The D-WISE Tool Suite: Multi-Modal Machine-Learning-Powered Tools Supporting and Enhancing Digital Discourse Analysis (2023.acl-demo)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | The D-WISE Tool Suite addresses limitations of current DH tools due to the ever-increasing amount of heterogeneous, unstructured, and multi-modal data in which discourses of contemporary societies are encoded. |
| Approach: | They propose to use D-WISE Tool Suite to analyze heterogeneous, unstructured, and multi-modal data in the Digital Humanities (DH) |
| Outcome: | The proposed tool leverages state-of-the-art machine learning technologies from Natural Language Processing and Com-puter Vision to ensure its usability for modernDH research. |
