Guidelines for the Enhancement of the Corpus and the Verismo Vocabulary
VIVer is a digital lexicography project with historical-literary and historical-linguistic aims that can be considered a case study of a Digital Humanities project. This paper presents the IT choices made to promote the dissemination and enhancement of the results, analysing the issues and advantages for wider adoption, beyond the specific VIVer project, serving as a model and inspiration for future projects.

Towards a Manifesto for Cyber Humanities: Paradigms, Ethics, and Prospects
The accelerated evolution of digital infrastructures and algorithmic systems is reshaping how the humanities engage with knowledge and culture. Rooted in the traditions of Digital Humanities and Digital Humanism, the concept of "Cyber Humanities" proposes a critical reconfiguration of humanistic inquiry for the post-digital era. This Manifesto introduces a flexible framework that integrates ethical design, sustainable digital practices, and participatory knowledge systems grounded in human-cent…

At the Semantic Digital Humanities 2025 Workshop, Jose Maldonado-Rodríguez is presenting "Natural Language Querying for Humanities #KnowledgeGraphs A case study on the GOLEM KG". Main contribution is a bilingual dataset (English-Spanish) specifically designed to evaluate automatic text-to-SPARQL translation systems for GOLEM, a specialized humanities KG.
paper:

Listening to a digital history talk at #DH2025 I'm reminded that IMO 'labs' isn't a natural metaphor for 'working together' (but maybe the realities of hierarchies and politics do fit the DH/GLAM use?).
Is importing 'data culture' from the world of business the right move for digital history / humanities?

Mind the Language Gap in Digital Humanities: LLM-Aided Translation of SKOS Thesauri

Mind the Language Gap in Digital Humanities: LLM-Aided Translation of SKOS Thesauri
We introduce WOKIE, an open-source, modular, and ready-to-use pipeline for the automated translation of SKOS thesauri. This work addresses a critical need in the Digital Humanities (DH), where language diversity can limit access, reuse, and semantic interoperability of knowledge resources. WOKIE combines external translation services with targeted refinement using Large Language Models (LLMs), balancing translation quality, scalability, and cost. Designed to run on everyday hardware and be easi…

Exploring the Technical Knowledge Interaction of Global Digital Humanities: Three-decade Evidence from Bibliometric-based perspectives

Exploring the Technical Knowledge Interaction of Global Digital Humanities: Three-decade Evidence from Bibliometric-based perspectives
Digital Humanities (DH) is an interdisciplinary field that integrates computational methods with humanities scholarship to investigate innovative topics. Each academic discipline follows a unique developmental path shaped by the topics researchers investigate and the methods they employ. With the help of bibliometric analysis, most of previous studies have examined DH across multiple dimensions such as research hotspots, co-author networks, and institutional rankings. However, these studies hav…

Disclosing Generative AI Use in Digital Humanities Research

Disclosing Generative AI Use in Digital Humanities Research
This survey study investigates how digital humanists perceive and approach generative AI disclosure in research. The results indicate that while digital humanities scholars acknowledge the importance of disclosing GenAI use, the actual rate of disclosure in research practice remains low. Respondents differ in their views on which activities most require disclosure and on the most appropriate methods for doing so. Most also believe that safeguards for AI disclosure should be established through …

Excellent keynote in the #SemDH2025 workshop by Laura Hollink on Cultural Bias in Linked Open Data. Laura is addressing all bias related aspects in cultural heritage items itself, in the data representing it, the data schemata, vocabularies, and ontologies on which the data are based, as well as in the knowledge representation languages used to create the schemata.

Noted while reading: 'a data structure or a block of code are things that make implicit and subjective arguments about how to see the world. This is possibly the single most important basic insight that Digital Humanities as a field needs to impart, because it affects so much of the world around us' - excellent post by @…

"Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else", but how to do this with Linked Data? Eero Hyvönen is quoting Leonardo Da Vinci as an intro to his presentation "How to Create a Portal for Digital Humanities Research Using a Linked Open Data Cloud of Cultural Heritage Knowledge Graphs: Case SampoSampo"
paper:

Und, really: Ich fand's schon damals total langweilig, diese ganzen Big-Data- und Digital-Humanities-revolutinieren-die-Welt-Vorträge zu hören, jetzt halt das Ganze noch einmal mit KI drin (und die Argumente sind exakt die gleichen, was bedeutet, die Leute verstehen nicht richtig, worum's geht).

Metadata Enrichment of Long Text Documents using Large Language Models
In this project, we semantically enriched and enhanced the metadata of long text documents, theses and dissertations, retrieved from the HathiTrust Digital Library in English published from 1920 to 2020 through a combination of manual efforts and large language models. This dataset provides a valuable resource for advancing research in areas such as computational social science, digital humanities, and information science. Our paper shows that enriching metadata using LLMs is particularly benef…
