Abstract

Abstract:Historical events in the Republic of China era played an important role in the development of China. If digitized, connected, and analyzed within the scope of digital humanities, these historical events will provide a new perspective for the study of humanities. However, it is hard to construct a universal rule for description. This study aims to design an event-based ontology that models, organizes, and represents historical events in an explicit way. Procedures for the construction of the historical event-based ontology are as follows: identifying and selecting typical events based on trigger words, analyzing the constituent elements of historical events, reusing concepts and properties by referencing existing ontology vocabularies, establishing the historical event-based ontology model, and validating the model with actual historical data. The verification results of each type of event and each instance are displayed in visual forms. A representative historical figure associated with several types of events is selected, and the event relationship network is established. With great potential to be further developed, the model will help historical scholars deal with areas such as economic and micro-social history. Future research will input more complete data to enlarge the scale of the model.

民国时期历史事件的知识组织与可视化研究

摘要：民国时期的历史事件对中国的发展起到了重要作用。如果在数字人文的范围内对这些历史事件进行数字化、连接和分析，将为人文研究提供一个新的视角。然而，很难构建一个通用的描述规则。本研究旨在设计一个基于事件的本体，以明确的方式对历史事件进行建模、组织和表示。基于历史事件的本体构建过程如下：基于触发词识别和选择典型事件，分析历史事件的组成元素，通过引用现有本体词汇重用概念和属性，建立基于历史事件本体模型，并用实际历史数据验证模型。每种类型的事件和每种实例的验证结果都以可视化形式显示。选择与几种类型的事件相关联的具有代表性的历史人物，并建立事件关系网络。该模型有很大的发展潜力，将有助于历史学者处理经济和微观社会史等领域。未来的研究将输入更完整的数据，以扩大模型的规模。
