## Conclusion
|
75 |
-
The Swedish National Archives HTR pipeline offers a powerful solution for automatic handwritten text recognition in running-text documents from the 16th to the 19th century. It leverages instance segmentation models for text region and line extraction, combined with a state-of-the-art SATRN model for accurate recognition. While the pipeline demonstrates high accuracy, speed, and flexibility, users should be aware of its limitations and consider the ethical implications of using historical data. Regular updates and user feedback are crucial for maintaining and improving the pipeline's performance.
