About us
SOCKS is a large, multi-disciplinary effort funded by the National Science Foundation, that revolves around stories as an essential part of how people comprehend, explain, predict, and seek to navigate the world. SOCKS supports the Digital Humanities by developing a powerful approach to quantifying both individual stories and ecologies of stories through massive data collection, natural language processing, and large language models-computer-based encodings of the meaningful connections between words and phrases.

-Instrument Building - Instruments for Computational Humanities and Social Science
