Tax Doc Classifier

Classify tax-document pages by IRS form and page kind with Jev.

What Jev decides

Which IRS form and which page kind best match the page text.

A text page is compared with descriptions of 261 IRS forms and seven page kinds; Jev returns option probabilities for code to gate.

Jev
CHOICE
Output
Choice distributions with form and page-kind confidence.

Overview

Tax Doc Classifier extracts text from a PDF page and asks Jev to select its IRS form and page kind from documented candidates. Form descriptions are stored in a JSON file derived from IRS PDFs; the project does not train or host a custom model. Code applies a confidence gate to the typed result.

The authors report strict accuracy on their own corpus and provide evaluation materials. That result should be read as author-reported, not as a guarantee for other documents. The classifier is English-only, identifies federal forms, and needs an OCR step for scanned pages.
