- Abstract
- This talk explores the transformative impact of AI and machine learning on digital humanities research, with a focus on the Islam West Africa Collection (IWAC). It discusses progress in AI-assisted OCR for improved text searchability, and advanced NLP techniques including named entity recognition, topic modelling, and sentiment analysis. The presentation introduces the IWAC Chat Explorer, an AI-powered tool that searches the database, provides document context, generates responses and delivers citations. This innovation demonstrates how AI is revolutionising access to and interaction with historical collections, making them more discoverable and relevant for researchers and enthusiasts alike.
