Hackathon DKZ.2RxQUADRIGA

On May 8th, the Data Literacy Centers DKZ.2R and QUADRIGA are teaming up for a hackathon on the topic of text-corrections using LLM’s.

This will be an internal event for members of the Data Literacy Centers DKZ.2R and QUADRIGA.

The Data Literacy Center QUADRIGA is primarily focused on creating high-quality educational resources for the digital humanities. In our hackathon we will work on a use casedealing with historical texts from the time of the spanish flu. Channelling our resources and competencies will not only help us to strengthen the connections between our two Data Literacy Centers but will also provide us with a use case on how to use LLMs for the post-correction of automatically recognized historical texts which can be used for training purposes such as Data Challenges and Workshops in a variety of different domains.
