Modern technology, such as digitization and multi-spectral imaging, is aiding papyrologists in all of these efforts.\n\nTexts on display are some of the highlights of the collection. They include a wonderful drawing of an elephant, a letter from a newly enlisted soldier to his mother, and, of course, some pages of the oldest manuscript with letters of St. Paul (one of the most famous texts of the collection).\n\nIn its 90-year history, the University of Michigan Papyrus Collection has trained more students and scholars in the field of papyrology than any other institution in North America. Founded by the visionary Francis W. Kelsey, the Papyrus Collection has been the training ground for papyrologists from around the world and home to many great resident scholars, such as Herbert and Louise Youtie, Ludwig Koenen, and Traianos Gagos, who died on April 26, 2010.\n\nPapyrology is the field of scholarship that deciphers and studies the texts written \u2013primarily on papyrus\u2013 by people living in the ancient Mediterranean world between 2,500 BCE and 1,000 CE. Most of these texts are found in Egypt where the climate is dry enough to preserve this fragile material.

But how well does this work in practice?\n\nWe explored this question of usability, utility and value of topic modeling by conducting user studies of collections of digital books (HathiTrust) and images (History of Art, etc.) from UM and Yale. We first focused on measuring the coherence, meaning, and interpretability of learned topics, and from this developed a new method to score topic coherence. After building topics into user interfaces for books and images, and developing test scenarios, we launched a large-scale study (upwards of 700 users) to assess the value of these topics to end-users. The study was conducted using unmoderated user testing software, obviating the presence of anyone other than the user.\n\nWe will present preliminary results from that work, and will summarize potential opportunities\u2013along with some known limitations\u2013presented by topic modeling in digital libraries.\n\nZingerman's refreshments provided!", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"3495-920763@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/3495", "building_id":"1000181", "building_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "campus_maps_id":"65", "room":"Gallery in Room 100", "location_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":[], "website":"http:\/\/www.lib.umich.edu\/gallery\/events\/topicmodeling", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"University Library", "group_id":"1186", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/UMichLibrary\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":920763 } , "3471-916190": { "datetime_modified":"20100902T202613", "datetime_start":"20101007T090000", "datetime_end":"20101007T170000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2010-10-07", "date_end":"2010-10-07", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"17:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Lecture on the Weather", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Lecture on the Weather: John Cage Installation", "event_subtitle":"John Cage Installation", "event_type":"Exhibition", "event_type_id":"7", "description":"This multi-media stage work by John Cage, based on the texts of Henry David Thoreau, brings together speech, music, film, lighting, and a weather soundscape to form a softly political piece as relevant today as the year it was written. \n\nCage (1912-1992) was well known as an experimental composer, philosopher, writer, and visual artist.

They are subtle innovators who respect the past but make their own tunes. The Steel Wheels fit among musicians like Langhorne Slim, Gillian Welch, or Adrienne Young and Little Sadie (with whom they've shared the stage) \u2013- deft musicians making a name for themselves by creating their own particular permutations of traditional forms. Yet they also share much with new Americana favorites like the Avett Brothers or Old Crow Medicine Show, with charisma that causes toes to tap and energy to break out. The Steel Wheels count among their fans former Statler Brother Jimmy Fortune and indie folk favorites Over the Rhine, as well as Robin and Linda Williams, who sing harmony on the new Wheels' album, \"Red Wing.\" The album's title track, a sweetly lyrical modification of the old-time tune of the same name, gives a good idea of what this band is about. The Steel Wheels did a great show at the Circus in May during their all-bicycle tour of Michigan, and they're an Americana band on a rapid rise.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"2713-921046@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/2713", "building_id":"", "building_name":"", "campus_maps_id":"", "room":"", "location_name":null, "has_livestream":0, "cost":"General Admission $12.50, Reserved $19.50.", "tags":["music"], "website":"http:\/\/www.mutotix.com", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Michigan Union Ticket Office (MUTO)", "group_id":"1053", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":921046 } , "3696-911690": { "datetime_modified":"20101111T175633", "datetime_start":"20101007T203000", "datetime_end":"20101007T230000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2010-10-07", "date_end":"2010-10-07", "time_start":"20:30:00", "time_end":"23:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Poetry Slam", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Poetry Slam: I slam therefore I am", "event_subtitle":"I slam therefore I am", "event_type":"Performance", "event_type_id":"15", "description":"Doors open at 8:30, and the event starts PROMPTLY at 9pm.\n\nCost is $5 per person.\n\nThere is an OPEN MIC session from 9-9:30pm where poets showcase their skills without being judged.\n\nThe SLAM is a competition wherein 7 poets have 3 minutes to give the crowd their best work.
