ZuantuSet: A Collection of Historical Chinese Visualizations and Illustrations

This UI is beautiful! Probably one of the best collection viewers I have seen. I haven't read the paper yet, but at a quick glance I can see some #IIIF content from tile.loc.gov

arXiv.orgZuantuSet: A Collection of Historical Chinese Visualizations and IllustrationsHistorical visualizations are a valuable resource for studying the history of visualization and inspecting the cultural context where they were created. When investigating historical visualizations, it is essential to consider contributions from different cultural frameworks to gain a comprehensive understanding. While there is extensive research on historical visualizations within the European cultural framework, this work shifts the focus to ancient China, a cultural context that remains underexplored by visualization researchers. To this aim, we propose a semi-automatic pipeline to collect, extract, and label historical Chinese visualizations. Through the pipeline, we curate ZuantuSet, a dataset with over 71K visualizations and 108K illustrations. We analyze distinctive design patterns of historical Chinese visualizations and their potential causes within the context of Chinese history and culture. We illustrate potential usage scenarios for this dataset, summarize the unique challenges and solutions associated with collecting historical Chinese visualizations, and outline future research directions.

With the launch yesterday of the State Library of Victoria's new SLV LAB, I thought it was about time I updated the SLV section of the GLAM Workbench. See: glam-workbench.net/state-libra

I've updated the notebooks, software, and config, and added a JupyterLite version of the 'Fun with IIIF' notebook. #GLAM #IIIF #libraries #digitalHumanities
