SUMMARY:Machine Learning for the Study of Literary and Historical Corpora
DESCRIPTION:Depending on participant interest\, this workshop will discuss either (1) principal component analysis or (2) word embeddings as a technique for exploring large digitized corpora\, with particular emphasis on applications to literary and historical study. The workshop will be conducted using Jupyter notebooks in Python. \nNo prior experience with Python is assumed\, but elementary knowledge of Python will be helpful. Participants will learn what these techniques are\, some of the assumptions these techniques make\, and how they can immediately apply these techniques to their own set of literary or historical texts. Larger implications of using these techniques for humanist study will also be discussed. \nSkill Level\nBeginner to Intermediate \nPrerequisites\nNone \nEquipment Requirements\nLaptops required\, participants will access jupyter notebooks via their web browser (no install required)

SUMMARY:Machine Learning: A Primer
DESCRIPTION:In recent years we have seen words related to recent developments in computer science and technology\, like machine learning\, artificial intelligence or neural networks\, be used increasingly in diverse fields of research and of the society in general. This workshop will survey basic concepts of machine learning. No specific background is expected. The goal is to provide some vocabulary with which one can get a sense of what these computational methods are about. In addition\, we will also survey existing machine learning-related resources that one can explore to learn further; the resources will address technical understanding as well as critical thinking about the many implications of the technology. \nSkill Level\nBeginner \nPrerequisites\nNone \nEquipment Requirements\nNone

SUMMARY:Making Maps into Webmaps with Leaflet.js
DESCRIPTION:The workshop will introduce participants to one method of turning a map into a Web Map. The primary difference between a static map and a web map (in addition to the fact that one is on the web) is interactivity. We expect webmaps to respond to users by showing popups\, highlighting features\, or by being able to change layers and information. In this workshop\, participants will be introduced to the basics of turning a map into a webmap.\nWe will be using the Javascript Library\, Leaftlet to turn a pre-made static map with multiple layers of information into an interactive map that can be displayed within a webpage.\nThis workshop will be highly scaffolded so that knowledge of HTML\, CSS\, and Javascript is not necessary\, though familiarity with these languages will be helpful to get the most out of making web maps in this way. However\, this workshop will provide a gentle introduction to the power of these languages and one tangible application.\nBy the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to:\n* Embed a static map into a web page\n* Select tiles for the base map based on their needs\n* Make custom markers for data points\n* Add interactivity to a map by including tool tips\nParticipants will get the most out of this workshop by taking ‘Making Maps with QGIS’\, but no GIS knowledge is assumed. \nSkill Level\nBeginner \nPrerequisites\nNone. Familiarity with GIS\, HTML\, CSS\, and Javascript is beneficial. \nEquipment Requirements\nLaptop

SUMMARY:Sustaining and Growing your DH Projects
DESCRIPTION:What does it take for a DH project to go from concept to community treasure? While some DH projects are purely experimental\, many project leaders are eager to see their work grow and develop over time and become useful to a significant community of scholars and students. \nThis workshop will introduce digital project leaders to the basics of dynamic sustainability\, the notion that for a project to continue to grow and develop over time\, its leaders must create and encourage an ongoing cycle of support. Using examples of success stories from the field\, the session will offer an outline of some practical steps you can take to develop a reliable sustainability model\, exploring the role of audience\, the host institution\, and the potential for a range of revenue sources. Participants at all stages of work\, from developing proposals to running established projects\, are encouraged to attend. \nWorkshop leader Nancy Maron is author of Sustaining the Digital Humanities\, Guide to the Best Revenue Models and Funding Sources for your Digital Resources\, and several other reports and case studies concerning strategies for DH support. Prior to founding BlueSky to BluePrint\, she led the Sustainability and Scholarly Communications team at Ithaka S+R. She currently serves as President of the Board of the Yonkers Public Library. \nSkill Level\nBeginner \nPrerequisites\nNone \nEquipment Requirements\nNone \n
