dc.description.abstract
We present a visualization system designed to support typographic forensics in the study of Kokatsuji, the short-lived tradition of Japanese movable wooden type printing. Building on recent advances in machine learning for block identification, our system provides expert users with an interactive tool for exploring, validating hypothesis, and integrating expert knowledge into model-generated results about the production process of early printed books. The system is structured around an ontology of four conceptual objects (spreads, segments, blocks, and characters) each corresponding to a dedicated view in the system. These coordinated views enable scholars to navigate between material evidence and computational abstractions, supporting close, near-by, and distant reading practices. Preliminary results from expert use of the system demonstrate its ability to reveal errors in segmentation, inconsistencies in clustering, and previously inaccessible patterns of block reuse.
