IDH: 2nd International Workshop on Intelligence in Digital Humanities

Introduction

Nowadays, Digital Humanities are a flourishing interdisciplinary domain that interconnects digital systems and technologies with humanistic scientific domains and environments, such as Archaeology, History, Archival Research, Literature, Theatre, Museum Studies etc. The impact of such a convergence is the design and development of many applications aiming at the representation and dissemination of cultural content, along with the digitalization of all the necessary data recording, management, and processing workflows. A challenge that arises in such a context, is the incorporation of intelligence in data intensive digital applications that may enhance data collecting, managing, storing, processing, filtering, and transferring and set new standards to the design of coherent knowledge management frameworks for cultural information.

The goal of this workshop is to gather the forms of intelligence that can be applied in the Digital Humanities. We cordially invite investigators to contribute original research papers that report novel systems, technologies, and new real-life applications, as well as survey papers that review the novel technologies and new trends in this area.
