The question of whether Digital Humanities (DH) is a discipline has had a whole moment, with many publications and discussions around questions like: What even makes a discipline? Has DH reached th…

In this article, I argue that the computational history of chemistry offers a new way of engaging with the past: one that integrates narrative inquiry with algorithmic analysis, mathematical modell...

Computational Methods in the History of Alchemy and Chemistry. Volume 73, Issue 2-3 of Ambix

Wie Forschung den Weg in die Medien findet, was bei Gesprächen mit Jugendlichen über KI hilft und warum Forschende für das Magazin ‚The Conversation‘ schreiben: Das Wisskomm-Update gibt alle 14 Tage e...

The promise of computational methods opens new epistemic horizons. Yet, as we discuss in this introduction to the special issue on computational approaches to the histories of alchemy and chemistry...

With digital and computational methods becoming more visible both in scholarly and everyday contexts, it is timely to ask whether a distinct field of digital and computational history of science, k...

From the sixteenth century onwards, reference works emerged as means to transmit technical specialist knowledge to wider audiences. Authors, practitioners, and readers of early modern alchemy and c...

By now, we have all heard of computational humanities. We knew of digital humanities and digital history, but now, all of a sudden, it seems that computational history is a thing. I will not get in…

This volume reimagines the digital humanities (DH) through the expanding field of critical infrastructure studies as it explores how DH builds on and extends the field’s theories and technologies. Inc...

When Data Feminism came out in 2020, it felt like a perfect match for Digital Humanities. Here was a framework that took data seriously as a site of power, bias, and politics: exactly the kind of c…

Large language models (LLMs) are known to generate plausible but false information across a wide range of contexts, yet the real-world magnitude and consequences of this hallucination problem remain p...

The change comes as arXiv and others struggle to manage an influx of AI-generated materials masquerading as rigorous science.

How do LLMs change research about science, and create new insights and challenges for the humanities, social sciences, and AI?

Re-OCR made digitised catalogue cards searchable as text. But libraries need structured records they can ingest into their catalogues. NuExtract3 (4B, Apache-2.0) extracts schema-shaped JSON from card...
