Can we use @Transkribus neural networks not to transcribe, but to identify the scribe? Can we apply this technique to detect Lope's handwriting among hundreds of other hands?
That is what @s_boadas and I set out to find out.

Op deze dag in 1585 werd Hendrick Avercamp geboren. Hij is vermaard om zijn winterlandschappen waarop de ijspret met veel details van het doek af spat. Het was geen toeval dat hij veel schaatstaferelen schilderde, want Europa had destijds te maken met de kleine ijstijd
Het is de Week van de Nederlandse Taal bij Transkribus 🇳🇱
