Premièrement, j’ai toujours été fasciné par l’histoire militaire et l’armée en général. L’expression de puissance nationale et de dissuasion a quelque chose de mystique que je trouve fascinant, notamment dans son évolution à travers les âges. La Révolution française et le Premier Empire sont deux périodes que j’apprécie plus particulièrement. L’épopée impériale est pour moi une période faste et unique.

  • A Simple Set of Rules for Characters and Place Recognition in French Novels
    TECHNOLOGY REPOrt published: 31 March 2017 doi: 10.3389/fdigh.2017.00006 A Simple Set of Rules for Characters and Place Recognition in French Novels Cyril Bornet* and Frédéric Kaplan Digital Humanities Laboratory, DHI, CDH, EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland This article describes a simple unsupervised system for automatic extraction and clas- sification of named entities in French novels. The solution presented combines a set of different standalone classifiers within a meta-recognition system. The system is tested on 35 classic French novels, representing 5 million words and 3,700 names of people and places. The results demonstrate that although none of the standalone methods clearly outperforms the others, their combined classification offers a robust solution in this context. Keywords: text processing, named entity recognition, NER, literature, French, distant reading Edited by: 1.
