Process mining has been successfully used in automatic knowledge discovery and providing guidance or support. The known process approaches rely on processes being executed with the help of information systems thus enabling capture traces as event logs. However, there are many other fields such Humanities, Social Sciences Medicine where workers follow log their execution manually textual forms instead. problem we tackle this paper is instance models from unstructured, text-based traces. Using...

Research in the digital humanities often involves vague information, either because our objects of study lack clearly defined boundaries, or knowledge about them is incomplete hypothetical, which especially true disciplines past (such as history, archaeology, and classical studies). Most techniques used to represent data vagueness emerged from natural sciences, expressiveness that would be ideal for humanistic contexts. Building on previous work, we present here a conceptual framework based...

Political bots, through astroturfing and other strategies, have become important players in recent elections several countries. This study aims to provide researchers the citizenry with necessary knowledge design strategies identify bots counteract what international organizations deemed bots’ harmful effects on democracy and, simultaneously, improve automatic detection of them. is based two innovative methodological approaches: (1) dealing using hybrid intelligence (HI), a multidisciplinary...

Research in digital humanities involves the need for conscious and explicit handling of data uncertainty. Recently, some initiatives have highlighted importance considering this uncertainty from conceptual model to final phases implementation software tools. Although proposals proliferated successfully, there is still a gap bringing these actual implementations systems, especially due quantify adopt more analytical paradigms based on margins error, away conceptualization humanities. Trying...

Advanced interaction techniques are necessary to explore the potential of large data-volume systems. In this context, rich internet application patterns were defined, but usually reduced development social web applications. However, other types applications, such as data-analysis require also advanced solutions assist users in making decisions and data-analysis. This paper identifies a set problems emerged between humans We propose guidelines for applications solution these problems. As...

The intrinsic characteristics of humanities research require technological support and software assistance that also necessarily goes through the analysis textual narratives. When these narratives become increasingly complex, pragmatics (i.e., at discourse or argumentation levels) assisted by is a great ally in digital humanities. In recent years, solutions have been developed from information visualization domain to sources via software, with applications political speeches, debates, online...

Most of the information that is used as input for development systems originally produced in non-structured forms, such verbal communications or free-style text documents. Some examples are requirements specifications documents associated to translation contents. In cases like these, there a need support structuring and extraction underlying semantic relations embedded text, order fully understand post-process it. There models analysis textual information, retrieval solutions topic maps....

When working in digital humanities, we are often required to manage knowledge that is highly vague, either because it refers things the world lacking clear-cut boundaries, or incomplete approximate. The usual approaches representation and information modelling, taken from engineering natural science disciplines, lack ability express these concerns. Also, software systems for humanities should acknowledge imprecise uncertain exists, but current development technologies fall short of providing...

In most cases, the studied software in cultural heritage domain has been designed from perspective of other disciplines, such as forestry engineering, geography or documentation. Institute Heritage Sciences, is a research topic, with methodologies to study activities and considering processing data derived these processes like way add value knowledge contexts [4]. From this perspective, paper shows process requirement elicitation professionals needs identified by them. It mainly focuses on...

Specialists in the humanities and social sciences often construct models of realities they work with; these are usually expressed natural language, as thesauri, or by similarly informal means. Conceptual modelling, a more formalised approach, has been used other fields for some time, we hypothesised that its usage cultural heritage field would allow specialists to create better powerful models. With this aim, 2011 launched an education program on conceptual modelling heritage. After five...

Anthropological, archaeological, and forensic studies situate enforced disappearance as a strategy associated with the Brazilian military dictatorship (1964–1985), leaving hundreds of persons without identity or cause death identified. Their reports are only existing clue for people identification detection possible crimes them. The exchange information among institutions about identities disappeared was not common practice. Thus, their analysis requires unsupervised techniques, mainly due...
