Noon – 1:00pm
247 Hesburgh Library, Navari Family Center for Digital Scholarship
Using the suggested content from the University Forum on War and Peace, learn how to apply distant reading and machine learning techniques to address timeless questions surrounding war, peace, honor, and justice. This workshop will engage participants in the process of using a computer to read, question, use, and understand the content of a selected body of scholarship.
No prior experience in distant reading nor machine learning is required, but familiarity with the suggested readings or, at the very least, an inquisitive mind is helpful.
Open to Undergraduates, Graduate Students, Faculty, Staff, Postdocs
