DARIAH conducts face-to-face training measures as well. Here we'll try to capture some of those events for the benefit of those who couldn't attend them.
The foundational skills in Distant Viewing and computer vision are increasingly relevant in the Digital Humanities, yet educational resources are often aimed at those with a background in computer science and statistics. For example, machine learning and digital image processing are fundamental to the Computational Humanities, but many scholars in the Digital Humanities lack accessible training in these areas.
The goal of this project was to create a focused course enabling students to acquire essential skills in computer vision, specifically tailored for Digital Humanists. Upon completing this course, students will possess a foundational understanding of digital image representation, computer vision methodologies, and machine learning techniques, all contextualized within a Digital Humanities framework.
This class is part of the project "Computer Vision for Digital Humanists" and licensed Creative Commons BY NC SA. This project (2023) was funded by CLARIAH-AT with the support of BMBWF. It was made possible by major contributions from the ERC DiDip project (From Digital to Distant Diplomatics). The video was produced by Moving Stills.
The goal of the project "Computer Vision for Digital Humanists" was the creation of educational self-learning resources on Computer Vision specifically for Digital Humanities, consisting of slide decks, Jupyter Notebooks with practical exercises in Python as well as teaching videos ( see the YouTube playlist. They cover a range of topics from the basics of computer vision and machine learning to training custom deep learning models for one's own historical data.
The conference aimed to examine the possibilities of connecting information sciences and computer science with performing arts, focusing on three thematic blocks: archiving, artistic practices and scholarly research. The international scientific and professional conference is part of the project of the same name by the DARIAH-EU Working Group Theatralia, which is dedicated to the research of digital technology in the performing arts and the digitization of theatralia, financed from DARIAH-EU funds.
This event, organised in the framework of the TRIPLE project, provided insights into the use of “topical vocabularies” and their use in metadata curation and quality assessment in the Social Sciences and Humanities (in the EOSC context). The sessions introduces learners to have a better understanding of the interoperability challenges faced within/by the SSH branch of the EOSC, and be familiar with some initiatives related to metadata curation and enrichment in the SSH.
This workshop, focussing on "Spatial data medieval to modern", is the first of a series of workshops from the NOS-HS project "Linking, Building, and Sustaining Humanities Digital Spatial Infrastructures for Research in the Nordic Countries". The main aims of this workshop were to define key concepts (spatial infrastructures, Linked Open Data, metadata, ontology), outline major challenges in the field, and to provide an opportunity to share experiences of addressing the issues in individual and national projects across the Nordic countries.
This event, organised and provided by the CLS INFRA project, offers an introductory course to textual data annotation. The workshop introduces learners to how to edit, annotate, and query a text corpus without a single line of code, how to structure texts with the XML-TEI, and how to run an NLP tool to add linguistic information.
Learn how community-building projects can engage local stakeholders, pull insights from diverse perspectives, and influence urban redevelopment authorities.
Hear state-of-the-art theories and approaches to sustainable heritage, with reflections from experienced architects, academics, and urban thinkers. Identify critical issues of urban gentrification, place-making, and the pressures faced by historic urban neighbourhoods in Southern Europe.
See state-of-the-art technologies deployed for rapid 3D reconstruction, documentation, and urban co-design with non-experts. We specifically explore augmented reality as a possible solution to scalable public outreach.
In December 2019, the University of Neuchâtel hosted a second Swiss DARIAH workshop. For this event, young scholars were invited to present their research in depth and to discuss together methodological, data management and research workflow issues.
Hosted by King’s Digital Lab (KDL) at King’s College London, the workshop introduced participants to best practices in project management, the Agile Dynamic System Development Methods (DSDM) as well as various theoretical and practical approaches to digital cultural heritage.
The DESIR Winter School provided a unique opportunity to learn about how to maximize the potential of scholarly resources and to take practical steps in opening up research in ethically and legally responsible ways.
DARIAH Winter School 2016 explored the evolution of publication issues in social sciences and humanities in a context of Open Access, with the underlying goal of promoting open science through the question of open data citation.
