Armenian AutoEpiDoc: Automated Extraction and Encoding of Armenian Inscriptions into EpiDoc TEI/XML
Armenian epigraphy is extensively documented in printed scholarly corpora, yet lacks machine-readable editions that support interoperability or computational analysis. In this paper, we present Armenian AutoEpiDoc, a system that automatically converts expert-verified Armenian inscription records into EpiDoc-compliant TEI/XML files. Operating on curated and domain-validated data, AutoEpiDoc maps Armenian-specific metadata to EpiDoc structures through rule-based templates and schema-aware validation. The workflow significantly reduces manual encoding effort and provides a scalable path toward producing digital editions and integrating Armenian inscriptions into international epigraphic infrastructures.
