Transkribus Handwriting Text Recognition (HTR) engine has been trained on mid-C17th High Court of Admiralty Court records

MarineLives is structuring a project with the READ/Transkribus project team to explore key word spotting technology applied to English language legal records from the early and mid-C17th. The project is planned to start in April 2018 and to run through to October 2018.

We are also exploring the use of Transkribus tools to scan signatures and markes at the bottom of High Court of Admiralty depositions as input to a proposed April 2018 Data Study Group with the Alan Turing Institute.
