Wow, that is a trip. Amazing to see my father's family all laid out like this https://1950census.archives.gov/search/?county=Nassau&name=werner%20mellen&page=1&state=NY https://1950census.archives.gov/search/?county=Nassau&name=w.... I had no idea the census data was so well archived.
The machine learning is truly impressive, because some of the writing is hardly legible.
- clsec 5y agoIt took me a while to find my family because my name is obscure, which you would think would be the opposite. Because it's obscure the census takers had a hard time getting the spelling right and would cross it out and rewrite it. Which, in turn, seems like it made it much harder for the ML to figure out.
