A Beginner's Guide to Swedish Academia
- 2022
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- As new to the Swedish research system, one is faced with a series of questions, about what applies to qualifications, what the networks look like, but also practical issues. To make things easier, YAS has developed a guide for international researchers, to help navigate Swedish academia and remove time-consuming obstacles.

Automated recognition of geographical named entities in titles of Ukiyo-e prints

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper investigates the application of Natural Language Processing as a means to study the relationship between topography and its visual renderings in early modern Japanese ukiyo-e landscape prints. We introduce a new dataset with titles of landscape prints that have been annotated by an art historian for any included place-names. The prints are hosted by the digital database of the Art Research Center at the Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto, one of the hubs of Digital Humanities in Japan. By applying, calibrating and assessing a Named Entity Recognition (NER) tool, we argue that ‘distant viewing’ or macroanalysis of visual datasets can be facilitated, which is needed to assist art historical studies of this rich, complex and diverse research material. Experimental results indicated that the performance of NER can be improved by 30% and reach 50% precision, by using part of the introduced dataset.

Consuming Life in Post-Bubble Japan : A Transdisciplinary Perspective
- 2018
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- This multidisciplinary book analyses the contradictory coexistence of consumerism and environmentalism in contemporary Japan. It focuses on the dilemma that the diffusion of the concepts of sustainability and recycling has posed for everyday consumption practices, and on how these concepts have affected, and were affected by, the production and consumption of art. Special attention is paid to the changes in consumption practices and environmental consciousness among the Japanese public that have occurred since the 1990s and in the aftermath of the earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear disasters of March 2011.

Distant Viewing of Ukiyo-e Prints

Ingår i: Proceedings of the Thirteenth Language Resources and Evaluation Conference. - Marseilles : European Language Resources Association. ; , s. 5879-5888

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper contributes to studying relationships between Japanese topography and places featured in early modern landscape prints, so-called ukiyo-e or ‘pictures of the floating world’. The printed inscriptions on these images feature diverse place-names, both man-made and natural formations. However, due to the corpus’s richness and diversity, the precise nature of artistic mediation of the depicted places remains little understood. In this paper, we explored a new analytical approach based on the macroanalysis of images facilitated by Natural Language Processing technologies. This paper presents a small dataset with inscriptions on prints that have been annotated by an art historian for included place-name entities. Our dataset is released for public use. By fine-tuning and applying a Japanese BERT-based Name Entity Recogniser, we provide a use-case of a macroanalysis of a visual dataset that is hosted by the digital database of the Art Research Center at the Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto. Our work studies the relationship between topography and its visual renderings in early modern Japanese ukiyo-e landscape prints, demonstrating how an art historian’s work can be improved with Natural Language Processing toward distant viewing of visual datasets.
