Join this recently developed Carpentries workshop for a practical Introduction to Text Analysis, designed for those with Python experience (how to create functions, for loops, conditional logic, use the pandas library, etc.). Check out ourIntro to PythonɴǰDZ, October 31 & November 1, if you need an introduction. The workshop covers Natural Language Processing (NLP) basics, API usage, data preparation, document/word embeddings, topic modeling, Word2Vec, Transformer models using Hugging Face, and ethical considerations. Students and researchers working in the digital humanities are especially encouraged to attend! View the for an overview of the topics we will cover. Hosted online by the UW-Madison Data Science Center.

This is apilot workshop, testing out a lesson that is still under development. The lesson authors would appreciate any feedback you can give them about the lesson content and suggestions for how it could be further improved.

Join us for a discussion with the 2023 DH Fellows Teaching cohort, and how they grappled with new tools for building digital archives, analyzing poetry, and using games to understand storytelling. And how AI intervened to help us think about voice and expression.

Presented by David Witzling, 51 Peck School of the Arts.

In the present moment, “truth” is becoming an increasingly contested term. Between fake news, UFO disclosure, and popular deep fakes, generative AI will play an increasingly prominent role in complicating perceptions of “reality.” The role of AI systems in our unfolding ontological crisis will fall along multiple lines: deception as an implicit and explicit design goal for AI systems; the autonomous nature of AI bots in an increasingly online world; the increasingly deregulated corporate interests funding the development of AI systems; and the protected “speech” status of public-facing corporate information systems. Curbing the development of AI systems might sound like an anti-progress position, but it is also one firmly grounded in the economics of diminishing returns, and a humanistic conception of “government for the people.”

Join us for this three-day introduction to text analysis methods, developed for humanities researchers. This is a pilot workshop – in addition to sharing skills, we are looking for feedback on the lessons and exercises presented. The workshop will include introductions to pre-processing for text analysis, word embeddings, word2vec, transformers, and a discussion of ethical and research commitments when using these tools. Please note – some basic experience with Python is highly recommended as a prerequisite to this workshop.
