SUMMARY:Pandas: The Bare Basics
DESCRIPTION:Pandas is a Python data science library that allows for the manipulation and transformation of data\, and in particular numeric and time series data. In this workshop for people completely new to Pandas\, and possibly also to data science and/or programming\, we’ll take a relatively leisurely look at the Pandas library in conjunction with the Jupyter Notebook environment. We’ll learn about the two main data structures in Pandas\, the series and the dataframe\, reading from and writing to file\, indexing data (including boolean indexing)\, and describing data. If we have time\, we may even make a chart! This workshop is not recommended for those already experienced with Pandas\, we’ll be staying firmly in a beginner-friendly zone.

SUMMARY:The Web Is All You Need: A Data Analysis Stack for the 2020s
DESCRIPTION:For most of the last decade digital humanists doing data analysis have chosen between R and Python. But in the past few years\, the Javascript ecosystem has blossomed in a way that makes it a viable–and dare I say\, fun–way to collaboratively share\, explore\, and analyze data. Students don’t need to install anything to start a lesson\, collaborators can work directly with you in real time\, and anyone who can code can easily add interactive sliders\, controls to unlock datasets for others. \nThis workshop will provide an introduction to building and sharing data analysis for and of the web using observable notebooks. We’ll explore the basic platform\, and how it improves on python- or r-based notebooks you may have used; introduce the arquero and vega-lite packages that allow data manipulation and visualization; and talk about some strategies for making even the largest datasets explorable to anyone with a smartphone.

SUMMARY:Using R and Shiny for Visualizing Humanities Spatial Data
DESCRIPTION:This course will focus on using the programming language R as a way of visualizing spatial data. It will use four humanities datasets (pre-modern and modern\, from Europe and the Middle East) and the code required to carry out the visualization. We will discuss how participants might match different kinds of spatial datasets for different visualizations in Shiny. We will approach the visualization process in four steps: (1) discussing what the “story” of our data is\, and which aspects or conclusions from it we want to illuminate via visualization. (2) preprocessing our data into a dataset. Here it is especially important to determine the aspects of a given dataset\, i.e. if a two-faceted approach is satisfactory or if a more faceted approach (e.g. temporospatial) is required. (3) choosing the clearest and most efficient visual representation for our dataset. (4) selecting the most viable user interface to maximize accessibility and impact of our visualization. \nPrerequisites: basic familiarity with Leaflet & a programming language such as R \nNote: The course will be carried out using RStudio Cloud. You will be added to an account using the email address that you provide for the registration and you will need to activate it by responding to an email before the session. Participants can also observe the process without being added to RStudio.

SUMMARY:Network Analysis for the Humanities
DESCRIPTION:The world is full of networks and different topics of study in the humanities can make up networks: people\, texts\, ideas\, etc. This workshop will introduce basics of network analysis for the humanist. We will learn how to design a network in order to answer research questions in the humanities\, how to create and visualize networks with open software and how to interpret some of their most important features and metrics. Participants will practice the skills acquired on a corpus of networks of characters in movies and theatre plays. \nEquipment/Software Requirements: Recommended but not compulsory: installation of Gephi (https://gephi.org/) or Cytoscape (https://cytoscape.org/). \n

SUMMARY:Using IMDb as a Dataset for Digital Humanities
DESCRIPTION:Cindy Conaway\, an associate professor in Media Studies and Communication and Diane Shichtman an associate professor in Information Systems at SUNY Empire State College will discuss using the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) and its advantages and challenges as a dataset for Digital Humanities. In many ways IMDb is an excellent source for Digital Humanities projects and gives media studies scholars a new way to use Digital Humanities. The organization makes it free to download a great deal of its very robust data. However much of IMDb’s data is inconsistent\, incomplete\, and often wrong or misleading. The downloadable information is also limited to certain categories. This presentation will also discuss the challenges of interdisciplinary work\, and how changes in IMDb’s process over several years\, and differing views available to scholars can also create issues as we have found in our project tracing connections using the show Seinfeld. \nRequirements: none.

SUMMARY:ARIES (Art Research Exploration Space)
DESCRIPTION:Working with Dr. Claudio Silva and Dr. Lhaylla Crissaff at New York University’s Tandon School of Engineering\, we have designed a prototype for a system we have dubbed ARIES for ARt Image Exploration Space. Aries is an interactive image manipulation system that allows for the exploration and organization of fine art images (of paintings\, drawings\, prints\, sculpture\, etc.) taken from multiple sources (e.g. websites\, digital photographs\, scans) in a virtual space. ARIES provides a novel\, intuitive interface to explore\, annotate\, rearrange\, and group art images freely in a single workspace environment\, using organizational ontologies (collections\, etc.) drawn from existing best practices in art history. The system allows for multiple ways to compare images\, from using dynamic overlays analogous to a physical light box to advanced image analysis and feature–matching functions available only through computational image processing. Additionally\, users may import and export data to and from ARIES. \nIn this workshop\, we will demonstrate the tool’s functionality and participants will be able to work with an open-source BETA version. \nLEVEL: Beginner

SUMMARY:Thinking Through Word Embeddings
DESCRIPTION:Word embeddings are a family of algorithms that can be remarkably effective at representing the meanings of words\, and their relationships to each other. We’ll cover the basics of word embeddings: what they do\, how to train a model using word2vec\, and how to use them to search for synonyms and analogies. And we’ll look at issues more specific to the humanities and social sciences\, including how to compare models trained on different sets of texts to each other\, when to use word2vec vs topic models\, and strategies for visualizing models. Finally\, we’ll talk about the social biases embodied in the space of language models\, both as a technical problem with solutions and as an opportunity for algorithmic criticism. \nHands-on analysis and visualization will be done editing pre-written scripts in the R statistical environment; no prior programming experience is necessary. We’ll distribute several pre-trained models at the workshop\, but you can try to train one on your own texts ahead of time as well. \nLEVEL: Beginner\nNOTES: Laptop with R and Rstudio programs installed required. Instructions available.

SUMMARY:Digital Humanities: Visualizing Data
DESCRIPTION:Participants will be exposed to an array of digital projects\, technologies\, and methods\, and will learn some simple principles for figuring out the sources and technologies that constitute a “project.” The workshop will also address how to find and structure data\, including the kinds of data scholars in the humanities tend to be interested in\, and how to use Palladio\, a kind of Swiss Army-knife for visualizing humanities data. This workshop is geared toward those who are new to data visualization. \nPlease note this is a paid event at $25.
