The increasing capacities of large language models (LLMs) have been shown to present an unprecedented opportunity to scale up data analytics in the humanities and social sciences,…
Automated stance detection in complex topics and small languages: the challenging case of immigration in polarizing news media
Mark Mets, Andres Karjus, Indrek Ibrus +1
Automated stance detection and related machine learning methods can provide useful insights for media monitoring and academic research. Many of these approaches require annotated t…
Collection Space Navigator: An Interactive Visualization Interface for Multidimensional Datasets
Tillmann Ohm, Mar Canet Solà, Andres Karjus +1
We introduce the Collection Space Navigator (CSN), a browser-based visualization tool to explore, research, and curate large collections of visual digital artifacts that are associ…
Reliable Detection and Quantification of Selective Forces in Language Change
Juan Guerrero Montero, Andres Karjus, Kenny Smith +1
Language change is a cultural evolutionary process in which variants of linguistic variables change in frequency through processes analogous to mutation, selection and genetic drif…
Compression ensembles quantify aesthetic complexity and the evolution of visual art
Andres Karjus, Mar Canet Solà, Tillmann Ohm +2
The quantification of visual aesthetics and complexity have a long history, the latter previously operationalized via the application of compression algorithms. Here we generalize…
Conceptual similarity and communicative need shape colexification: an experimental study
Andres Karjus, Richard A. Blythe, Simon Kirby +2
Colexification refers to the phenomenon of multiple meanings sharing one word in a language. Cross-linguistic lexification patterns have been shown to be largely predictable, as si…
Communicative need modulates competition in language change
Andres Karjus, Richard A. Blythe, Simon Kirby +1
All living languages change over time. The causes for this are many, one being the emergence and borrowing of new linguistic elements. Competition between the new elements and olde…
Quantifying the dynamics of topical fluctuations in language
Andres Karjus, Richard A. Blythe, Simon Kirby +1
The availability of large diachronic corpora has provided the impetus for a growing body of quantitative research on language evolution and meaning change. The central quantities i…
