The doctoral workshop “Computerizing Handwritings: Current Approaches on
Historical Documents” will take place in Basel on June 27. Gathering
specialists from Switzerland (four presentations from Basel University, two
from Fribourg) and Europe (Germany, Nederland and France), it will offer the
opportunity for ten doctoral students and researchers to present their
ongoing projects in the field of Historical Documents Analysis and exchange
upon their approaches, methodologies and expected output. In this time of
Digital revolution, where new algorithms and processes appear and develop
extremely fast, it is crucial to maintain regular exchange between scholars
with common research interest. Specifically focusing on papyrology and
ancient manuscript studies, this workshop will promote fruitful discussions
between experts from Humanities and Computer Sciences.
