올해 여름, KAIST에서 계산사회과학(Computational Social Science, CSS)에 관심 있는 분들을 위한 집중 프로그램인 <2026 SICSS-Korea (Summer Institute in Computational Social Science)>를 KDI School과 함께 개최할 예정입니다(with 윤지성 교수님, 조성아 교수님).
최근 들어 계산사회과학은 그 어느 때보다 중요해지고 있습니다. 이는 새로운 방법론의 등장 때문만이 아니라, 사람, 정보, 기술, 제도 등이 서로 얽혀 만들어내는 사회적 과정을 사회과학의 이론적 관점과 데이터·컴퓨팅을 결합하여 이해하는 것의 중요성이 매우 커지고 있기 때문입니다. 특히나 인공지능이 이러한 사회적 과정 위에서 작동하고 이를 다시 재구성하는 핵심 기술로 자리 잡으면서, 이러한 이해의 필요성은 아주 커지고 있습니다.
이런 맥락에서 계산사회과학은 사회과학 연구에 컴퓨팅을 적용하는 것을 포함하는 건은 물론이거니와, 사람, 정보, 기술, 제도 등이 어떻게 상호작용하는지를 이해하려는 다학제적 시도입니다. 정치학, 지리학, 사회학, 커뮤니케이션, 경제학 등 다양한 사회과학 분야와, 산업공학, 컴퓨터과학, 정보학, 네트워크과학 등의 통찰을 연결하며, 그동안 분절적으로 다뤄져 왔던 연구 흐름들을 하나의 관점으로 통합합니다.

이번 프로그램에는 국내외에서 활동하는 계산사회과학 분야의 탑 클래스 연구자들이 참여하여 강연을 진행할 예정입니다. 최신 연구 흐름과 방법론을 직접 접할 수 있는 기회가 될 것입니다. 이와 더불어, 이번 프로그램은 단순한 강의 중심 프로그램에 그치지 않고, 참가자들이 직접 아이디어를 발전시키고 함께 연구를 논의하는 작고 밀도 있는 1주 프로그램으로 구성되어 있습니다.
약 15명 내외로 소수 인원을 선발하며, 선발된 참가자에게는 KAIST 기숙사 숙박 및 다수의 식사가 지원됩니다(단, 이동 비용은 지원되지 않습니다).
다음은 주요 일정입니다. 특히 4월 23일 2시에 온라인 설명회가 예정되어 있으니 많이 참여 부탁 드립니다(RSVP 링크 및 줌 링크는 포스터 참고):
“AI를 활용한 한국 근대소설 TEI 태깅” 한국 근대소설 텍스트를 수집/정제하고, 구글 AI studio와 프롬프트 엔지니어링을 통해 TEI/XML 반자동 태깅을 하는 과정을 다룬다. 반자동 태깅 이후에는 연구자들의 검수를 통해 태깅을 수정 보완한다. 이 과정에서 국한문 혼용 및 일본어/중국어/영어 등의 외국어가 포함된 한국 근대문학 텍스트에 최적화된 TEI 태깅 작업의 전과정을 다루며, 30여개의 소설 텍스트를 태깅한 KNoTE (Korean Novel TEI Encoded) dataset을 공개한다.
본 대회(7월 29–31일)에 앞서 7월 27–28일(월–화) 이틀간 미니컨퍼런스 12개, 워크샵 18개, SIG 미팅 5개 등 총 35개 세션이 진행됩니다. 모든 프리컨퍼런스 이벤트는 대회 등록자에게 무료로 제공되며, ConfTool 등록 시 과정에서 참가를 신청할 수 있습니다.

강연자 1: Naoya Iwata (Nagoya University; National Institute of Informatics) 강연 제목:Scaling Humanitext Antiqua: Advances in RAG Retrieval Accuracy and Corpus Expansion for a Western Classical Literature Platform 강연 초록: This talk presents recent progress on Humanitext Antiqua, an AI-powered platform for Western classical literature. We report on three developments: improvements to RAG retrieval accuracy through context-aware query reformulation; an ongoing corpus expansion from approximately 1,000 to 2,500 works; and a metadata enrichment workflow that combines automated Wikidata linking with human-in-the-loop review as a scalable annotation strategy.
