Les 10 et 11 avril 2014, à Venise, se tiendra un atelier de réflexion sur la paléographie numérique : Digital Paleography. Projects, prospects, potentialities (An International Workshop).

Programme et argumentaire : Digital paleography workshop – Venice – 10-11 April 2014

Le projet Oriflamms et ses avancées seront présentées durant la troisième session, le 11 avril au matin.

L’atelier explorera un champ de recherche à la pointe et examinera les potentialités des technologies de l’informations appliquées au systèmes graphiques non-imprimés, quel qu’en soit le support.

Trois thèmes principaux seront abordés :

• état de l’art
• diversité des approches et potentialités dans la reconnaissance automatisée des écritures médiévales
• écritures personnelles des XVIe-XVIIIe siècles

The present international workshop addresses a recent cutting-edge research field which explores the potentialities lying in the application of information technologies to non-printed graphic systems on whatever writing surface.
The workshop proposes to explore three principal themes: the digital paleography state of the art; the potentiality of different approaches applied to automatic digital recognition of medieval handwritings; the problem of sixteenth-eighteenth centuries individual handwriting digital recognition, in particular in wills from the Venetian State Archives, as part of the “Venice Time Machine Project” recently launched by Università Ca’ Foscari, Digital Humanities Lab (DHLAB), EPFL, Lausanne and the Archivio di Stato di Venezia.
The workshop is open to students of both Bachelor and Master levels (with credit recognition of substitute activity for the traineeship), for Ph.D. students and for all those interested in the theme.
