DHWG Lightning Round: Simulations for the Digital Humanities
January 31, 2020 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
This session will examine several types of computer simulations, and discuss how they might achieve wider usage in digital humanities projects. These simulations use rule-based systems to produce novel, dynamic inferences, and thus they may be able to support and advance research in several humanities fields. Examples of social science and digital humanities simulations will be presented.
