Machine learning and metadata with AM's Felix Barnes

In the AM Digital Collections Symposium keynote session, Felix Barnes, Publishing Manager at AM, discusses the application of machine learning to enhance metadata creation for archives, focusing on named entity recognition and topic modelling.

These methods, applied to British Foreign Office files contained in AM's collection Apartheid South Africa, 1948-1994, published using Quartex, increase discoverability by automating data extraction for indexing and generating more detailed metadata for researchers, improving efficiency and accuracy.
