For Later:
Create annotation plan for Ancestry and other data.
Hire under-grads, library, request Ancestry employees to do annotation.
Dr. Ringger to invite Dan Lopresti to come to BYU.
Decide to make a competition.
More clarity on directions and contributions, including specific projects, what tools to use (Ocropus?), how to leverage those tools, what data to work on, how to magnify our efforts by working together as a group, etc.
Plan for zoning, layout, language modeling, table interpretation and E/R classification earlier in the (Ocropus) pipeline.
Should we use Ocropus, train a character recognition model from Internet Archive data, hire an undergrad to do this plus output bounding boxes, etc.?
CHURP to NSF Proposal (sometime in June to August).
OCRopus update.
