A blank template form generation method and system may employ synthetically generated blank template forms, differing from each other in one or more respects, to train a neural network to recognize relevant differences between otherwise similar forms, including types and locations of keywords and potential locations of values corresponding to the keywords. In an embodiment, filled or partly filled forms as well as blank template forms may be used later in training. Forms are input in pairs to identify differences between the two. Depending on the differences, weights of a neural network may be adjusted. After training, when a form is input into the system, whether the form is filled or blank, a blank template may be generated for future use.
