SUMMARY:Digital and Spatial Study of Mosques: Xinjiang and Ningxia of China as Case Studies
DESCRIPTION:Different from conventional research methods\, spatial study is designed to apply GIS to study space\, time and mapping\, all of which are valuable in analyzing religious institutions\, sites and locations. Supported by multiple spatial\, digital and statistical methods\, this workshop selects eight cities and prefectures in China to examine the Islamic mosques based on accessible government data. Following the discussion of the methodologies and data\, the workshop focuses on the density of the Muslim population in the selected cities by calculating the average number of Muslims attending one mosque. In addition\, this workshop applies a spatial method\, the Location Analysis Method\, to scrutinize the availability of Islamic mosques by measuring the average distance between Chinese Muslim residential areas and their nearest mosque. Furthermore\, this workshop employs two different spatial methods\, the Two Step Floating Catchment Area and the Network Analysis Method\, to investigate the accessibility of mosques by means of estimating the average driving time required for Muslims to reach the nearest mosque. After comparing the average rankings of density\, availability and accessibility of mosques in the eight cities and prefectures\, this workshop proposes three criteria for determining the accessibility of mosques in Xinjiang and Ningxia\, two areas with heavy concentration of Muslim population in China. \nLEVEL: Beginner\nNOTES: N/A

SUMMARY:Analyzing Musical Performances with AMPACT
DESCRIPTION:Come and learn about the process of analyzing musical performances both in general and using the MATLAB-based Automatic Music Performance Analysis and Comparison Toolkit (AMPACT). The workshop will primarily focus on extracting performance data for audio recordings for which is a corresponding musical score is available\, but will also consider workarounds for audio without a corresponding score. Topics include: extracting low-level audio features\, summarizing low-level features at the musical note-\, beat-\, and measure-levels\, encoding performance data\, and making comparisons between performances.\n\nLEVEL: Beginner\nNOTES: Please bring a laptop running MATLAB or Octave

SUMMARY:Word Embeddings: Can Vectors Encode Meaning?
DESCRIPTION:Word embeddings\, or vector representations of words\, are commonly used in computer science to work with and analyze text. They are particularly useful as a powerful off-the-shelf tool when using open-source word embeddings previously generated by Google\, Facebook\, or other technology companies based on web crawls. We present the background and justifications for using vectors to represent meaning\, how word embeddings are created\, and applications of word embeddings in the social sciences and humanities. We’ll also touch on algorithmic bias\, how this is presented in word embeddings\, and what practitioners should be aware of. \nLEVEL: Beginner\nNOTES: none
