Man, #digipal is so cool; sorry to be missing it this year (too). And the medievalists keep putting early modernist palaeographers to shame.
Dreamed of handwriting recognition tools. Lots of food for thought from #digipal yesterday – thanks again to @Stewart_Brookes & @pa_stokes !
Ganz's talk reminds me of the vast difference between medieval books and early modern letters. Utterly different scribal worlds. #digipal
Ganz suggesting scribes to be treated as artists – so script-switching (polygraphism) can be purely aesthetic? #digipal
"This filter reduces the intensity of the correlation plain in all non-peak locations". What a sentence in a palaeography paper! #digipal
This is the Key Q in DH. MT @heatherfro: how to get these wonderful projects working together on a collaborative platform? #eebotcp #digipal
Training MONK to recognize patterns in handwriting is analogous to training VARD to normalize EModE spelling . #digipal #CorpusLinguistics
The tweets from #eebotcp are complementing the papers at #digipal . This is like being at the Digital Humanities conference :)
#digipal too! RT @jfwinters: Zimmer - the digital gives the 'illusion that incredible things are possible in a short space of time' #eebotcp
Schomaker: digital palaeographical analysis tools work – but human experts still better at verification. #digipal
MONK and GIWIS are teh awesome! I want to use these for Early Modern English state papers :) #digipal
Schomaker on handwriting identification and forensic studies too - fascinating stuff! Hmm, must check out GIWIS 2010 #digipal
.@pa_stokes "The question "what identifies a script?" is one you want to push under the table quickly" :) #digipal
Description of really interesting project by Jacob Thaisen at #digipal . At least if you find allographic variation fascinating! #geekery
I'm going! Anyone else? RT @Stewart_Brookes: DigiPal Symposium on Monday: #digipal
