    Kudos especially to Viktoria Löfgren in our team for her work on this during our internal hackdays.

    We hope to do more substantial work on HTR and NER for medieval Swedish, and possibly Latin, in the coming years.

  9. Französische Volkszählungen 1836–1936 durchsuchbar

    Neben den französischen Pfarr- und Zivilregistern sind die Volkszählungen der kompletten Bevölkerung Frankreichs eine wertvolle Quelle für die Familien- und Ahnenforschung. Es gibt bereits vor 1789 Volkszählungslisten, aber erst seit 1836 wurden die Volkszählungen alle fünf Jahre (mit Ausnahme der Kriegsjahre 1871, 1916, 1941) in jeder Gemeinde durchgeführt. Nun sind die Listen der Französischen Volkszählungen 1836–1936 durchsuchbar gemacht. Die Listen enthalten im Allgemeinen […]

  16. We’re looking for a Research Data Engineer (m/f/x) (3,5 years). If you have a #DigitalHumanities profile with experience in #TEI encoding, #OCR / #HTR, and #IIIF (or any of those and are willing to learn the rest), get in touch! The full time position can be split, so if (for whatever reason) you’re interested in part-time work, we’re happy to discuss this. Boosts welcome.

  17. you go on and off for years to improve your reading skills of #Kurrent / #Sütterlin, even trying to adopt the latter as your "secret" handwriting and then: first comes #AI and seems to make all of it redundant as #HTR improves incredibly; then you go to an exhibition at #DHMBerlin and discover that to read #OttovonBismarck (or his secretary) it was all useless in the first place as he seems to have written in a nice, simple #Lateinschrift

  21. Today is *definitely* one of those days where I feel a strong kinship with crime drama authors as a pen & paper RPG storyteller.
    Because my last couple search engine queries would *definitely* seem suspicious without context. 🥴

    "What's the all-cause mortality rate in Northern Ireland?"
    "How long after death does a body get cold?"
    "How long after death do people still bleed?"
    "Can you buy blood in the UK?"
    "Can you sell blood in the UK?"

  22. Bookmarked: CoMMA: thousands of medieval manuscripts finally transcribed | Inria inria.fr/en/comma-medieval-man #HTR Transcribing thousands of medieval manuscripts by hand would be a monumental undertaking. Fortunately, researchers in computational humanities at the Inria Paris Centre have been able to automate the task through the use of generative AI. Their creation is CoMMA, a giant, one-of-a-kind corpus that will now be available to specialists in the humanit

  23. Kennt jemand gute Einstiegstutorial zum HTR? Ich möchte ein Model für HTR der polnischen und deutschen Handschrift für eigene Forschungszwecke entwickeln, bin ich aber in der Tesseract Dokumentation völlig lost.

    It's my last day of office before the holiday break; this year has been a bumpy one.
    With the re-organisation of the University Library set to become operative from Jan 2nd, there are still many unknowns ahead and bureaucratic hurdles to overcome.
    We always start the new year with a week full of workshops for #DigitalResearchActivities, and I will teach #HTR with Transkribus.

  28. "Von der Handschrift zum Volltext: HTR in der Digital History"
    digihistbie.hypotheses.org/771
    "Vor wenigen Jahren war Handwritten Text Recognition (#HTR) noch ein Nischenthema in der digitalen Geschichtswissenschaft. Inzwischen gehört sie zum methodischen Repertoire vieler Projekte und das nicht nur, weil sie die ressourcenintensive Arbeit des Transkribierens erleichtert, sondern auch, weil sie neue Perspektiven und Zugänge zu historischen Quellen eröffnet. …

  29. Handwritten Text Recognition hat sich zur Schlüsseltechnologie der digitalen Geschichtswissenschaft entwickelt. Doch die Wahl der Plattform – #Transkribus oder #eScriptorium – ist weit mehr als eine technische Frage:

    Die Entscheidung für eine HTR-Plattform beeinflusst auch, wie historische Quellen gelesen, verstanden und ausgewertet werden.

    HTR wird so zum epistemischen Instrument, das Forschung nicht nur unterstützt, sondern mitprägt, schreibt Melvin Wilde 👇

    Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to collaborate on #HTR model training for early 20th-century #English handwriting.

  31. As part of an Atrium workshop, my colleague Susan & I are trying to prepare #trainingdata to build a special #HTR model for early 20th-century handwriting from the British Isles in #escriptorium. Unfortunately, none of the existing #kraken models worked as a basis. We are now experimenting with different hands & image qualities. Dirty images (see below) distorted our model, so we focus on clean samples. Are other researchers interested in codeveloping a ground truth with us? Let us know!

  32. Coming up on October 3-4, 2025 at Central European University in Vienna: OCR/HTR Workshop for Under-resourced and Under-represented Languages in Digital Humanities, funded by the Cluster of Excellence EurAsian Transformations and by CLARIAH-AT!

  33. Am vergangenen Freitag und Samstag fand unser Sommerkurs „Schriftkulturen des Mittelalters in digitaler Perspektive“ in der Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin statt (blog.sbb.berlin/termin/mittela). Neben #TEI und #HTR ging es auch um #multispectral imaging und Materialanalyse. Wir hatten tolle Teilnehmende, die in den verschiedenen Hands-On-Sessions mitgemacht haben, z.b. in unserem Handschriftenlesesaal, um das digitale DinoLite-Mikroskop (UV, VIS, IR) kennenzulernen.

  34. My colleague Valentina Vavassori asked heritage organisations about how they do Automatic Text Recognition - the results were super interesting and rich - here's the data and a brief analysis: blogs.bl.uk/digital-scholarshi

  39. 📣 The #SustainableDSE network had the honour to showcase the newly launched digital collection and research platform for the 🇳🇴 Norwegian Folklore Archives, SAMLA. Read about the archives and how the various documents were transcribed using #Transkribus for #ATR #HTR on our #Blog dsenetwork.hypotheses.org/314 #Folklore #Folkloristics #Norway #Archive

  40. I should also say that @InsularMSS will involve not only #medieval #manuscript studies but also #digitalhumanities and scientific research: palaeoproteomics, #multispectral and photometric stereo #imaging, handwritten text recognition (#HTR), Raman and XRF #spectroscopy, infra-red #microscopy & much more. Perhaps most important, though, will be the freedom and time to do this important work!
