Knowing what you don't know - on gaps, quality issues and other challenges in DH use cases
Working with historical data is not for the faint of heart: data can be incomplete, warped through digitisation artefacts, or difficult to understand as language and society have changed. However, it also provides a window on the past that can help us understand today's society better. In this talk, I will give examples of DH use cases that take on gaps in data, quality issues and other challenges head-first to make computational methods better suited to them.
Panel
The SemDH 2024 conference aims to bridge the gap between
technology solutions and the needs of the humanities by
fostering collaboration across the Semantic Web, Cultural
Heritage, and Digital Humanities communities.
This panel will provide a platform for sharing and
discussing challenges, showcasing research findings, and
gaining immediate feedback from diverse and
interdisciplinary viewpoints.
Each panelist brings a unique
perspective and wealth of experience, ensuring a
comprehensive exploration of the intersection between
technology and humanities.
