Estimados compañeros,
Os hacemos llegar un curso de verano organizado por el Laboratorio de Humanidades Digitales de la UNED<https://linhd.uned.es/>. El curso lleva por título Creación de un proyecto en Humanidades Digitales basado en el análisis de textos: modelado y procesamiento<https://extension.uned.es/actividad/idactividad/24581> y se celebrará del 28 al 30 de junio. Puede realizarse presencialmente o en línea (en directo o en diferido), tiene una duración de 20 horas y será eminentemente práctico.
La investigación en Humanidades Digitales no ha dejado de crecer en los últimos años y son cada vez más los proyectos de historiadores, filólogos, o antropólogos que utilizan la tecnología para el análisis de corpus literarios en busca de patrones, la construcción de mapas digitales interactivos para una mejor visualización de los resultados de sus investigaciones, o la geolocalización de enclaves a los que se añaden capas de información multimedia, entre otras muchas posibilidades.
Los humanistas digitales tienen un futuro prometedor en un área en crecimiento en el que se requieren perfiles profesionales mixtos y flexibles, capaces de organizar y etiquetar objetos digitales; así como gestionar su visualización y preservación en un entorno digital. Sin embargo, para desarrollar la investigación en esta área se ha de disponer de ciertos conocimientos técnicos tales como los que se abordan en el curso que os presentamos.
El objetivo del mismo es diseñar un proyecto de humanidades digitales, desde el modelado del dominio hasta la creación de resultados y su diseminación, haciendo uso de lenguajes de programación, técnicas de modelado y visualización provenientes del mundo de la inteligencia artificial. Comenzaremos con una aproximación al mundo de las Humanidades Digitales y las problemáticas que surgen para el análisis de textos. Después, nos acercaremos a las metodologías y técnicas para resolver esos problemas mediante el modelado semántico y la perspectiva de los datos enlazados y lenguajes de marcas. Asimismo, se presentarán nuevos paradigmas computacionales relacionados con la Inteligencia Artificial como el procesamiento de textos, la estilometría, el deep learning, etc., y su aplicación. Para finalizar, se representarán los resultados obtenidos.
Podéis obtener más información sobre el mismo y matricularos en este enlace.<https://www.fundacion.uned.es/actividad/idactividad/24581>

Next generation careers in and from Digital Humanities
15 July 2021
Free to register at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/next-generation-careers-in-and-from-digital-…<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.event…>
The UK-Ireland Digital Humanities Network is an AHRC/IRC-funded project to undertake research and consultation towards the implementation of a permanent Digital Humanities association for the UK and Ireland. A key focus for the network is the question of career development in Digital Humanities, and the options that are available to postgraduate students, early career researchers, and aspiring research software engineers (RSEs) in particular. An opening panel session will present the experiences of digital humanists who have gone on to a wide variety of careers, from academia to the creative industries, cultural heritage and the technology sector. This will be followed by an open discussion exploring the kinds of support and guidance that would make a difference to the career paths of Digital Humanities ECRs and RSEs, including industry placements, training, mentoring and advocacy. This conversation will feed into a discussion paper on next-generation careers in and from Digital Humanities.

Digital Classicist London SeminarFriday June 25, 2021, 17:00 (UK time/UTC+1)
Chiara Palladino (Furman) & Tariq Yousef (Leipzig)We want to learn all languages! Applications of translation alignment in digital environments
Live at https://youtu.be/R2Ms6yAMZss
In this seminar, we will introduce the topic of translation technologies, with particular regard to text and translation alignment, one of the most important and complex tasks of NLP. Then, we will present Ugarit (http://ugarit.ialigner.com/<https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLU…>), a web-based tool for manual and automatic alignment of parallel corpora. Conceived as a Citizen Science project to collect training data for the implementation of statistical machine translation of Ancient Greek, Persian, and English, Ugarit has now become one of the most used digital environments for the manual alignment of texts in underrepresented and historical languages. Currently, Ugarit hosts corpora in 43 languages, and has been widely used in scholarly projects for the study of Armenian, Persian, Arabic, Ancient Greek, Latin, Portuguese, and Egyptian. It has also been successfully applied in language teaching to facilitate a direct approach to original texts through the scaffolding provided by the systematic comparison with translations.
While most translation technologies are limited to the coverage of modern, widely indexed languages like English, Ugarit introduces a new way of working with languages that is based on manual alignment between parallel texts: with the systematic support of translations in a known language, users can create datasets of aligned pairs to support language learning for themselves, study the reception of a particular text, or to provide alignments for other readers. Moreover, users contribute training data for the implementation of statistical machine translation for underrepresented languages, which has been tested for Persian and Ancient Greek. The database of Ugarit can also be visualized and queried to investigate relationships across languages that have not been directly aligned: by using the underlying graph database, we can visualize connections between words in two different languages by using a third language as a bridge, with which both languages have been aligned, and investigate broader phenomena such as word frequency across languages and common tendencies in translations.
ALL WELCOME

Call for Papers - SUMAC 2021
The 3rd workshop on Structuring and Understanding of Multimedia heritAge Contents
In conjunction with ACM Multimedia 2021, 20 - 24 October 2020, Chengdu, China
Workshop: https://sumac-workshops.github.io/2021/
Conference: https://2021.acmmm.org
Aims and scope
The digitization of large quantities of analogue data and the massive production of born-digital
documents for many years now provide us with large volumes of varied multimedia data
(images, maps, text, video, multi-sensor data, etc.), an important feature of which is that they
are cross-domain. "Cross-domain" reflects the fact that these data may have been acquired
in very different conditions: different acquisition systems, times and points of view. These
data represent an extremely rich heritage that can be exploited in a wide variety of fields, from
Social Sciences and Humanities to land use and territorial policies, including smart city, urban
planning, smart tourism and culture, creative media and entertainment. In terms of research
in computer science, they address challenging problems related to the diversity and volume
of the media across time, the variety of content descriptors (potentially including the time
dimension), the veracity of the data, and the different user needs with respect to engaging with
this rich material and the extraction of value out of the data. These challenges are reflected
in various research topics such as multimodal and mixed media search, automatic content
analysis, multimedia linking and recommendation, and big data analysis and visualization,
where scientific bottlenecks may be exacerbated by the time dimension, which also provides
topics of interest such as multimodal time series analysis.
The objective of the third edition of this workshop is to present and discuss the latest and
most significant trends in the analysis, structuring and understanding of multimedia contents
dedicated to the valorization of heritage, with the emphasis on enabling access to the big
data of the past. We welcome research contributions for the following (but not limited to) topics:
* Multimedia and cross-domain data interlinking and recommendation
* Dating and spatialization of historical data
* Mixed media data access and indexing
* Deep learning in adverse conditions (transfer learning, learning with side information,etc.)
* Multi-modal time series analysis, evolution modeling
* Multi-modal & multi-temporal data rendering
* Heritage - Building Information Modeling, Art
* HCI / Interfaces for large-scale datasets
* Smart digitization of massive quantities of data
* Bench-marking, Open Data Movement
* Generative modeling of cultural heritage
Important dates
* Paper submission: 30 July 2021 (11:59 p.m. AoE)
* Author acceptance notification: 26 August 2021
* Camera-Ready: 2 September 2021
* Workshop date: 20 or 24 October 2021
Keynote speakers
Jon Hardeberg (Professor at the Computer Science Department of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway): talk on Analyzing CHANGE in cultural heritage objects through images.
Mathieu Aubry (Senior researcher, Imagine team, LIGM lab, Ecole des Ponts ParisTech, France): talk on Deep Learning for Historical Data Analysis.
Submission guidelines
Submission format. All submissions must be original work not under review at any other
workshop, conference, or journal. The workshop will accept papers describing completed work
as well as work in progress. One submission format is accepted: full paper, which must follow
the formatting guidelines of the main conference ACM MM 2021. Full papers should be from 6 to
8 pages (plus 2 additional pages for the references), encoded as PDF and using the ACM Article
Template. For paper guidelines, please visit: https://2021.acmmm.org/regular-papers .

A reminder to all Digital Medievalists: Part II of the world-wide Digital Medievalist symposium takes place next week, June 11 (AEST)
Languages, Texts, Environments: Digital Transformations in our Past, Present and Future
Part II of the global conference series The Past, Present and Future of Digital Medieval Studies: A Global Digital Medievalist Symposium<https://digitalmedievalist.wordpress.com/the-past-present-and-future-of-dig…>, the Asia and Oceania panel offers a fresh perspective for digital medievalists, since the Middle Ages and the scheme of historical periodisation that applies to Europe has little relevance to the historical timelines which unfolded in Asia and the region of Oceania. Spanning the eastern and western hemispheres, the nations of Asia and the islands of Oceania have divergent histories and encompass an incredibly diverse mix of cultures. This panel seeks to offer a small taste of activities undertaken in the sphere of scholarship broadly termed digital humanities, and to introduce new topics and questions to our Digital Medievalist audience.
The panel is divided into four one-hour sessions:
Title: Archiving Indigenous Australia:
(AEST):13:00 - 14:00, (BST):04:00 - 05:00, (CEST):05:00 - 06:00, (EDT):23:00 - 24:00
Title: Engaging Chinese Literature
(AEST):14:15 - 15:15, (BST): 05:15 - 06:15, (CEST): 06:15 - 07:15, (EDT):24:15 - 01:15
Title: Reading Indian and Japanese Scripts
(AEST): 15:30 - 16:30, (BST): 06:30 - 07:30, (CEST): 07:30 - 08:30, (EDT):01:30 - 02:30
Title: Virtual Reconstruction & Discussion
(AEST) 17:00 - 18:30, (BST): 08:00 - 09:30, (CEST):09:00 - 10:30, (EDT):03:00 - 04:30
