Digital Humanities in Asia

The volumes in this series turn an attention to Asian digital humanities (Dh/dh), beyond the already established theoretical and methodological frames of the West.

DH works pertain to datasets, workflows, platforms, new communities and associated forms of capture, publication, storage, and display. Regional variations range from the provenance and generation of data, how information is harvested and mined, and how these efforts are narrated specific to Asian language challenges, digitisation and digital social worlds. Recent applications of AI/ML, big data, deep learning and allied uses in heritage or historical works in conservation and digital preservation; digital art and applications in imaging and curation; the use of digital tools; and related issues in data, law, privacy, ethics, mis-/dis-information, fake news, algorithmic bias offer yet more challenges in thinking through digital futures.

Since the growth of DH and the concurrent development of new applications, the design of digital media platforms and digital teaching have altered creation and curation in academic and public spheres accompanying new possibilities with emerging technologies across Asia.
