            As a unique intangible cultural heritage in Chinese traditional culture, paper-cut art is now facing the dilemma of inheritance and development, and with the death of paper-cut artists and the damage and loss of paper-cut works, some paper-cut types also disappear. Therefore, the digital protection of paper-cut art is urgent. This research is based on the improved genetic algorithm adaptive optimization of Canny operator threshold and Grab-Cut algorithm to achieve intelligent extraction and segmentation of intangible cultural heritage paper-cut patterns. First, the collected paper-cut images are smoothed by bilateral filtering to improve the image quality. Second, based on the Canny operator optimized by the improved genetic algorithm, the overall contour of the paper-cut pattern is extracted. Then, the Grab-Cut algorithm is designed to segment the contours of decoupage design elements in a targeted way, and the vector image is processed by CDR software to obtain an independent editable vector image. Finally, the contour extraction experiments of different kinds of paper-cut images are compared by different algorithms. The results show that the method proposed in this article can effectively detect the true edge of the pattern in paper-cut images and complete the extraction of the pattern contour, and the accuracy of the segmentation pixels of each design element of paper-cut pattern is greater than 96 per cent. It provides a new method for the digital protection and innovative application of intangible cultural heritage paper-cut art.},

            This article aims to advance the scholarly discourse on the linguistic capabilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) by analysing how three different Large Language models (LLMs) approach visual humour. Specifically, it focuses on meme generation and interpretation, with an emphasis on image–text combinations. In the first section, three LLMs were prompted to generate accompanying text for ten preselected images. In the second section, they were prompted to analyse one hundred human-made memes. Results show that, despite a generally positive evaluation in humour detection, applying non-literal meaning remains a challenge, even for the best-performing AI models.},

	abstract = {Abstract
            In this article we establish a methodological and theoretical framework for the study of large collections of visual materials. Our framework, distant viewing, is distinguished from other approaches by making explicit the interpretive nature of extracting semantic metadata from images. In other words, one must ‘view’ visual materials before studying them. We illustrate the need for the interpretive process of viewing by simultaneously drawing on theories of visual semiotics, photography, and computer vision. Two illustrative applications of the distant viewing framework to our own research are draw upon to explicate the potential and breadth of the approach. A study of television series shows how facial detection is used to compare the role of actors within the narrative arcs across two competing series. An analysis of the Farm Security Administration–Office of War Information corpus of documentary photography is used to establish how photographic style compared and differed amongst those photographers involved with the collection. We then aim to show how our framework engages with current methodological and theoretical conversations occurring within the digital humanities.},

            Until recently, most research in the Digital Humanities (DH) was monomodal, meaning that the object of analysis was either textual or visual. Seeking to integrate multimodality theory into the DH, this article demonstrates that recently developed multimodal deep learning models, such as Contrastive Language Image Pre-training (CLIP), offer new possibilities to explore and analyze image–text combinations at scale. These models, which are trained on image and text pairs, can be applied to a wide range of text-to-image, image-to-image, and image-to-text prediction tasks. Moreover, multimodal models show high accuracy in zero-shot classification, i.e. predicting unseen categories across heterogeneous datasets. Based on three exploratory case studies, we argue that this zero-shot capability opens up the way for a multimodal turn in DH research. Moreover, multimodal models allow scholars to move past the artificial separation of text and images that was dominant in the field and analyze multimodal meaning at scale. However, we also need to be aware of the specific (historical) bias of multimodal deep learning that stems from biases in the training data used to train these models.},

We use this exemption to legally digitize a collection of 2,307 films representing the top 50 movies by U.S. box office over the period 1980 to 2022, along with award nominees. We design a computational pipeline for measuring the representation of gender and race/ethnicity in film, drawing on computer vision models for recognizing actors and human perceptions of gender and race/ethnicity. Doing so allows us to learn substantive facts about representation and diversity in Hollywood over this period, confirming earlier studies that see an increase in diversity over the past decade, while allowing us to use computational methods to uncover a range of ad hoc analytical findings. Our work illustrates the affordances of the data-driven analysis of film at a large scale.},

            Distant Viewing: Computational Exploration of Digital Images presents a new theory and methodology for the computational analysis of digital images, offering a lively, constructive critique of computer vision that you can actually use. What does it mean to say that computer vision “understands” visual inputs? Annotations never capture a whole image. The way digital images convey information requires what researchers Taylor Arnold and Lauren Tilton call “distant viewing”—a play on the well-known term “distant reading” from computational literary analysis.
            Recognizing computer vision's limitations, Arnold and Tilton's spirited examination makes the technical exciting by applying distant viewing to the sitcoms Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie, movie posters and other popular forms of advertising, and Dorothea Lange's photography. In the tradition of visual culture studies and computer vision, Distant Viewing's interdisciplinary perspective encompasses film and media studies, visual semiotics, and the sciences to create a playful, accessible guide for an international audience working in digital humanities, data science, media studies, and visual culture studies.},

That is, the mean luminance value of frames across the length of a film has decreased over time. We discuss psychological effects associated with these four changes and suggest that all four linear trends have a single cause: Filmmakers have incrementally tried to exercise more control over the attention of filmgoers.

Their feedback led to expanded or new coverage of topics such as deep learning and deep neural networks, including convolutional neural nets, the scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT), MERS, graph cuts, k-means clustering and superpiels, active contours (snakes and level sets), and each histogram matching. Major improvements were made in reorganising the material on image transforms into a more cohesive presentation, and in the discussion of spatial kernels and spatial filtering. Major revisions and additions were made to examples and homework exercises throughout the book},

At the same time, there are epistemic obstacles in image recognition that even AI developments are not yet able to overcome. The essay outlines these contexts and calls for further engagement in cross-disciplinary cooperation in the digital humanities in order to open up even more avenues for globally orientated architectural history.},

	abstract = {Theaterfotografie schuf ein umfangreiches visuelles Archiv der darstellenden Künste des 20. Jahrhunderts, das wegen des prekären Status des Mediums und der Archivgröße vernachlässigt wurde. Der Aufsatz argumentiert, dass Deep Learning für Computer Vision beide Herausforderungen bewältigen kann und sich Distant-Viewing-Ansätze aus Digitaler Literaturwissenschaft und Kunstgeschichte auf Theaterwissenschaft anwenden lassen. Mit Fokus auf Szenenaufnahmen wird diskutiert, warum Skalierung diese Materialien interessant macht. Disziplinäre Einwände werden adressiert und es wird vorgeschlagen, dass der Nutzen des Ansatzes im Herausfordern vorherrschender Paradigmen liegt. Die Arbeit untersucht Bildkomposition, die theaterspezifische Perspektive und Technologien wie Pose Estimation, Mesh Recognition und Sentiment Analysis. Sie erforscht die Nutzung ›voreingenommener‹ kommerzieller Technologien als wissenschaftliche Instrumente und argumentiert, dass Skalierung empirische Perspektiven provoziert. An die Stelle der ästhetischen Diskussion einzelner Aufführungsereignisse rückt die Untersuchung der medialen Repräsentation theatraler Körperbilder.},

	abstract = {The analysis of visual and material characteristics of digital representations of historical documents still plays a minor role in computer-assisted methods. Most quantitative methods and the tools used in this context focus on the content and / or writing style of literary and historical texts; bibliographic codes are generally disregarded in analysis and interpretation beyond their representation as digitized images in digital scholarly editions. This paper presents an approach to the quantitative, algorithm-based analysis of visual-material characteristics in a corpus of letters from the period ›Germany around 1900‹ and demonstrates how various automatically determinable values regarding the visually perceptible spatial layout of the letters can be used to derive insights into letter-writing practices.},
