ONB Labs Symposium: Newspapers as Datasets
November 25, 2024 - November 26, 2024
Under the theme “Newspapers as Datasets”, the event will offer several panels over the span of two half-days on the diverse topics of collections as data and especially newspapers as datasets, artificial intelligence and its applications in libraries. The panels will include presentations by researchers in international projects, current work reports by researchers and presentations by staff at national libraries and AI labs.
The speakers will address the following questions among others:
How can generative AI be used to advance research on historical newspapers?
How can deep learning be used to automatically recognize certain elements of newspapers – and how can this process be explained?
What role can “newspapers as datasets” play in the joint European Dataspace and in the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage?
What challenges are library labs and national libraries currently facing with regard to newspapers?
The Symposium is financially supported by CLARIAH-AT.
