A new workshop at TUMO Center Yerevan, sharing AI and cultural heritage
|
|
| |
Chahan and Baptiste were in TUMO Center of Yerevan in early February for a two-weeks workshop. The TUMO students (from 14 to 18 y.o.) learned to develop their own Artificial Intelligence models, and to apply them on newspapers archives of the Fundamental Scientific Library (FSL) or Yerevan, our long-term partner in OCR developments.
Students built models to identify pictures contained in newspapers, or to detect the presence of human shapes in pages. These features are an introduction to what could help in making online archives more accessible.
TUMO student also get the opportunity to visit the FSL archive storage and digitization lab, in a tour led by the director of the library, Tigran Zargaryan.

Early HTR results after a hackathon for manuscripts in Arabic at the BULAC
|
|
| |
For three months, 20 master-degree and PhD-students have been trained to work on BULAC's Arabic manuscripts by our team. This hackathon was organized with the BULAC and the GIS Moyen-Orient et mondes musulmans lab (GIS MOMM) to develop a HTR model specially adapted to these manuscripts.
About 300 pages have been prepared by the students in total, and the early results unveiled a performing text recognition, with less than 3% of errors !
With the model currently being developped, more than 6.000 pages in handwritten Arabic will soon be recognized by Calfa HTR and published online.
