool, especially when the use of any machine learning model is not permitted. It’s fun to go back to good ol’ algorithms!
Our final goal is to be able to take a photo of a receipt and pull out the relevant details.
Dáithí was quick to the draw and set up our GitHub Org for the project repo!
I’m a big fan of modules with interesting topics, especially with a module-long capstone, so I’m really looking forward to this!
