Letter Lemmatization: One-to-one and Banded RNNs for Reversing Character-Set Simplification and Abbreviation in Medieval Text

Medieval document transcribers have very different practices; on top of that, heterogeneous digitization policies have resulted in corpora where the character-set must be viewed as fluid. In this paper we address the problem of changing between character-sets in a flexible manner. We focus on one-to-one character mappings and train characterlevel one-to-one RNNs to undo them with self-supervision; recovering half the CER even with 20 text lines. We analyse the use of these one-to-one networks…
