Series: Quantitative Methods in the Humanities and Social Sciences
This book addresses growing demand in the visual humanities for foundational knowledge in data analysis, image processing, and artificial intelligence. Intended for readers without prior technical knowledge, its eighteen chapters introduce key concepts in data science through examples from art history, visual computing, and cloud technologies. For advanced readers, it explores how digital methods enhance our understanding of our cultural past. Focusing on image-based humanities research, the book demonstrates practical applications using open source software such as R, RStudio, and ImageMagick, along with       open data sets from institutions like the MoMA, the Met, and the Rijksmuseum.

Ideal for students, researchers, and professionals in art history, digital humanities, and museum studies, this book bridges the gap between technology and the humanities, making complex digital methods accessible to a broad audience.
