A Multimodal Approach to Dictation of Handwritten Historical Documents
Handwritten Text Recognition is a problem that has gained attention in the last years due to the interest in the transcription of historical documents. Handwritten Text Recognition employs models that are similar to those employed in Automatic Speech Recognition (Hidden Markov Models and n-grams). Dictation of the contents of the document is an alternative to text recognition. In this work, we ...
متن کاملTranscribing continuous speech using mismatched crowdsourcing
Mismatched crowdsourcing derives speech transcriptions using crowd workers unfamiliar with the language being spoken. This approach has been demonstrated for isolated word transcription tasks, but never yet for continuous speech. In this work, we demonstrate mismatched crowdsourcing of continuous speech with a word error rate of under 45% in a large-vocabulary transcription task of short speech...
متن کاملAn iterative multimodal framework for the transcription of handwritten historical documents
The transcription of historical documents is one of the most interesting tasks in which Handwritten Text Recognition can be applied, due to its interest in humanities research. One alternative for transcribing the ancient manuscripts is the use of speech dictation by using Automatic Speech Recognition techniques. In the two alternatives similar models (Hidden Markov Models and n-grams) and deco...
متن کاملDigitizing a large corpus of handwritten documents using crowdsourcing and cultural consensus theory
We investigated using Internet-based procedures to convert information from a large handwritten archive of ethnographic survey data into a computer addressable database. Rather than manually transcribe the archive’s estimated 23,000 pages of handwritten data, we sought to develop novel approaches that used crowdsourced designs for transcribing the handwritten data, and then to use an innovative...
متن کاملConnected Component Based Word Spotting on Persian Handwritten image documents
Word spotting is to make searchable unindexed image documents by locating word/words in a doc-ument image, given a query word. This problem is challenging, mainly due to the large numberof word classes with very small inter-class and substantial intra-class distances. In this paper, asegmentation-based word spotting method is presented for multi-writer Persian handwritten doc-...
