Roč. 16, č. 1 (2025), s. 87-108. Ostrava : Ostravská univerzita v Ostravě, 2025The study deals with the problem of automatic transcription of historical handwritten documents. In the first part, the author draws attention to the Transkribus tool, which is one of the platforms that can be used for the purpose of automatic transcription of manuscripts. In the second part, the author presents his personal experience of working with this tool. Using the example of working with a manuscript, the Banská Bystrica town’s reambulatory protocol from 1820, he presents the steps of the work, starting with the import of the document, its segmentation, the training of the custom models, up to the automatic transcription and export of the transcribed document. The model trained on the transcription of the reambulatory protocol, together with the Slovak Supermodel trained on several manuscripts, is finally applied by the author to the transcription of another manuscript version of the same protocol. Finally, the author presents the results of the above-mentioned experiments and reflects on the effectiveness of the automatic transcription tool in the work of a historian.skCC BY-NC Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0.
