#DH2025: What are we really measuring when we count words? Artjoms Šeļa, Thomas Haider & Petr Plecháč show how different meters distinctly shape seemingly unrelated feature distributions across Czech, German & Russian #poetry. Their main finding: Mind the meter! #CLS

Neat idea by Jessica Monaco and Mark Algee-Hewitt, at #DH2025, on subgenre mixture within the Gothic novel:

First, train a model to classify text segments into one of eight genres, not including the Gothic (!).

Then, ask the model to classify segments from Gothic novels into those genres in order to obtain characteristic genre mixtures within the Gothic novel.

They obtain radar plots for each Gothic novel that show this mixtures.
