Nestroy Corpus Analysis (NestroyCA): NLP for 19th century Austrian Drama

We present the design and implementation of an NLP pipeline for historical Austrian German (Nestroy's comedies, 1827-1862) including transcriptions of dialectal data. Lacking suitable training data, we created a meta-model that compares the predictions of existing models trained on Modern Standard Germany-German corpora, and calculates a compromise between them.
