Recovery of old dialectal materials
Recovery of old dialectal materials
Within the collaboration with „Iorgu Iordan - Al. Rosetti” Institute of Linguistics of the Romanian Academy, an information system was developed for recovering dialectal materials. By using image processing methods, linguistic plates initially drawn on transparent paper—no longer publishable using modern printing methods—were digitally restored. The system was used for the publication, in 2021, of volume VI of the Romanian Linguistic Atlas by Regions – Muntenia and Dobrogea. (2020 )
