Enriching metadata with better tags and descriptions makes it easier for anyone to search and find quicker and more easily. Recent advances in IT and artificial intelligence (AI) offer remarkable opportunities for the automatic enrichment of cultural heritage metadata with minimal resources. However, involving humans in this work remains important. This interesting topic came to…
Read MoreSeeking Consistency
We like consistency and standards. Maybe that is why we are in the business of taxonomies. There is no arguing that standards and structure are important to language. Without them and the existence of language conventions, comprehension would be significantly impacted. Artificial Lawyer brought this interesting topic to us in their article, “Why It Is…
