This article introduces an end-to-end pipeline to index a collection of 4,294 digitized French historical postcards spanning the years 1899 to 1920. These postcards are visually rich documents with both pictures and texts. We propose to classify these postcards according to their visual content and following their topics. Therefore, the postcards are annotated with keywords defined from the transcription of the printed text set on them. The keyword annotation is then automatically extended to postcards without text description.

摘要

This article introduces an end-to-end pipeline to index a collection of 4,294 digitized French historical postcards spanning the years 1899 to 1920. These postcards are visually rich documents with both pictures and texts. We propose to classify these postcards according to their visual content and following their topics. Therefore, the postcards are annotated with keywords defined from the transcription of the printed text set on them. The keyword annotation is then automatically extended to postcards without text description.
