Discovering structure in social networks of 19th century fiction
2016
Proceedings of the 8th ACM Conference on Web Science - WebSci '16
Preserved Fulltext
In this paper, we examine detailed social networks of characters, extracted from several works of 19th century fiction by Jane Austen and Charles Dickens. ...
Inspired by the increasing availability of large text corpora online, digital humanities scholars are adopting computational approaches to explore questions in the field of literature from new perspectives ...
This research was partly supported by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) under Grant Number SFI/12/RC/2289, in collaboration with the Nation, Genre and Gender project funded by the Irish Research Council ...

A profile hidden Markov model, a popular model in biological sequence analysis, can be used to model related sequences of characters transcribed from books, magazines, and other printed materials. ...
This paper documents one application of a profile HMM: automatically producing an ebook edition from distinct print editions. ...
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thanks in particular to Christof Schöch, whose work on text comparison [14] prompted the search that led me to learn about the profile HMM. ...

The migration of information from paper to computers promises to change the whole nature of research, and in particular the methods by which people locate information. ...
The goal of the New Zealand Digital Library project is to explore the potential of Internet-based digital libraries, by which we mean large collections of electronic, predominantly textual, documents, ...
For example, we have incorporated two small collections of English literature (totalling 550 books): the Oxford Text Archive (from the UK) and the Gutenberg collection (from the US). ...

We identify and extract illustrations in digitized documents by learning the discriminative patterns of textual and pictorial regions. ...
The proposal has been demonstrated to be effective on historical datasets and to outperform the state-of-the-art in presence of challenging documents with a large variety of pictorial elements. ...
If Optical Character Recognition (OCR) methods almost yield completely reliable results, the task of identifying textual regions and separate them from other components of the page is more challenging ...
