商品描述
A new theory and methodology for the application of computer vision methods to the computational analysis of collected, digitized visual materials, called "distant viewing."
Distant Viewing: Computational Exploration of Digital Images presents a new theory and methodology for the computational analysis of digital images, offering a lively, constructive critique of computer vision that you can actually use. What does it mean to say that computer vision "understands" visual inputs? Annotations never capture a whole image. The way digital images convey information requires what researchers Taylor Arnold and Lauren Tilton call "distant viewing"--a play on the well-known term "distant reading" from computational literary analysis.
Recognizing computer vision's limitations, Arnold and Tilton's spirited examination makes the technical exciting by applying distant viewing to the sitcoms Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie, movie posters and other popular forms of advertising, and Dorothea Lange's photography. In the tradition of visual culture studies and computer vision, Distant Viewing's interdisciplinary perspective encompasses film and media studies, visual semiotics, and the sciences to create a playful, accessible guide for an international audience working in digital humanities, data science, media studies, and visual culture studies.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
一種新的理論和方法論,應用於計算分析收集的數位視覺材料,稱為「遠距觀察」。
遠距觀察:數位影像的計算探索 提出了數位影像計算分析的新理論和方法論,對計算機視覺進行了生動且具建設性的批評,這些批評是可以實際應用的。說計算機視覺「理解」視覺輸入意味著什麼?註解永遠無法捕捉整個影像。數位影像傳遞信息的方式需要研究者 Taylor Arnold 和 Lauren Tilton 所稱的「遠距觀察」——這是一個對計算文學分析中著名術語「遠距閱讀」的玩味。
認識到計算機視覺的局限性,Arnold 和 Tilton 的熱情檢視使技術變得令人興奮,通過將遠距觀察應用於情境喜劇 女巫 和 我夢見的珍妮、電影海報及其他流行廣告形式,以及 Dorothea Lange 的攝影作品。在視覺文化研究和計算機視覺的傳統中,遠距觀察 的跨學科視角涵蓋了電影和媒體研究、視覺符號學以及科學,為在數位人文學、數據科學、媒體研究和視覺文化研究領域工作的國際讀者創造了一本有趣且易於接觸的指南。
作者簡介
Taylor Arnold is Associate Professor at the University of Richmond in the interdisciplinary programs in Data Science and Linguistics. A recipient of grants from the NEH and ACLS, Arnold's research focuses on the interdisciplinary study of how messages are communicated through texts and visual media. He has published three books, most recently Layered Lives.
Lauren Tilton is Associate Professor of Digital Humanities in the Department of Rhetoric and Communication Studies at the University of Richmond. Her research combines American Studies and digital humanities to the study of modern visual culture. She is the author of four books, including Layered Lives.
Together, Arnold and Tilton run the Distant Viewing lab at the University of Richmond.
