And the last speaker on the #ChartingDSEA OCR panel: Matthias Arnold on: "Towards fulltext of Republican Chinese newspapers" - how can segmentation work in complex newspaper layouts? Crowdsourcing, machine learning, annotation, OCR classification as processes forbrecognising registers and contents.

~ "Ground truths" essential for working with neural networks! ~

And concluding this panel, Nobutake Kamiya and
Tamako Kitaoka ask how students, researchers and teachers can find and use their desired information among vast collections of Japanese resources. They propose the 'Collaborative Resource Guide for Japanese Studies and Humanities in Japan', and highlight the collaboration necessary to maintain such infrastructure and update the research guide, at #EAJRS and the National Institutes for the Humanities.
