22 oct 2023 año - 119/ About revisions of art historical data

Descripción:

Revision is a practice of systematic and well-organized accumulation, correction and adjustment of information in all data sciences.

In this first post of the series, it is shown that their number increased from 977 in version 2.1.0, to 2,599 in version 2.1.6 where artists are revised for letters [A] to [M], or 50% of the alphabet. The percentage of women artists increased from 5 to 10% (Table 1).
