Kuzushiji, a form of cursive writing that is popularized in pre-modern Japan prior to the 19th century. Most historical documents that exist today are written in this form of writing. Therefore, I wish to train a model that could transcribe ancient Kuzushiji scripts into modern characters for researchers.

Machine Learning - Ancient Kuzushiji Text Recognition

Kuzushiji, a ancient form of cursive writing that is used for centuries prior to 19th century Japan. Majority of historical documents that exist in the archives of Japan are written in this form of writing. Therefore, it would be great to have a model that could transcribe ancient Kuzushiji scripts into modern characters for researchers to understand what is recorded.

[Background]

What was the weather like 500 years ago? What happened when Mt. Fuji erupted? What subjects did the schools teach back then?
