==The Semantics of Historical Knowledge. Labelling Strategies for Interdisciplinary and Digital Research in History==
Proceedings of the Workshop on Hybrid Intelligence for Natural Language Processing Tasks HI4NLP (co-located at ECAI-2020) Santiago de Compostela, August 29, 2020, published at http://ceur-ws.org The Semantics of Historical Knowledge. Labelling Strategies for Interdisciplinary and Digital Research in History Esther Travé Allepuz1 and Pablo del Fresno Bernal2 and Alfred Mauri Martí3 and Sonia Medina Gordo1 Abstract. 1 This short paper aims at introducing some labelling a must-use tool to speed up data gathering and exploitation concepts developed and used by the authors. Indeed, developing a processes and to open a brand-new field for historical research in conceptual framework for interdisciplinary research in history is a which new and more complex questions can be asked to past much-needed strategy in order to ensure that historians use all vestiges. In doing so, research itself acquires a FAIR character vestiges from the past regardless their origin or support for the [32], ensuring the reliability and traceability of past construction. construction of historical discourse.

This new scenario requires an effort from different disciplines in order to explore common languages and codes which become able 1 INTRODUCTION to identify, register and exploit common and exchangeable units of information regardless of the specificity of our areas of expertise, Historical knowledge is a construction of the past built from its scientific domain or sources used. According to these needs, we vestiges, thoroughly examined and assessed in order to purify them offer a brief layout of interdisciplinary Semantics of Historical from its potential bias. In vestiges left from former époques, Knowledge and the main concepts that have proved to be historians search for information related to two key interdependent operational in our domain in order to develop an integrated concepts: time and change. These are ontological concepts for past historical approach. construction –in K. Thibodeau’s terms [28]– because the particular coordinates of both determine the existence of events. In other words, historical facts are a continuum of elements balanced 2 DATA MODELLING AND LABELLING between permanence and change, what we call Historical Time [3]. CATEGORIES Data related to time and change might be present in any written, material or immaterial vestige. Hence, data gathering and One of the most common practices in History when approaching exploitation must surmount the academic fragmentation of archival capital is to read ancient documents endless times until information sources in order to build an integrated discourse. The you get an exact idea of their content and implications. Frequently, spatial and material turns in history have led historians to a more historians take brief notes about the information discovered or complete and accurate reflection of the past. Nonetheless, the write down the archival reference of the set of files concerning the digital turn occurred in many Social and Human Sciences still finds researcher’s specific field of interest. Apparently, there is nothing an unreceptive reaction when coming to History, and data wrong in doing so and, definitely, accurate dissertations and essays managing strategies have been widely discussed [11]. have been written through this method. Far from being overwhelmed by the unknowns of this domain, a Unfortunately, as time passes by, references and notes are no few exceptions deal with different ways of representing historical longer used and successive generations of historians need to go information [18-19] and the semantic definition of historical back again to the original file in order to increase our knowledge of ontology building [12, 24, 29]. Recent experiences focus on past societies, or to review historical discourses under the quantitative data analyses [5] and, predominantly, on written perspective of a new state-of-the-art, or to address new questions to historical texts [1, 16]. Some of them struggle to find the best ways written vestiges. In addition, non-normalized data obtained through to deal with bias [9] and uncertainty [25]. Despite this, a this procedure are hardly ever comparable to other sources of normalized user-friendly code to exploit vestiges of different information, particularly if a published reflection is missing. nature and support is still missing and historical knowledge seems According to M. D. Wilkinson and colleagues, historical science as to be restricted to its written apparel. We acknowledge the such would certainly not be FAIR [32]. capability of hybrid intelligence for natural language processing as Archaeological method [8] as performed nowadays forces archaeologists to keep a standard register [15] of what they 1 History and Archaeology department, Universitat de Barcelona, Spain, excavate, since the very same act of digging out a site destroys its esther.trave@ub.edu; smedingo12@alumnes.ub.edu materiality.

Our labelling proposal owes considerably right balance between written and material evidences when to the interpretation of the analyst, which might seem paradoxical, building the historical discourse, but also to include many other due to the existence of automatized tools such as XML text sources of historical data. Indeed, iconography, linguistics, encoding [6]. Nevertheless, only through the identification and journalism, literature… deal with vestiges of the past and registration of UT, Ac and their attributes, we are capable of specialists on these domains contribute to the development of exploiting historical data regardless their written, material or non- historical knowledge within a co-creation scenario. material character. As a result, we used several semantic concepts that define the minimum informative data present in vestiges regardless of their origin, purpose, nature, and support. These are Unit of Topography (UT) and Actor (Ac). Both are ontological concepts to identify historical facts: entities existing and changing all the time, and events as an expression of what alters permanence. Even though the concept of UT owes so much to Harris’ Unit of Stratigraphy (US) [15] (p. 42), researchers from all kinds of Social and Human Sciences could identify and label these in any source of information whether textual, material or audiovisual. That would lead to the opening of promising interdisciplinary challenges. Figure 1. UML diagram of ontological concepts –UT, Ac and their relations– for integrated historical research. 2.1 Units of Topography and Actors 2.2 Procedure and examples As defined by K. Thibodeau [28] (p. 7), an Entity is something that In the following section, we provide several examples of UT/Ac existed and an Event is something that happened or was done. identification and labelling as a brief demonstration of Entities and Events have relationship of involvement, as every methodological procedure and the potential of data exploitation. event involves at least one entity that might be the participant in Examples include multiscale and interdisciplinary primary or the event, its observer, the mechanism for the event to happen, or secondary sources related to the site of Arévalo (Ávila, Spain). the object altered by the event itself.

We identified and its biotic, non-biotic or anthropic attributes. Each UT has labelled UT through image processing software. Notice that UT a specific location and date. Location can be expressed as identification can be as exhaustive as required by the sphere of a UTM coordinate or as an administrative delimitation interest determined by the researcher. In this case, only urban areas that might have changed through time. and historical buildings have been recorded. • Actor (Ac): It is the individual or corporative, active or Example 1 Cartography of Arévalo (Ávila, Spain) passive, protagonist of an action identified as a UT. If being an individual, its attributes are their name, gender, religion, citizenship, date of birth and death, etc. Different individual actors gathered for a given period of time with a particular purpose and under determinate conditions can act as corporative actors. Several types of relationships can be set between UT and Ac. A UT can include, link or delimitate another UT. Hence, Inclusion, Delimitation and Link are classes of the UT-UT relation. An Actor always plays an active or passive role within a UT, so Role is the Figure 2. Map 1:50.000 and aerial view transparency of Arevalo and its only class of Ac-UT. Actors can relate to other actors through neighbourhood [17]. UT are identified and labelled as polygons. familial, political, social or economic Ac-Ac relationships.
