Short description of the project
The MultiHTR team is continuing the successful first project phase (June 1, 2020 to May 31, 2022) in order to expand the language portfolio in the second phase (June 1, 2022 to May 31, 2024) and make the latest advances in handwriting recognition (HTR) usable for the public and academia using artificial intelligence (AI). The overall project focuses on the (further) development of shorthand models for German, Yiddish written in the Hebrew alphabet, Ukrainian, Russian, Serbian and Ottoman. The automated transliteration and transcription models are intended to provide the public and researchers with access to previously inaccessible handwritten materials.
Project content
The MultiHTR team is continuing the results of the first successful project phase (June 1, 2020 to May 31, 2022) in order to expand the language portfolio in the second project phase (June 1, 2022 to May 31, 2024) and make the latest advances in the field of handwriting recognition (HTR) available to the population and academia. In this continuation, artificial intelligence (AI) will be used to develop advanced handwriting recognition models for languages and scripts not previously considered. The aim is to enable access to complex handwritten materials that were previously inaccessible to most users. The second phase focuses on the (further) development of shorthand models for German. In addition, a model for documents written in Hebrew Yiddish will be developed to make them accessible to descendants and the public. A further component is dedicated to the development of an HTR model for the Ukrainian language in order to make the indexing of Ukrainian-language archive holdings more efficient. At the same time, Ottoman-Turkish and Russian models are being further developed. The overarching goal of the project is to systematically advance progress in the field of handwriting recognition based on AI and to use the acquired technologies for the benefit of the population. In particular, the project focuses on the development of handwriting recognition models for German and for relevant migration languages in Germany/Baden-Württemberg. These models are to be trained by AI to automatically decode archive materials, ego documents and correspondence. In the first project phase, the project published models for Serbian and Russian. On the one hand, the automatically decoded texts serve as a basis for humanities research, in particular for micro-historical, discourse-analytical and sociolinguistic analyses. On the other hand, the population benefits directly by making complex, multilingual documents accessible without paleographic knowledge. The project is funded by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts as part of the state's digital@bw digitization strategy.

The long-term project funded by the NRW Academy of Sciences and Arts and the Union of German Academies at the University of Bonn explores the script and language of the Classic Maya culture. It aims to document Maya hieroglyphic inscriptions in a database and to catalog the hieroglyphic language in a digital dictionary. Sources such as literature, archives, and photo collections are researched, processed in the virtual research environment TextGrid, and published online. Information and images of inscriptions are stored in an object database and in the "Maya Image Archive," an open-access repository containing over 15,000 images, freely accessible to users.
