• Folktales as Classifiable Texts (2012-2015). FACT wants to develop software enabling the computer to automatically enrich a corpus of Dutch folktales with metadata such as names, keywords, the genre, a summary and a catalogue number (or folktale type). XML database technology will be used to model all folktale data (both annotations and the text of the tale itself) in one unifying framework. Apart from that, research will focus on the question if automatic corpus analysis can offer new possibilities for the classification of folktales by means of clustering. The classification algorithms developed in the project will be integrated in user-friendly tools to support annotation and exploratory research of the folktale corpus. Using these tools, variability in oral and written transmission can be researched, as well as the pros and cons of human classification and computerized clustering.
• Tunes & Tales (2011-2016). The aim of the project Tunes & Tales is twofold: 1. To design a representation of melodies and tales as (layered) sequences of motifs (building blocks). The core question of this subproject is: what are melodic and narrative motifs and how to represent melodies and tales as layered sequences of motifs in an appropriate and well-defined data structure that is implementable and suitable for further computational processing? A second question is whether it is possible to recognize tunes and tales from oral culture automatically based on the motifs they consist of. 2. To design a model that explains and predicts the variation that occurs to melodies and tales in the process of oral transmission. The project team will consist of two Ph.D. students, a post-doctoral researcher and a scientific programmer.
