Abstract:

The online data platform has become an important carrier for the research of historical figures’ literature and historical materials, which fully protects the literature and explores the intrinsic value of historical materials with the help of digitization and intellectualization, and can provide strong data support as well as convenient literature service for the majority of researchers and history enthusiasts. By combing the related researches on historical figures database and knowledge mapping under digital humanities, this study proposes and analyses the two key problems of historical figures data platform construction, namely, the structuring of heterogeneous literature data from multiple sources and the construction of knowledge mapping under multimodal information. It addresses these problems through data classification and statistics, metadata structuring design, Schema construction, knowledge extraction, and Entity fusion. It then realizes the functions of literature aggregation, retrieval and visualization. It conducts an empirical research with Rosamond Soong Ch’ing-ling as the research object, and designs a data platform construction process, which will provide a practical solution for research in the field of library intelligence.
