Due to complex negations, ironic and metaphorical ways of speaking, unreliable results are often generated. Therefore we have developed a method that measures the 'sentiment sensitivity' in the characters' speeches ignoring the polarity of sentiment lemmas.</p>
<p>For the worldwide conference of Digital Humanities (DH 2020) the paper "Sentiment Sensitivity: Using sentiment analysis in literary studies to analyze genre and the depiction of illness" was accepted. hermA is thus represented at the international DH conference for the second time. Last year the paper "Evaluation of a Semantic Field-Based Approach to Identifying Text Sections about Specific Topics" was presented.</p>NAGR-fakgw-13183178-production2020-02-03T23:00:00ZWorkshop "Patients’ Changing Agency in the Tension of digital and non-digital Health Communication"Patients’ Changing Agency in the Tension of digital and non-digital Health Communication
Workshop of the collaborative Research Project „Automated modelling of hermeneutic Processes – The use of Annotation in Social Research and the Humanities for Analyses on Health“ (hermA)
4th & 5th February 2020, University of Hamburg, Edmund-Siemers-Allee 1 West, Room 221
<p>As the digitalisation of health systems is progressing, digital and non-digital health communication are increasingly challenged, new possibilities as well as pitfalls especially for patients arise. Digital devices and infrastructures are built increasingly for the various processes within the health system. Communication and the manners in which knowledge is generated in the field of illness and health in the digital sphere change as well as concepts of privacy and anonymity. An intensive discussion of the appertaining norms and values has begun in this context. Therefore, questions concerning the changing relationship between patients, health care providers, and the technical infrastructure emerge. Regarding diagnosis and treatment of illnesses, patients’ changing agency as their processual capacity to act and to decide on their health is becoming an important angle. A special focus lies on mental health care and the area of emotional and mental support.</p>
<p>The workshop aims to differentiate the research area of digital and non-digital health communication with a focus on patients’ changing agency, asking after evaluations of the changing field of health. The workshop therefore examines these perspectives in an interdisciplinary context and brings them together focussing on the discussion of emerging phenomena and research questions.</p>

Please find the abstract below (in German).</p>
<p>Im Projekt HerCoRe (finanziert von der Volkswagen-Stiftung) wird zum ersten Mal versucht, bei der Annotation von unscharfen Äußerungen verschiedene Ebenen der Vagheit zu annotieren und sie für die hermeneutische Interpretation durch den Geisteswissenschaftler transparent zu halten, da die Methoden der DH keine hermeneutische Potenz haben.<br>Das ausgewählte Korpus besteht aus zwei Hauptwerken Dimitrie Cantemirs, eines Universalgelehrten des 17. Jahrhunderts und Mitglied der „Kurfürstlich –Brandenburgischen Societät der Wissenschaften“.<br>Durch gezielte Annotation von Vagheit und entsprechende Auswertung wird versucht, drei geisteswissenschaftliche Fragestellungen im Bezug auf die Cantemir-Forschung zu lösen:</p>
Der erstmalige Vergleich aller historischen Übersetzungen, da seit geraumer Zeit die Vermutung formuliert wurde, dass diese relativ stark von den Originalen abweichen.
Die Untersuchung der Zuverlässigkeit von Äusserungen Cantemirs. Hierbei werden vor allem Quellen von turkologischen Fachwissenschaftlern einbezogen.
Die Konsistenz von Cantemir über dieselben Personen und Ereignisse in den zwei Werken.

<p>Wikidata: Gemeinsam Fakten schaffen (?)<br>Noch fristet das vielleicht bedeutendste Projekt der Wikimedia Foundation nach der Wikipedia weitestgehend ein Schattendasein: Wikidata wird in naher Zukunft das offene Faktenrepositorium nicht nur für die Wikipedien aller Sprachen der Welt werden, sondern prinzipiell eine zentrale Datenbank maschinenlesbaren Faktenwissens über das Universum sein. In einem der nächsten Schritte sollen zunächst die Metadaten zu den Medienobjekten der Wikimedia Commons in Wikidata gespeichert werden, und damit nicht zuletzt die Metadaten zu abertausenden Kunstwerken und historischen Bauten und Objekten.<br>Der Vortrag wirft in Form einer Einführung anhand praktischer Beispiele ein Licht auf das Projekt, das aufgrund seiner Stellung innerhalb der <span>Linked-Open-Data</span>-Entwicklung mitbestimmen könnte, wie Maschinen unsere Welt kennenlernen und sie uns weitervermitteln werden. Ein Schwerpunkt wird dabei auf der Rolle von Wikidata im Kontext von <span>Open Cultural Data</span> liegen.</p>

Please find the abstract below (in German).</p>
<p>Zeitgenössische Datenpraktiken verändern zunehmend tiefgreifend Wissens- und Entscheidungsprozesse in Alltag und Wissenschaft, Politik und Wirtschaft. Während die einen sich ökonomische, wissenschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Fortschritte erhoffen, betonen andere vor allem neue ethische, soziale und politische Gefahren, welche sich durch die Anwendung von Big Data in verschiedenen gesellschaftlichen Sektoren ergeben. In meinem Vortrag werde ich argumentieren, dass sowohl das Verständnis als auch die Regulierung dieser Datenpraktiken einer Analyse bedarf, welche erkenntnistheoretische, ethische und politische Fragen zusammendenkt.</p>
