Introduction For example, suppose you create a content type called “Organization” in Drupal and create content items for “The University of Tokyo” and “Kyoto University.” At this point, assume that IDs from the Research Organization Registry (ROR) are also registered as follows. Title ID The University of Tokyo 057zh3y96 Kyoto University 02kpeqv85 Now, let’s try referencing this content from another content type (for example, a “Researcher” content type) using an affiliation field. When you type something like “University,” the two registered content items are displayed as shown below. ...

Overview I am sharing the results of querying GPT-4 about ALTO (Analyzed Layout and Text Object) XML. https://www.loc.gov/standards/alto/ Required Elements ALTO (Analyzed Layout and Text Object) XML is an XML schema for representing OCR-generated text and its layout. Its structure is very flexible, with many elements and attributes, but the required elements are limited. The simplest form of ALTO XML has the following hierarchical structure: <alto>: The root element. It must have @xmlns and @xmlns:xsi attributes indicating the version of the ALTO XML schema. It must also have two child elements: <Description> and <Layout>. ...
