ArchML Visions - Leveraging Computational Methods for the Study of Architecture and the City in Historical, Present and Future Contexts

Both the quantitative lens and the content agnostic flexibility of Machine Learning suggest the possibility of circumventing direct formulas by a supercharged probabilistic approach to urban phenomena based on big data. What does that mean to other types of information about heritage, or aesthetic experience? The lack of incorporation of decanted epistemologies from the humanities and certain social sciences in the data, either explicitly modeled or implicit in the design of the datasets used, constitutes not only a challenge but a veritable urgency. Can we devise comprehensive and interdisciplinary research methodologies that consider the city as an object of a longue durée and ensure a plural and rigorous approach?
