In recent years, the intersection of data science, digital humanities, and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has emerged as a fertile ground for groundbreaking research, innovation, and exploration. The theme of the 2nd International Conference on Data & Digital Humanities — Generative Artificial Intelligence for Text and Multimodal Data (DDHUM2024) underscores the pivotal role that generative AI plays in transforming the landscape of humanities research and scholarship.
The main goal of this conference is to unite researchers from diverse disciplines interested in the methodologies and practical utilization of GenAI for the analysis, application, and communication of textual and multimodal data. We extend invitations to linguistic specialists, data scientists, IT professionals, developers, and individuals with a keen interest in working with textual and multimodal data and GenAI, encouraging discussions on current and future challenges. Particularly, we encourage the submission of papers focusing on the intersection of the following topics with GenAI and textual and multimodal data:
