| Summary: | The traditional approach to biographical profiling, predominantly reliant on limited and
fragmented datasets, has frequently resulted in superficial personality understandings. This is
largely due to an overemphasis on official records and notable events, neglecting the rich tapestry
of everyday experiences and personal interactions that significantly shape personalities. To address
this shortcoming, this article introduces a multi-disciplinary methodology, The Holistic Archival
Personality Profiling Model (HAPPM), which integrates a diverse array of archival materials,
including personal correspondences, social media footprints, and family memorabilia. This
approach involves digitizing various data forms, including handwritten documents, into machine-readable text, and then semantically classifying this data with biotags, chronotags, and geotags for
organization within specific spatial and temporal contexts. Such comprehensive data aggregation
establishes a more accurate "space-time continuum" for individuals, enhancing our understanding
of their lives. The innovative aspect of HAPPM is the utilization of large language models to
"converse" with the data, facilitating a more holistic representation of personalities. Preliminary
results from applying HAPPM have shown its efficacy in uncovering previously unknown aspects
of individual lives, offering insights into personal beliefs, daily routines, and social interactions.
This has been validated through comparative analysis with existing biographical data, revealing a
more complete and nuanced understanding of personalities. Therefore, HAPPM marks a
significant advancement in personality profiling, capturing not only the grandiose but also the
mundane, and offering a comprehensive tool for researchers and historians to explore the full
spectrum of human experience |
