Information extraction methods—such as named entity recognition, coreference resolution, or relation extraction—aim to produce structured data from unstructured or semi-structured sources like text. These structured outputs can then be used for various purposes, including database creation, ontology population, or automated reasoning. In the context of research in the humanities and social sciences (HSS), applying these methods is particularly valuable, especially when considering large-scale semantic annotation of corpora, thereby facilitating their critical study.

In the context of Digital Humanities as a hybrid research field, we advocate for a genuinely interdisciplinary dialogue between the humanities and computer science—moving beyond mere tool application or engineering service—to promote the co-construction of methods, models, and interpretations, fostering a virtuous cycle grounded in epistemological collaboration, methodological reflexivity, and mutual disciplinary recognition.
