Dear all,

We are pleased to announce the opening of our call for proposals for the symposium "Ancient documents and automatic handwriting recognition", June 23 and 24, 2022 at the École nationale des chartes in Paris.

This symposium will propose to discuss HTR while articulating it to scientific problems of constitution and/or exploitation of corpora. We wish to question the practical aspects of this technology (development of HTR engines, transcription interface, user interface to use and train models, etc.), while raising its methodological issues and its impact on research data.

You can send us your proposals until February 28 via the dedicated platform. The proposals should be between 750 and 1000 words (excluding bibliography and figures). They can be written in French or in English.

You will find the complete call  at the following address: https://dahtr.sciencesconf.org.

For any information request, you can contact us at the following address: dahtr@sciencesconf.org 

Do not hesitate to share this information,

Yours sincerely,

Ariane Pinche for the organizing committee
