Anotace

In 2025/26 this course will be taught as AMCAA10127 (Základy digital humanities), with additional block lectures and additional assignments.

The course will introduce the methodological foundations of digital humanities. In addition to general principles for selecting, processing, storing, and long-term preservation of data, including field-standard
practices, the course content will largely depend on the specific needs of the students in a given semester. It aims to assist students in working on their own projects, such as final assignments.

Examples of possible topics include: methods for processing textual, image (including HTR/OCR), spatial, geographical, and other data; basic natural language processing (NLP) methods; data mining; data storage and querying in database systems; issues related to big data; training and working with machine learning models; corpus and distant reading analyses; and data presentation and visualization.

The course will be highly practical and project-oriented, in addition to providing a theoretical introduction. While the course may reference programming and statistics in some cases, it is not primarily focused on these areas.
