I have been working to design a system that uses multiple machine learning models to make sense of data that is dynamically webscraped. Each AI would handle a specific task, for example:

An AI model would identify text in an image, then attempt to create plain text of what it might be. Once the text is extracted, it would be passed in a stored variable to an AI that can read the text to determine if it is a US city/state.

I tried to look into if others have done this, but didn't find much on it relating to what I was looking for. Does anyone know if there are potential issues with this? Logically, it looks good to me, but I figured I'd ask.

If anyone can put me in the right direction for reading material or further information, I would appreciate it.

You have explained a pipeline of AI algorithms for text in images: 1) Text detection, 2) OCR, 3) named entity recognition (NER). There are reams of paper on these topics.

  • $\begingroup$ I think the keyword for OP is "pipeline". It is common practice to combine detectors, classifiers and other processing to create a pipeline. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 3, 2021 at 12:55
