Research Transcriber US-NJ-Princeton Job ID: 2022-15126 Type: Part-Time # of Openings: 1 Category: Research and Laboratory Princeton University Overview The Handwritten Text Recognition project at the Princeton Geniza Lab aims to train a computer model to recognize and automatically transcribe texts from the Cairo Geniza, a cache of Hebrew-script texts discovered in a medieval Egyptian synagogue. Researchers are responsible for improving the algorithm that recognizes Hebrew script by reviewing the computer’s auto-detection of the location of Hebrew script and ensuring that all areas on a page that contain Hebrew are correctly identified and delineated. This includes identifying the direction of text, marking each line of text from beginning to end, and correctly classifying any interlinear corrections. Researchers then examine the Hebrew-script text on the fragment, comparing it visually to an automatically uploaded transcription to ensure that the algorithm...
