Kata Ágnes Szűcs · 2021
The digital edition of the József Kiss correspondence is a pilot project of the Centre for Digital Humanities, Petőfi Literary Museum. In addition to the processing of the personal and professional letters of the 19th-century writer, poet, and editor of the literary journal A Hét (The Week), the project is to explore the possibilities offered by the Transkribus software. Handwritten Text Recognition is an emerging field of the digital humanities. The paper will discuss this artificial intelligence-based technology and our experiences in creating a Hungarian model. The best result has a 6,94% character error rate. Apart from the practical experience gained in testing, the paper discusses the possibilities of implementing HTR in public collections.
