Statistics professor Taylor Arnold and digital humanities professor Lauren Tilton recently received grant funding for two data science projects. They received a $485,000 grant from the Mellon Foundation for their Distant Viewing Toolkit project, an open-source technology for the computational analysis of visual culture. Arnold and Tilton have also received a nearly $325K grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities to support a project to build open-source software for collecting and analyzing digital images.
Taylor Arnold, professor of data science and statistics, and Lauren Tilton, professor of digital humanities and director of UR’s Center for Liberal Arts and AI, received a grant to support their research to develop AI models that analyze film and television. The funding is part of a larger award from Schmidt Sciences and includes collaboration with colleagues at UC Berkeley and Bowdoin College.
