Two new notebooks about the papers presented at #CHR2022. One about finding unseen sailors [1] and another one about functional diversity as an alternative to lexical diversity [2]

How did times of uncertainty impact the way in which early modern people from the Low Countries were dealing with information?

During my research stay in Aarhus earlier this year, we tried to answer that question. Yesterday I presented the results at #CHR2022. Here's a short 🧵 :

RT @CompHumResearch
.@artjomshl and Mikhail Gronas show that measuring poem regularity using entropy can detect differences in metrical structure. This simple method can be used to classify poems and improve understanding of form recognition and prosodic annotation. #chr2022 https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-3290/short_paper5417.pdf

No images, but also looking forward to this paper by @melvinwevers, @folgertk, and Jelle van Lottum who use unseen species models to look for VOC sailors! #chr2022 #DH #Digitalhumanities

#CHR2022 starts today! Particularly looking forward to Session 2C Images and Scans (tomorrow) with exciting new work on

-the memorability of iconic images
-automatic identification and classification of portraits in historical photographs
-layout analysis of historical documents

#CHR2022 is happening TODAY! So hyped!!

What shall we do with the unseen sailors in the digitized archives of the Dutch East India Company (VOC)? In a new paper for #CHR2022, we apply an unseen species model to estimate how many records are missing

Here I was, thinking I had written an interesting contribution to #CHR2022 on the relationship between functional diversity in ecology and lexical diversity in language. But apparently, #chatgpt already knew all about it! 🙃

For those still appreciating human effort, here is the paper:

Also want to boost the #CHR2022 workshop proceedings as a great venue for #digitalhumanities #culturalanalytics #computationaliterarystudies. Thanks to the organizing team! https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-3290/

At #CHR2022 I will present this fun project we worked on earlier this year, during a stay at the Center for Humanities Computing in Aarhus.

I see people introducing themselves here, so let’s go:

I’m a PhD candidate in Dutch #History at Leiden University, writing a dissertation about the early modern #mediascape of chroniclers. I am a #digitalhumanities person (or more #computationalhumanities) and big fan of using computational methods in my research.

Also: as a co-chair of the upcoming #CHR2022 conference, I want to invite all interested minds to join us in Antwerp or virtually! https://2022.computational-humanities-research.org

The conference program with 29 accepted papers for #CHR2022 is online! https://2022.computational-humanities-research.org/programme/

I'm particularly looking forward to these four papers on the #CV and historical collections, modeling seafarers of the Dutch EIC, and a wonderful paper on authorship attribution by three brilliant students of ACDC in Antwerp.

#DH #Digitalhumanities

Very happy with the list of accepted papers for #CHR2022! This is the third edition already. It is really starting to become a tradition!

PDFs will follows soon. Check out the programme here:

As if you didn't have enough reasons yet to sign up for #CHR2022! Here are a few more! The conference program with a list of 29 accepted papers is NOW online! 🥳 https://2022.computational-humanities-research.org/programme/

This looks brilliant! Preprint on "Boosting word frequencies in authorship attribution" by Maciej Eder. Instead of relative frequencies, frequency normalisation against a background of semantically similar words was performed. Significant performance gains shown via fascinating heatmaps.
