READ dataset Bozen
- 1. Pattern Recognition and Human Language Technologies
Description
This dataset arises from the READ project (Horizon 2020).
The dataset consists of a subset of documents from the Ratsprotokolle collection composed of minutes of the council meetings held from 1470 to 1805 (about 30.000 pages), which will be used in the READ project. This dataset is written in Early Modern German. The number of writers is unknown. Handwriting in this collection is complex enough to challenge the HTR software.
The training dataset is composed of 400 pages; most of the pages consist of a single block with many difficulties for line detection and extraction. The ground-truth in this set is in PAGE format and it is provided annotated at line level in the PAGE files.
