| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An efficient and precise method of identifying individual type of the early printed books was developed, which is indispensable in making transcription of early printed books, since ordinary OCR software cannot deal with them. The proposed method is expected to enable to make transcription data of the early printed books on large scale.
The proposed method was applied to the digital images of the first printed book in Europe, the Gutenberg Bible. Cluster analysis of the type images were conducted in order to shed some light objectively on the early metods of making types. Furthremore, Based on the result of the type image recognition, transcription data was also made, and then described in XML format.
