Meeting Description:

Today, there are many ways in which the human and social sciences use digital tools to investigate different aspects of human life and society. As the significance and use of digital resources continually expands into new fields of study, there are some disciplines which have already been working with digital methods for decades. This conference aims to present an overview of the current state of research in fields such as archival studies, cultural studies, history, linguistics, literature, performing and visual arts, philosophy where novel approaches are being made available through digital tools. The 2024 conference focusses on novel and innovative approaches to make use of digital applications, in particular in the light of the advent of machine learning and A.I. solutions.

The Digital Research Data and Human Sciences (DRDHum 2024) conference aims to bring together researchers who have different areas of interest and expertise to discuss the themes of data compilation and management, and to share their knowledge and experience. We encourage contributions from researchers and research groups who have implemented interdisciplinary research to participate in the event.

DRDHum 2024 is organized by the University of Eastern Finland. The first (D)RDHum Conference was hosted at the University of Oulu in 2019, where the focus was specifically on linguistic text corpora. The second conference, 2022 at the University of Jyväskylä was more expansive, looking at digital resources and technologies within the humanities and include multi-modal approaches.
