What is interdisciplinarity? What are the advantages of conceptual design and use of data structures to represent knowledge in the humanities?
In order to represent knowledge, we need to model the objecs of interest at a conceptual level, organize them in a structured form, make these objects available.
In Digital Humanities, the domain expert (humanist) make sure that the exact meaning of the data is understood by the modeler (scientist), and the modeler ensures that the semantic representation correctly represents the domain knowledge. In this process, both the data representation (format) and the meaning of the data elements (semantics) must be as clear as possible.
The aim of the course is to discuss the principles and methodologies that allow to model research objects, which are the focus of the study of the humanist, through data structures that allow the analysis and creation of new knowledge in a semi-automated way.
