kuzushiji OCR and Handwritten Text Recognition
To: <JpnLibL...@princeton.edu>
 
 
Dear colleagues,
 
We are pleased to announce the international DH symposium titled:
 
"New Frontiers in Digital Images and Texts: Recent Advances in Automatic
Character Recognition and Their Applications."
 
The symposium will take place on *Tuesday, June 3, starting at 13:30 (Japan
Standard Time)*, in Tokyo, and will be conducted in a hybrid format.
 
The symposium will feature key discussions led by Professor Peter Stokes,
co-leader of the escriptorium project at PSL University in Paris, renowned
for developing software for automatic handwritten text recognition, and Mr.
Toru Aoike from the National Diet Library of Japan, who specializes in
developing OCR for Japanese cursive scripts (kuzushiji). The discussions
will focus on the extraction and utilization of textual data from digital
images.
 
The symposium will primarily be conducted in Japanese; however,
simultaneous English interpretation will be available.
 
We warmly invite you to participate.

Hi Samantha,

It appeared they were recording last night, but I am not sure what the distribution will be. If I find out I'll be sure to share with the group.

Best,

Paula
