Computational Humanities - bridging the gap between Computer Science and Digital Humanities (Dagstuhl Seminar 14301)

Authors: Chris Biemann, Gregory R. Crane, Christiane D. Fellbaum, and Alexander Mehler

Abstract

Research in the field of Digital Humanities, also known as Humanities Computing, has seen a steady increase over the past years. Situated at the intersection of computing science and the humanities, present efforts focus on making resources such as texts, images, musical pieces and other semiotic artifacts digitally available, searchable and analysable. To this end, computational tools enabling textual search, visual analytics, data mining, statistics and natural language processing are harnessed to support the humanities researcher. The processing of large data sets with appropriate software opens up novel and fruitful approaches to questions in the traditional humanities. This report summarizes the Dagstuhl seminar 14301 on "Computational Humanities - bridging the gap between Computer Science and Digital Humanities".
