Computational Tools in the History of Ideas [canceled]. Betti, A. July, 2018. Mathematics and its Philosophy between the 18th and the 19th Century, Amsterdam, 13-14 Juy 2018
Paper abstract bibtex In this talk I introduce a number of computational techniques and tools that can be fruitfully applied to the history of philosophy, and challenges that arise from using them. The talk is based on recent hands-on experience with these techniques and tools within the _Concepts in Motion_ group (conceptsinmotion.org). I will touch upon tools and techniques for (i) OCR and corpus building, (ii) corpus preprocessing, (iii) text-mining using (largely bottom-up) both information retrieval, word embeddings and deep NLP, (iv) (top down) conceptual modelling and (v) visualisation. Challenges include evaluation and reliability of the computational approach.
