[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP] 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 (TBA) 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.

Caution: This email was sent from someone outside of the University of Lethbridge. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you know they are safe. Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Dear all, It is a great pleasure to invite you to the “Infrastructural Interventions<https://cistudies.org/events/digital-humanities-critical-infrastructure-stu…>” workshop (21 and 22 June 2021) organised by King’s Digital Lab, King’s Department of Digital Humanities, and the Critical Infrastructures Studies Collective (cistudies.org<http://cistudies.org>). The first event in the Digital Humanities & Critical Infrastructure Studies Workshop Series brings together leading thinkers in Digital Humanities and Social Sciences to critically interrogate the nature and fragility of infrastructure at individual, social, and planetary scales and reconfigure their nature from social justice, feminist and decolonial perspectives. The following questions will guide us through the discussion: How, precisely, did our contemporary digital infrastructure evolve? How are different actors challenging, contesting and creating alternatives to official data infrastructures? How can DH infrastructure be informed by an analysis of power—and even actively challenge existing power imbalances? How might DH infrastructure reject the hierarchical and other divisions that currently structure DH work? How can digital humanists reimagine and rebuild the world differently through infrastructure? Registration for this event is open through the Eventbrite here<https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/infrastructural-interventions-tickets-152839…>. The workshop will take place on the Microsoft Teams platform. (How to join a Teams meeting.<https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/join-a-teams-meeting-078e9868-f1…>) If you have any questions about the event, please don’t hesitate to contact the CIS collective: contact(a)cistudies.org<mailto:contact@cistudies.org>. Please see the program and abstracts on the Critical Infrastructures Studies.org <https://cistudies.org/events/digital-humanities-critical-infrastructure-stu…> website. Check out also a new YouTube channel of CIstudies.org Initiative<https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUHRYYlVX7SpJe8zXqtdkQg/featured>! In the coming weeks, we will be publishing videos of infrastructure-focused Digital Humanities projects. I’m looking forward to seeing you at the event!
