Introducing the Impresso Datalab

March 25, 2025 | 10 - 11:30 AM EST

Leveraging an unprecedented corpus of newspaper and radio archives, "Impresso - Media Monitoring of the Past" is an interdisciplinary research project that rethinks and advances computational research on historical media across modalities, time, languages, and national borders. In this seminar, we introduce the "Impresso Datalab", a novel platform for a) programmatic access to historical data and as well b) as machine learning models and annotation services. The Datalab offers access to data and models via a dedicated Python library, and facilitates various types of computational analysis based on Jupyter notebooks.

These webinars are free and open to all. No special software or materials needed. Recordings will be available afterward for asynchronous viewing by all registrants.
