        Subject: Computational Humanities Research 2025 | Call for Papers

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the 2025 edition of the
Computational Humanities Research Conference (CHR 2025), which will take place
on December 9–12, 2025, at the Luxembourg Centre for Contemporary and Digital
History (C²DH) at the University of Luxembourg.

In recent years, the arts and humanities have seen a significant increase in the
use of computational, statistical, and mathematical approaches. This kind of
research is distinguished by its reliance on formal methods and the development
of explicit, computational models—ranging from quantitative and statistical
techniques to broader computational methods for processing and analyzing data,
as well as theoretical reflections on these approaches.

Despite the growing prominence of this field, many scholars still struggle to
find suitable venues where they can present and publish computational work while
maintaining a strong connection to traditional humanities inquiry. This is
precisely the gap that the CHR conference seeks to address.

More specifically, the conference has two key goals:

- Building an inclusive community of researchers who apply computational and
quantitative methods to humanities data in all its forms. We see this community
as complementary to the broader digital humanities landscape and actively
encourage participation from scholars with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and
identities—including those from underrepresented groups, different academic
paths, and anyone bringing fresh perspectives to computational humanities.
- Promoting good research practices by sharing "research stories." This includes
fostering transparency and reproducibility through open code and data,
supporting pre-registered research designs to clarify theoretical frameworks and
methodologies, and rethinking peer review processes to better accommodate
interdisciplinary work that blends computational methods with humanities-driven
questions.

The deadline for full paper submissions is July 18, 2025. For further details,
please consult the full Call for Papers [here.](https://2025.computational-
humanities-research.org/cfp/)

If you have any questions, special requirements, or concerns, feel free to reach
out to the organizers at [pc@computational-humanities-
research.org](https://mailto:pc@computational-humanities-research.org/) or
engage with us on the [Discourse forum](https://discourse.computational-
humanities-research.org/).

Kind regards,

The Programme Chairs:
Taylor Arnold
