It includes AI and computational methods such as Text and Data Mining, Computational Linguistics, Data Management, and Network Analysis. Although digital methods and AI have been topics of research in society for several decades, this book is not limited to discoveries in these domains. It is also dedicated to reflecting on the methods and results within the field of computer science. Thus, we are particularly interested in interdisciplinary exchange and dissemination with a clear focus on computational and AI methods. This includes, but is not limited to, education and labor market research, ethical and philosophical considerations, and sociological challenges for AI in society.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\" lang=\"en-GB\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><strong>Book title:<\/strong> Advances in Computational Social Sciences<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><span lang=\"en-GB\"><strong>Subtitle<\/strong>: AI, Computational Methods and Applications for the Study of Society<br \/>\n<strong>Editors<\/strong>: Jens D\u00f6rpinghaus &amp; Michael Tiemann<br \/>\n<strong>Publisher<\/strong>: Springer<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 lang=\"en-GB\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Background<\/span><\/h2>\n<blockquote>\n<p lang=\"en-GB\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><em><span lang=\"en-US\">Research on society encompasses a broad range of topics within the domains of computational study of culture, social sciences, and humanities. This includes subjects such as education, the labor market, history, religious studies, theology, cultural heritage, and informative predictions for decision-making and behavioral science perspectives.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-GB\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><em><span lang=\"en-US\">Since there is a clear methodological overlap between these three domains and often similar algorithms and AI approaches are considered, this book serves as a place for interdisciplinary learning. It discusses a joint toolbox to support scholars from these fields with human and context-aware agents.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p lang=\"en-GB\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><em><span lang=\"en-US\">The aim of this books thus is to bridge the gap between scientific domains, foster interdisciplinary exchange and discuss how research questions from other domains challenge current computer science. In particular, we are interested in communications between researchers from different fields of computer science, social sciences, economics, humanities, and practitioners from different fields.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">The list of topics thus includes, but is not limited to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">AI and computational approaches for the interdisciplinary work of the social sciences, economics, and humanities: report on theoretical, methodological, experimental, and applied research.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">AI and computational approaches for linking data from different digital resources, including online social networks, web and data mining, Knowledge Graphs, Ontologies.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">AI and computational methods for text mining and textual analysis, for example texts within social sciences, digital literacy studies, computational stylistics and stylometry.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Text encoding, computational linguistics, annotation guidelines, OCR for humanities, economics, and social sciences.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Network analysis, including social and historical network analysis.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">While we encourage submissions from a broad background, we also encourage submissions to two special topics. In 2024 these will be:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Ethical and philosophical considerations of AI in society and research.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Sociological challenges for AI in society, e.g., labour market, education or media.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">In general, the applications of interest are included in the list below, but are not limited to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Labour market research and qualification, including behavioral-science perspectives.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Education: Digital methods and systems, e-learning, adult education, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Contributions to the application of technology to culture, history, and societal issues: For example, computational text analysis, analytical and visualization, databases, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">In particular, we welcome submissions focusing on a critical reflection of digital methods in the humanities, economics and social sciences within computer science.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Linking of digital resources, a discussion of data sets, their quality and reliability, combining quantitative and qualitative data, anonymization and data protection.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><strong>Requirement of the Abstract\/Synopsis<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit a title and abstract (500 words maximum) describing the background, purpose, concepts, research methodology or approach, findings, and conclusions or recommendations for the proposed chapter by November 28, 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Decisions on submitted abstracts will be made from November 28 to December 12, 2024, and authors will be required to submit their chapter for peer review by February 28, 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Final submissions should be between 15-30 pages in Springer style.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">For further information please contact <a href=\"mailto:doerpinghaus@uni-koblenz.de\">doerpinghaus@uni-koblenz.de<\/a>\/<a href=\"mailto:mtiemann@uni-koblenz.de\">mtiemann@uni-koblenz.de<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This book is dedicated to the explication of a joint computational methods toolbox for the study of society and its current advances.
