Automated Text Recognition – Making (Handwritten) Documents Accessible

This tutorial is aimed at beginners in the use of Automated Text Recognition (ATR) as well as at refreshing and systematizing existing knowledge. In five chapters, the functionality and operation of this new technology is presented. We aim to introduce possible preliminary considerations as well as useful metrics. However, due to the rapid pace of development, we refrain from outlining processes and instructions for action on the specific platforms.

This module places great emphasis on considering the efficiency and benefits of different approaches depending on your specific corpus.
