Abstract
Integrating adaptive learning model development into archival processing presents an exciting opportunity to tackle challenges such as labor-intensive manual tasks, lack of uniformity, and ineffective feedback integration. This pilot project explores the practical application of adaptive learning models and natural language processing (NLP) techniques to streamline archival workflows, improve data precision, and consistently implement improved best practices and standards. This research presents an overview of the methodologies and frameworks used, presenting an improved model for automated archival processing. In addition, the research investigates the wider impact of large-scale digital projects on the future of archival science. The capability to quickly process extensive amounts of both typewritten and handwritten text within minutes that traditionally have taken hours, days, or even months. This process is a major breakthrough in the field of archival science. This new development not only makes it easier to handle collections but also changes how we standardize and manage archives, making the process more efficient and accessible for everyone. We can identify patterns, entities, subjects, and policies effectively by accelerating text analysis, interpretation, and refining control terminology. This, in turn, significantly enhances our ability to share information, amplifying the value and impact of the technology. Through rigorous and extensively tested modeling, this system enhances internal data linkage and establishes robust external connections, significantly amplifying our capacity to manage and utilize archival information.
期刊介绍:
Archival Science promotes the development of archival science as an autonomous scientific discipline. The journal covers all aspects of archival science theory, methodology, and practice. Moreover, it investigates different cultural approaches to creation, management and provision of access to archives, records, and data. It also seeks to promote the exchange and comparison of concepts, views and attitudes related to recordkeeping issues around the world.Archival Science''s approach is integrated, interdisciplinary, and intercultural. Its scope encompasses the entire field of recorded process-related information, analyzed in terms of form, structure, and context. To meet its objectives, the journal draws from scientific disciplines that deal with the function of records and the way they are created, preserved, and retrieved; the context in which information is generated, managed, and used; and the social and cultural environment of records creation at different times and places.Covers all aspects of archival science theory, methodology, and practiceInvestigates different cultural approaches to creation, management and provision of access to archives, records, and dataPromotes the exchange and comparison of concepts, views, and attitudes related to recordkeeping issues around the worldAddresses the entire field of recorded process-related information, analyzed in terms of form, structure, and context
