HisDoc Workshop in Fribourg

After a successful workshop two years ago, we invite Swiss Researchers to a Joint Workshop on Historical Document Analysis in Switzerland. We would like to use this opportunity in order to encourage exchanging information about current work and perspectives on Historical Document Recognition and Processing in Switzerland.
Many international and national projects focus on various kinds of historical documents. Each participating group will have the chance to give a 15 minutes’ presentation about their finished, ongoing, and envisaged research.
As a highlight, two influential international researchers will give keynote presentations about current trends and novel challenges in the digital humanities. In a poster session, individual PhD theses, related projects, and novel ideas can be presented and discussed with more detail. Finally, in a concluding panel discussion we will speak about the role of Switzerland in the international research community.
