An Alchemical Object Detection Dataset for Early Modern Scientific Illustrations
This Dataset contains:
- The scraping script for alchemical illustrations
- The Book Metadata Scraper
- A Dataset Documentation: Alchemical Laboratory Object Detection Annotations (YOLO8 & MS COCO Formats)
- An Explanation of the Repository Contents (which file is what)
- Links & Additional Resources
Further Information can be found here: https://latex-ninja.com/2024/09/06/how-to-create-your-own-fine-tuning-or-training-dataset-for-computer-vision-using-supervisely/This annotation data is based on an image dataset curated by Ute Frietsch at the HAB as part of a previous project that involved the development of Iconclass classifications for alchemical objects. In "Erschließung alchemiegeschichtlicher Quellen" at the Herzog August Library, a dataset of 1,800 relevant book pages from early modern prints was tagged with keywords (https://alchemie.hab.de/bilder).
To make the data usable for computer vision and specifically object detection, the locations of the objects on the images need to be specified in a usable image annotation format (such as MS COCO or YOLO) so they can be used to train machine learning algorithms. In the context of a 2024 Wolfenbüttel NFDI 4 Memory Fair Data Fellowship, approximately 640 of these pages were classified using the Supervisely platform to provide ground truth data in the annotation formats mentioned above. These make up the contents of this repository along with a README from the related GitHub repository (https://github.com/sarahalang/hab-nfdi4memory-fairDataFellow). The dataset is described in more detail in the data paper, "Fine-Tuning Machine Learning with Historical Data. An Alchemical Object Detection Dataset for Early Modern Scientific Illustrations".NFDI4Memor
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
