In the CLARIAH funded project ‘LinkSyr: Linking Syriac Data’, the Eep Talstra Centre for Bible and Computer (ETCBC) has developed various tools for processing Syriac texts, from establishing the text by OCR, through morphological parsing to identify lexemes, up to content analysis through topic modelling techniques and Linked Data. The project has extended its scope to included geographical and liturgical data in the Pelagios Resource Development project Linking Syriac Geographic Data and the DANS-funded project Linking Syriac Liturgies.
DANS is involved in the CLARIAH research pilot LinkSyr, where Syriac texts, people and places are being linked up.
