Though not on Homer (yet), Graziosi et al. (TAPA 2023 ) use the deep learning model BERT to evaluate likelihoods of variants and emendations (and have a great bit on contextualizing philology in this light at the beginning): https://muse.jhu.edu/article/901022.
Also Assael et al. (Nature 2022) on emending inscriptions with a deep neural net (aptly named "Ithaca") seems primed for application to epic fragments (Ehoie especially): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-04448-z.
