Automated Transcription of Handwritten Text: READ and TRANSKRIBUS (An Experiment with Transcribing Letters of Andrej Kmeť) [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The study focuses on a brief description of the READ (Recognition and Enrichment of Archival Documents) European Research Project 1 , 2 , implemented in 2016-2019 under the Horizon 2020 programme. The research project was supervised directly by the European Commission and was evaluated by independent evaluators on annual basis 3. The main outcome of the project is the Transkribus platform and tool, which represents a fundamental global innovation focused on transcription of historical manuscripts and documents. The author, as one of the evaluators of the READ Project describes his experience and knowledge gained during the experimental transcription of the handwritten letters by Andrej Kmeť. He explains his view of Digital Humanities as the methodological context of the READ project, and provides a brief description of the scanning process, image loading, segmentation and automatic transcription, as well as particular examples of automatic transcription of the handwritten letters by Andrej Kmeť, and the experiment's results.
