# What are we doing ?

* At ALMAnaCH research team, Inria Paris, DH engineers and researchers mainly work with **text-related objects** (digitized documents, PDFs or raw texts) and put the emphasis on **programming, data creation**, and **machine learning engineering**. We also focus on processing textual data with NLP solutions.

<figure><img src="image_3.png" /></figure>

* Open source, open data, open science

<figure><img src="image_4.png" /></figure>

<figure><img src="image_5.png" /></figure>

* We also aim at building software and machine learning solutions that can easily be used by institutional partners and the DH community in general.

# What are we doing ?

The EHRI consortium has supported the development and publication of six Holocaust-related online editions.

* **Early Holocaust Testimonies Edition:** Testimonies kept in the Wiener Holocaust Library, London, Yad Vashem, Jerusalem, the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw, the Hungarian Jewish Archives in Budapest, and the Jewish Museum in Prague. Originals are in Czech, German, Hungarian, Polish, Dutch, and Yiddish.

* **Documentation Campaign Edition:** Holocaust survivor testimonies held by the Jewish Museum in Prague and by Yad Vashem, Jerusalem.

* **Diplomatic Reports Edition:** Reports from the diplomatic staff of Denmark, Italy, Japan, Hungary, Slovakia, and the United States.

* **Von Wien ins Nirgendwo - Die Nisko-Deportationen 1939 Edition:** Documents on the history of the Viennese Jewish deportees to Nisko, held in various institutions.

* **Begrenzte Flucht Edition & Uzavřít Hranice Edition:** Documents kept in Czech, Austrian and other archives and related to the crisis year 1938 at the Czechoslovakia border and Austrian refugees.

→ **So a multilingual and multi-domains setting.**

# Semi-automatic encoding with layout analysis

- Document Layout Analysis (DLA): a task that aims at detecting the layout components and hierarchy of a document.

- SOTA DLA systems are based on two approaches: **visual features** (YOLOv8), and a combination of **textual and visual features** (LayoutLM).

nicht hätte tagen sollen, und seelisch bin ich sich 3 Monate hopp. Denke
deswegen nicht schlecht von mir. Schau liebste Tante! Der Bruder war
doch auch vorzugsweise 13 Wochen hopp, wo ich bis now ist Du doch
und dessen war er auch nicht schlecht. Ich dabeie Dir viel tausendmal
für die schonen Söhnen, wenn ich sie nicht hätte, so miteie ich immer in
meinen Kield herumgeben. Sie passen mir sehr gut, wie die Shuhe sind mir

Die rechtfertigten hat, dass ich im Spitzel bin, ich habe nicht geschlossen, Dir
die Fahrlaft zu schreiben. Bitte schreiben der Tante Porta nichts davon.
Wenn ich auch hier bin, so verage ich, ich wüsste nicht, dass
die ich troten nicht und ich hoffe, dass
die ich in kurz Zeit bei meinen geliebten Bäumen sein würde. Lenz ist ein
gutes Kind, wenn ich sie nicht hätte, so wuro ich ganz verklarben. Ich
soll dir nur erzählen, dass ich in der Kille

woch zu mir, tausend Grüsse und Klasse.

Liebste Tante,

Habe Deinen Brief erhalten. Das Packet habe ich noch nicht, aber

Diese Mal war es nicht möglich, einen Brief von Tante Martha bis zu le-
gen. Der "Kalkel" hat es gut aufgesagt. Sie darf weder schreiben noch
Briefe empfangen. Liebe Tante! Du schreibst, wir sollen Göttervertrumen
haben. Ich glaube nicht an Gott. Faram hat mir er uns so geheimentlich Ich kann
Dir nicht schillern, was wir mitgemacht haben. Mir hat Gott meine lieben

Wien, April 1939

Liebe Tanteinste,

Habe Deinen Brief erhalten. Das Packet habe ich noch nicht, aber
das duert immer länger. Ich werde Dir gleich schreiben, wenn es kant.
Diese Mal war es nicht möglich, einen Brief von Tante Martha bis zu le-
gem. Der "Kalkel" hat es gut aufgesagt. Sie darf weder schreiben noch
Briefe empfangen. Liebe Tanteinste, Du schreiben, wir sollen Göttervertrauen
haben. Ich glaube nicht an Gott, Farum hat es er und es so geograf't. Ich kann
Dir nicht schliessen, was wir mitgemacht haben. Mir hat Gott meine lieben

A lot of airplanes started to fly over our town after the 1st of September 1939.

The next day we saw refugees from Ostrołka and Przasnysz. They reported that cannons were shooting there already. The refugees came by car, bus and horse and wagon; all of them were Jews.

On Saturday evening, after the evening prayers, airplanes dropped bombs for the first time. They fell in the river Bug.

* Documentation Campaign in Prague

* Testimonies Collection in the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw

* The Koniuchowsky Testimony Collection (Yad Vashem)

* The Central Historical Commission of the Central Committee of Liberated Jews in the US Zone in Munich – Testimonies Collected in DP Camps (Yad Vashem)

## History of archival collections of Early Holocaust Testimonies

### The Ball-Kaduri Testimony Collection (Yad Vashem)

Dr. Kurt Ball-Kaduri was born in Berlin in 1891. A lawyer and legal adviser to the Prussian government, he was also active in Jewish affairs. He made Aliyah to Eretz Israel in December 1938.

Ball-Kaduri, who was active in collecting material and writing about German Jewry, became aware that much material that reached the archives regarding Jewish life in Germany from 1933 to 1945 was incomplete and that there were large information gaps.

He decided to gather testimonies of people involved in Jewish life and the activities of Jewish organizations. In 1943, Ball-Kaduri began to collect the information and actually established his collection. He contacted various people in Eretz Israel whom he knew, asking them to write their recollections and interviewing some of them himself. In 1955 he handed the collection over to Yad Vashem while continuing to collect related documentation for Yad Vashem until 1960.

The collection includes testimonies of Jewish leaders in various areas of Jewish life in Germany. Although it includes significant documentation regarding the fate of individual victims of the Holocaust, the main emphasis of the Record Group is on the different Jewish organizations.

There are over 300 files in the record group. Most of the collection is written in German and about half of the testimonies have been translated into Hebrew.

### Documentation Campaign in Prague

The Jewish Museum in Prague, whose history is intrinsically intertwined with the persecution of Bohemian and Moravian Jews, has been collecting archival sources relating to the persecution and genocide of Jews in the Czech lands since the end of WWII. It holds various types of materials, including interviews with and witness accounts of Shoah survivors.

The testimonies presented within the EHRI online edition were gathered mainly in the framework of the so-called "documentation campaign" (Dokumentační akce). This was one of the earliest postwar projects to document the events of the Shoah, collecting evidence, documents, and witness testimonies. The founder and a driving force behind the campaign was Zeev Scheck, a prewar Zionist and survivor of Theresienstadt and Auschwitz, who emigrated Palestine in 1946 to. He later worked as an Israeli diplomat and was an initiator of the Association of Theresienstadt Prisoners which built the Beit Theresienstadt archive and museum.

Taking inspiration from his wartime clandestine documentation in Theresienstadt and from a visit to Budapest after liberation, Scheck and a few of his former fellow prisoners initiated a Czechoslovak Jewish documentation effort. Scheck was thereby continuing the clandestine collection of documents in the Theresienstadt ghetto in which he and a group of Zionist youth activists had been involved. After liberation, Scheck's partner and future wife transferred his Theresienstadt collection to Prague, later moving it to Palestine. Today it forms the basis of the Theresienstadt documentation in the Yad Vashem Archives.
