Consider the following Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) tree, after some number ofsteps of running MCTS, where the numbers next to the nodes represent (w​k​/n​k​), andempty spots at the bottom of the tree are places nodes haven't been added yet:

Among optimal uninformed search algorithms, the main drawback of iterative deepeningsearch (IDS) compared to breadth-first search (BFS) is clearly the overhead in thenumber of nodes it expands. While we showed that IDS's runtime is asymptoticallyequivalent to BFS at O(b​d​), where b is the branching factor and d is the depth of theoptimal solution, it clearly expands more nodes in practice than BFS.

[i]t may be guessed that the poorer part of the population, no longer receiving a theoric payment, did not attend the theatre in great number and that this had some effect on the nature of the plays written.'

If so, it may not be so much the happy endings which represent the dreams of middle-class Athenians as the preceding complications which represent their nightmares.

n the middle and lower classes young men and girls knew more about each other, had definite ideas about whom they wanted to marry, and had a habit of getting their own way

there was in fifth- and fourth-century Athens at least an ideal of mutual satisfaction in marriage which we can recognize as being similar to our own ideal.

The arranged marriages which others try to bring about in this play must have been a familiar part of the audience's experience. But they clearly found it more satisfying to see a love match being brought about - and I hope it is clear by now that I think experience must also have made them familiar with such love matches, or at least with young men who wanted to marry for love.

No more in Dyskolos than in Samia or Adelphoe do we learn anything about the feelings of the girl in question towards the young man.

Smikrines has been presented to us in the prologue as the most wicked man on earth (116-17), while Chairestratos' character was said to be very good (125). That suggests that his argument would have been generally accepted as admirable and humane.

On the other hand, Menander is selective in what he chooses to portray: you would never guess from Dyskolos that there was a military garrison stationed at Phyle at the time.1

rue to life in the sense that they could plausibly have been uttered by a real-life Athenian who found himself in the situation depicted in the play

As Malinowski discovered in his work on the incest taboo, the conflict between social practices and cultural ideals and norms is perhaps nowhere so dramatic as in the realm of sexuality'

I shall try to suggest that the notion of marrying for love was not seen as a comic absurdity in the time of Menander, and I shall argue that New Comedy supports my suggestion.

Walcot (1987) takes it for granted that Sostratos' behaviour is comically absurd, since 'the purpose of marriage for a Greek was to have and to rear legitimate children...rather than to gratify the emotional needs of either husband or wife' (p. 6),

Menander's comedies show us the dreams of the middle- class male Athenian citizens who went to watch them. If she was right, the comedies at least tell us something about Menander's audience, even if we cannot guess how often their dreams came true.

Other plays too show unmarried Athenian men in love with women who are known or believed to be of citizen birth:

He certainly does not regard such a love as a necessary basis for marriage, since he was planning to marry his son to the girl next door in any case. But he accepts it as natural that the boy has fallen in love with a citizen girl and wants to marry her

n both cases the young man who deflowered the girl loves her and is keen to marry her

More frequently in Plautus and Terence the heroine, if of respectable parentage, has been violated before the opening of the drama (Aulularia, Adelphoe), or she is a foreigner, a courtesan, or a slave girl'

question all existing cultural categories and labels; use computation to create alternative maps of culture.

We use digital image processing to automatically measure properties of visual artifacts. This allows for better descriptions of cultural artifacts and processes than language alone.

We borrow ideas from information visualization, media design, interfaces of media editing applications, media art, and digital art.

In addition to digital humanities, these techniques can be also used in cinema studies, game studies, media studies, ethnography, exhibition design, sociology, anthropology, and other fields.

so they can be used by researchers and students without technical backgrounds?

These spatial impulses took a deeper hold with the influx of digital tools. Developed in the 1960s by the Canada Land Inventory, GIS was adapted for use in the social scientists and humanities.

By “turning” we propose a backwards glance at the reasons why travelers from so many disciplines came to be here, fixated upon landscape, together.

The maps pans and zooms. This seems obvious, but it is the most remarkable thing about the map. The ability of the map to change its scale, from the building to the globe (or a Mercator projection of the globe) is the most humanistic thing about this map, because it lets us think at several different scales

 After all, the tools of the digital allow us to zoom in as well as zoom out. It is how we do this zooming that will matter in the long term.

Community-Driven Archives

historic records showcasing diversity may not exist at all.

People who have experienced trauma or suffered atrocities may not want their stories preserved in an archive at all, and they have the right to be forgotten

It’s important for all public archives to maintain accountability by preserving an accurate record of the past, even if that record doesn’t paint the institution in the best light.

Because social responsibility underlies all professional activities of archivists, the archival profession solidified it as one of SAA’s core values of archivists.

Across several registers, the emerging neoliberal state begins to adopt the Rule of Modularity

In fact, the urban center of Detroit was more segregated by the 1980s than in previous decades, reflecting a different inflection of the programmer’s vision of the “easy removal” or containment of a troubling part. Whole areas of the city might be rendered orthogonal and disposable (also think post-Katrina New Orleans), and the urban black poor were increasingly isolated in “deteriorating city centers”

It is not much of a stretch to layer these traits over the core tenets of post-Fordism

Very few audiences who care about one lens have much patience or tolerance for the other.

UNIX was originally written in assembly language, but after Thompson’s colleague Dennis Ritchie developed the C programming language in 1972, Thompson rewrote UNIX in that language.

It is largely accurate, if also a generalization, to say that many in the membership of the ASA treat computation within the humanities with some level of suspicion, perceiving it to be complicit with the corporatization of higher education or as primarily technological rather than scholarly.

Our current challenge is how we represent varying representations of blackness found in the census in a database. How do we represent, technologically, the identification of the same person as West Indian, Mulatto, or black?

If, indeed, we are beginning to construct a digital canon that weighs content and technological choices equally, then it is crucial for digital humanists to theorize the technological with the same rigor as we theorize the content.

While I, along with many others, reject Pannapacker’s representation of key digital humanities scholars as the cool kids at the high-school lunch table, the perception of the exclusionary world of digital humanities is reinforced by a perception of limited projects.

A collection should be sustainable over time. In particular, digital collections built with special funding should have a plan for their continued usability beyond the funded period.

guidance for interoperability with large-scale, emerging national and international digital library programs like the NSDL will require a framework with greater scope and flexibility

digital libraries are seen as systems that incorporate not only digital content, but also many value-added services, ranging from search and discovery utilities, to browse and interpretative interfaces, to specialized preservation and dissemination protocols.

Digital collections are no longer seen simply as self-contained, single-purpose entities. Practitioners now recognize the potential of digital collections to function as components and building blocks that can be reused by many different groups and upon which many kinds of advanced digital library services may be built.

omputer age introduces its correlate-the database. Many new media objects do not tell stories; they do not have a beginning or end; in fact, they do not have any development, thematically, formally, or otherwise that would organize their elements into a sequence. Instead, they are collections of individual items, with every item possessing the same significance as any other.
