Analyzing Collective Memory and Developing Methods for Knowledge Extraction from Historical Documents 
Kyoto University, Graduate School of Informatics, Associate Professor
Researchers Theme Outline
This research aims for supporting “computational history” by knowledge extraction from historical documents such as news archives or digitalized books. I plan to provide computational framework for modeling topics and their inter-relations in the collections of historical documents to extract useful information. Moreover, I also plan to study collective memory to analyze how the past is remembered and used in a society by large scale text mining.
