摘要

計算思維是一套邏輯思考模式及解決問題的基本框架，數位人文根基於資訊科技與人文議題的交會與融合。本文基於跨領域研究經驗的累積，論述計算思維概念，並以數位框架的觀點，嘗試歸納資料計算對於人文研究的意涵，並以部分國內研究案例具體情境，對應抽象意涵的實際展現，提供數位人文共同成長的參照與省思。本文提出資料計算形塑數位人文研究典範的本質特徵，包括：規模、維度、智能、視覺呈現、脈絡連結、獨立檢驗、跨越框架基礎等，協助年輕世代學者建立跨領域合作的路徑參照，也與相關學術社群共同歸納省思。數位人文跨領域研究可以從互動合作的物理變化到交融協作的化學變化，期待有志之士齊心協力、共同開創。

Computational thinking is a cognitive framework of logical deduction and problem solving. Digital humanities has been rooted on the intersection and fusion of digital technology and humanity study. Based on accumulated experiences in interdisciplinary research, this paper depicts computational thinking and attempts to characterize research implications of data computation on humanities study. The abstract implications are manifested by actual research contexts of several domestic case studies, so as to provide reference and contemplation for the collective growth of digital humanities. Essential characteristics of digital humanities research paradigm inferred by the data computation model include: scale, dimension, intelligence, visualization, contextualization, independent validation, and common grounding. These characterization may help establish transdisciplinary pathways for younger generation scholars and provide further consideration with the research community. Transdisciplinary digital humanities research entails both physical changes of collaborative interaction and chemical changes of creative fusion. It is hoped that more will join the endeavor and begin a great journey of new adventure.