강연자 2: Ikko Tanaka (J. F. Oberlin University) 강연 제목: Extending the Horizons of Western Classical Texts toward Networked Interpretation — Linking Texts, References, and Spatiotemporal Context with LLMs 강연 초록: This lecture presents two systems developed within the Humanitext project as extensions of its core vectorized corpus of Western Classical texts. Humanitext Reader develops a structured reference framework linking primary texts with ancient commentaries and modern research, addressing variation in citation scope and differences between textual editions. Humanitext GEO integrates the vectorized corpus with temporal and geographic frameworks through Linked Open Data, enabling city-centered synchronic and diachronic exploration. Together, these systems outline the development of an AI-assisted interpretive infrastructure connecting texts, references, and spatiotemporal context.
강연자 3: Jun Ogawa (University of Tokyo) 강연 제목: Humanitext Schema: Struggles to Connect Text Sources and Integrate Broad Knowledge 강연 초록: Humanitext Antiqua generates answers grounded in accurate primary sources, yet its major limitation is the insufficient integration of extra-textual context, such as related text fragments, commentaries, and secondary scholarship. Because semantic connections between sources rely on expertized knowledge, they cannot be captured through vector similarity alone. We therefore propose linking texts and contextual information through a knowledge graph and incorporating it into the generation process. Our work explores methods for modeling text–commentary relationships as a first step, including a TEI-based DTS, character-level RDF representation, and property graphs. This talk outlines our experiments and the trial-and-error process behind this approach.

제5회 2026 동아시아 고적 디지털인문학 국제논단 DHEAC: Annual International Conference on Digital Humanities for East Asia Classics
취지 수천 년에 걸쳐 전승되어 온 고대 전적은 인류 문명의 가장 중요한 매개체입니다. 한국을 비롯한 중국과 일본 등 동아시아 지역은 오랜 역사 속에서 한자 문화를 기반으로 방대한 고적 문헌을 축적 · 보존해 왔습니다. 이러한 고적 문헌은 학계가 동방 문명을 인식 · 이해 · 해석 · 연구하는 근거이자, 동서양 문화 교류의 핵심 매개 역할을 수행합니다. 동아시아 고적은 유럽과 북미 학계, 특히 국제 한학 연구의 중요한 자료로 활용되며, 서구의 동아시아 고적 연구는 본토 학계에도 중대한 영향을 미쳤습니다. 시대의 발전과 함께 OCR · 딥러닝 · 지식그래프 등 디지털 지능 기술은 고적의 정리 · 열람 · 연구 · 전파 방식에 혁신을 가져왔고, 온라인 환경은 전 세계 고적 연구자와 애호가를 긴밀히 연결하여 고전학 관련 디지털 인문학을 독립된 연구 분야로 자리매김하게 했습니다. 본 학술대회는 디지털 · 지능화 정보환경에서 고적 자원의 체계적 정리 · 개발 · 활용을 촉진하고, 고적 연구자와 정보기술 전문가 간 소통 · 협력하는 플랫폼을 구축하며, 글로벌 고전적 관련 기관 · 단체 · 개인의 협력을 강화함으로써 동아시아 고전학에 새로운 시각과 확장된 연구 공간을 제공하는 것을 목표로 합니다.
Latest submission date for inclusion in the 2026 volume: 1 October 2026
Publication on a rolling basis––––––––––
magazén | International Journal for Digital and Public Humanities is the interdisciplinary journal of the Venice Centre for Digital and Public Humanities (VeDPH). Articles undergo double-blind peer review and are published in open access and on-rolling-basis. The journal is indexed in Scopus as Q1 for Literature and Literary Theory, while it has earned the Italian ANVUR classification as Grade A journal in the area 10/B1 for Art History. It covers the international debate and methodological discourse about the collaborative development of durable, reusable, and shared resources for research, learning, and public outreach covering a wide range of topics from Digital and Public History, Art History, Archaeology and Cultural Heritage to Museum Studies and Textual Scholarship.
The name magazén refers to the historical definition of public houses in the Republic of Venice, which were thriving places of diverse human deeds, including information exchange, commercial bargains, and pawnshops.
Call for papers and edited issues | Volume 2026
magazén is accepting abstract proposals that highlight recent challenges as well as cutting edge experiences in the Digital and Public Humanities from local to international level. Scholars are particularly invited to submit contributions that span from theoretical debates to methodological reflections, also comprising the examination of particular case studies from the heterogeneous domains of Digital and Public History, Art History, Archaeology, Cultural Heritage, Museum Studies, and Textual Scholarship. magazén draws particular attention to the public aspects of these interdisciplinary domains, hosting research projects that hold firm to the principle of audience involvement from their very inception, rather than having public interaction as a derivative result of scholarly work. Eventually, the abstract proposal should address the following questions: What kind of materials and research questions are concerned? What digital/public methods and tools are employed, and what is their added value in tackling humanistic research aims? If the prospective paper addresses a case study or a particular project, authors should please state whether it has been completed and already made available to the research community, or whether it is still a work in progress. The Editorial Board is open to host single paper proposals from international scholars as well as to cover entire issues with guest editors.
