Creating Contextual Data in Textual and Visual Media with COMARKUS and IMMARKUS is the second of two talks given by Professor Hilde De Weerdt at Sun Yat-sen University on July 27.
Historians and humanities scholars more generally care deeply about context. For digital humanists the contextualization of data and digital operations and facilitating contextual interpretation of data and operations ought to be critical concerns in the design of services and platforms. In the design of two recently launched annotation platforms, COMARKUS and IMMARKUS, we have sought to offer a set of methods that allow researchers to model their sources, to contextualize entities and tagged content, and to thus create contextualized data. In this talk Professor De Weerdt will discuss how to develop data models for textual and visual sources and demonstrate how to work with custom models in COMARKUS and IMMARKUS.
