Copisti Digitali e Filologi Computazionali
Il volume è formato da dieci capitoli e mette insieme, elaborandoli ed aggiornandoli, materiali
delle due tesi di dottorato dell’autore, una in Filologia Classica (2005) e l’altra in Linguistica
Computazionale (2010), entrambe discusse presso l’Università di Trento.
Dopo una breve introduzione sul concetto di filologia collaborativa e cooperativa, i primi
capitoli sono dedicati all’ecdotica digitale, quindi all’acquisizione del testo di edizioni critiche
tramite OCR e al trattamento computazionale di apparati critici e repertori di congetture.
I capitoli seguenti sono dedicati ad aspetti salienti dell’ermeneutica digitale, come l’analisi
sintattica tramite la creazione di treebanks e l’analisi lessico-semantica tramite la creazione di
wordnets e l’esplorazione di word spaces con metodi statistici.
Chiudono il volume un capitolo di discussione relativa a punti critici del testo usato come
caso di studio (I Persiani di Eschilo) e un capitolo di conclusioni e prospettive di ricerca

EpiSearch. Identifying Ancient Inscriptions in Epigraphic Manuscripts
Epigraphic documents are an essential source of evidence for our knowledge of the ancient world. Nonetheless, a significant number of inscriptions have not been preserved in their material form. In fact, their texts can only be recovered thanks to handwritten materials and, in particular, the so-called epigraphic manuscripts. EpiSearch is a pilot project that explores the application of digital technologies deployed to retrieve the epigraphic evidence found in these sources. The application of Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR) to epigraphic manuscripts is a challenging task, given the nature and graphic layout of these documents. Yet, our research shows that, even with some limits, HTR technologies can be used successfully

A Fast and Continuous CT scanner for the optimization of logs in a sawmill
CT Log is a CT scanner used in an industrial process at very high speed in order to optimize the production of wood boards and other wood products. The scanner can reach 160 m/min, the typical speed at which wood logs are sawn in the sawmills. After the logs pass though the scanner, the images are reconstructed and processed in order to allow the automatic optimization of the cutting pattern according to the constraints set by wood defects and the value of the different products.
Building a a buffer between the scanner and the sawing line is expensive and often not possible because of constraints on the plant layout The time available for the entire processing is therefore very short, because it must be completed before the log reaches the breakdown equipment. In this paper, we present the structure of the scanner and the way we implemented the different stages of processing in order maximize the speed of the elaboration

Commerce Numérique: traffic signals for crossroads between cultures.
Commerce is a French literary journal - founded by Princess Margherita Caetani - which relied on the collaboration of three prestigious writers: Paul Valéry, Léon-Paul Fargue, and Valéry Larbaud. The journal is composed of twenty-nine volumes published between 1924 and 1932. Each volume includes different literary material like poems and novels, written by both well- known and unknown writers, who also translated important authors like Joyce, T.S. Eliot, Pirandello, Ungaretti, Saint-John Perse, Rilke, and Hofmannsthal.
Considering the historical, literary, and cultural importance of the journal Commerce, our project “Commerce numérique” aims to digitize and to make the journal contents freely available online to both the general public and the research community.
This article describes the way in which the journal was encoded. Particular importance is also given to the encoding of poems present in Commerce. Some poems are in the original language and are accompanied by their French translation, other poems are in the French-translated form without the original text. In order to fully and accurately express the phenomena and their structures, we adopted some aspects of the TEI framework that will be explained in detail.
The French translation of a Moroccan Arabic poem from the 13th century is also considered. The original Arabic poem is interesting because it presents aspects of both the Moroccan dialect and the oral text. The study and the encoding of the Arabic poem in parallel to its translation highlight some important structural differences between Arabic poetry and Western poetry
Learning Greek and Latin Through Digital Annotation: The EuporiaEDU System
Gloria Mugelli, Giulia Re, Andrea Taddei & Federico Boschetti describe the 'EphoriaEDU' system, a resource for digital annotation of ancient texts developed by the Lab. of Anthropology of Ancient Greece (LAMA), the CoPhiLab at the ILC-CNR in Pisa and the Venice Digital and Public Humanities Department. The system allows to structure textual information by connecting keywords and creating networks of concepts such as ritual actions in Greek Tragedy. It is applicable to all kinds of linguistic or cultural observations, allowing a wide range of collaboration between teachers and students from high school to university
TeiCoPhiLib: A Library of Components for the Domain of Collaborative Philology
In this article we illustrate a work in progress related to the design of a library of software components devoted to editing, processing, and visualizing TEI-annotated documents in the domain of philological studies, in particular in the subdomain of collaborative philology, which concerns the social activity of scholars focused on shared philological tasks. We discuss the technologies related to XML markup languages and the processing of marked-up documents. We describe the method used to design and implement the TeiCoPhiLib, outlining the design patterns as well as discussing general benefits of the overall architecture. Finally, we present case studies in which some components of our library currently implemented in Java have been used
“Tea for two”: the Archive of the Italian Latinity of the Middle Ages Meets the CLARIN Infrastructure
This paper aims at showing how integrating the Archive of the Italian Latinity of the Middle Ages(ALIM) into the ILC4CLARIN repository can provide mutual benefits. Making ALIM availableto a large community of scholars and researchers, on the one side, represents the first step to reduce the lack of resources for Medieval Latin in CLARIN and, on the other side, constitutesan unprecedented contribution to not only linguistic investigations, but also to the studies ofthe culture and science at the basis of the Western European society. The paper describes theadopted approach aiming to keep intact the structure of the archive and its metadata, which areboth accurately mirrored into the ILC4CLARIN repository in order to maintain existing accesspractices of the users. This structure can be found in exactly the same state within the CLARIN VLO. Finally, the paper illustrates the advantages of experimenting with some ALIM data, once introduced within the CLARIN Language Resource Switchboard service: first results are shown from the analysis of some texts with the UDPipe tool suite and the distant reading tool Voyant