Submissions | Abstracts and guidelines
For scholars interested in submitting a proposal, please send the provisional title and a 250-500 word-long abstract together with a short biographical note and a provisionalbibliography. All materials should be sent via the submission portal on the editorial platform of our academic publisher Edizioni Ca’ Foscari. Selection notification will be sent out within three weeks from the submission deadline.
Finalised contributions are expected to be 25.000-35.000 characters long (spaces, note and bibliography included) and will undergo double blind peer review. Accepted languages are Italian and English. All texts need an English abstract. The finalised paper must adhere to the editorial guidelines of Edizioni Ca’ Foscari. Texts that should not comply with editorial guidelines or whose English linguistic form should not reach a sufficient level of quality will not be accepted. Please note that the journal does not offer language proof-reading services to the authors, who must also secure all copyright permissions (reproduction costs included) for images and other media.

The Japanese Association for Digital Humanities (JADH) is pleased to announce its 15th annual conference, to be held at Kyushu University on September 11-13, 2026. Digital data do not exist in isolation. They come to life only within specific contexts of use, interpretation, infrastructure, and care. Following Jakob von Uexküll’s concept of Umwelt, this conference understands data as embedded in situated worlds of meaning—worlds shaped by disciplines, institutions, technologies, cultures, languages, and communities. Umwelt is the contextually constituted world in which data gain meaning through use and interpretation.
Under the theme “Whose World, Whose Data? Sustainability in Digital Umwelts,” this conference invites participants to rethink digital sustainability not simply as long-term preservation or technical endurance, but as a question of whose worlds are sustained, transformed, or allowed to fade through digital practices.
Sustainability, from this perspective, is not only about keeping data alive. It is also about circulation, reuse, reinterpretation, care, neglect, and even release. Data may migrate across multiple digital Umwelts—archives, platforms, communities, disciplines—changing their meanings and functions along the way. At the same time, some data may lose relevance, remain unused, or demand ethical reconsideration regarding their continued existence.
This conference provides a forum to explore how digital humanities can engage with these questions across various theoretical, methodological, practical, ethical, and regional perspectives. Contributions may be theoretical, methodological, empirical, technical, practice-based, reflective, ethical, or regional, and interdisciplinary approaches are especially encouraged.
Topics of Interest (include, but are not limited to) We welcome papers, panels, posters, and other formats addressing topics such as: – Digital sustainability through adaptation, transformation, and reuse – Data lifecycles, circulation, reuse, and transformation – Umwelt, context, and situated meaning in digital humanities – AI and Machine Learning as distinct digital Umwelts – Whose data are preserved, and whose are marginalized or lost – Community-based archives and local knowledge infrastructures – Indigenous, minority, and endangered-language data practices – Ethical questions of care, ownership, access, and responsibility – Data governance, power, and institutional environments – Infrastructure, platforms, and their implicit “worlds” – Forgetting, obsolescence, deletion, and non-use as design choices – Cross-cultural and cross-regional perspectives on digital data – Environmental, social, and cultural sustainability in DH – Rethinking archives, databases, and collections as living worlds
However, it’s important to clarify that the conference’s scope extends beyond the theme. Topics of interest span a wide range, including AI, data mining, information design and modeling, software studies, and humanities research enabled through the digital medium; computer-based research and computer applications in literary, linguistic, cultural, and historical studies, including electronic literature, public humanities; and interdisciplinary aspects of modern scholarship. Examples might include text analysis, corpora, corpus linguistics, language processing, language learning, and endangered languages; the digital arts, architecture, music, film, theater, new media and related areas; the creation and curation of humanities digital resources; and the role of Digital Humanities in academic curricula. The range of topics covered by Digital Humanities can also be consulted in the journal Digital Scholarship in the Humanities (http://dsh.oxfordjournals.org/), Oxford University Press.
Abstracts submitted should be of 500-1000 words in length in English, including the title and authors’ names.
Please submit abstracts via the ConfTool website below, which is not yet open, by 11:59 PM, 15 Apr, 2026 (HAST).
Submissions for presentation papers will be accepted starting around February at the same URL above: Presenters will be notified of acceptance on May 30, 2026.
