It develops DH collaboration and supports research projects, teaching activities and infrastructure projects across the faculties.

Digital text analysis
The Ghent Centre for Digital Humanities is committed to advancing the study of textual sources through the use of digital tools. We offer guidance on a wide range of technologies, including Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Handwritten Text Recognition (HTR), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and the processing of tabular and layout data.
