Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Good evening/day, As many in the Global DH community know, there was a mass shooting on Michigan State University’s campus last night. The Global DH Symposium <https://msuglobaldh.org/> is based out of MSU and the planning team includes many members who are MSU students and staff. We have also been looking forward to holding an in person event at the MSU Libraries on March 17 for the first time since 2019. As we grieve with our MSU community, we are looking ahead to the Symposium next month, especially to the in-person event at the MSU Libraries on March 17. We feel it is more important than ever to bring this community together. In the coming weeks, the planning committee will work towards creating as safe, healing, and supportive event as possible. Sincerely, Kristen Mapes, on behalf of the Global DH Symposium Planning Committee Kristen Mapes Assistant Director of Digital Humanities, College of Arts & Letters Michigan State University East Lansing MI kmapes(a)msu.edu

3rd CfP 4th workshop on Resources for African Indigenous Language (RAIL) @ EACL

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. Third call for papers Fourth workshop on Resources for African Indigenous Language (RAIL) https://bit.ly/rail2023 Note: deadline extension and submission system information The 4th RAIL (Resources for African Indigenous* Languages) workshop will be co-located with EACL 2023 in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The Resources for African Indigenous Languages (RAIL) workshop is an interdisciplinary platform for researchers working on resources (data collections, tools, etc.) specifically targeted towards African indigenous languages. In particular, it aims to create the conditions for the emergence of a scientific community of practice that focuses on data, as well as computational linguistic tools specifically designed for or applied to indigenous languages found in Africa. Previous workshops showed that the presented problems (and solutions) are not only applicable to African languages. Many issues are also relevant to other low-resource languages, such as different scripts and properties like tone. As such, these languages share similar challenges. This allows for researchers working on these languages with such properties (including non-African languages) to learn from each other, especially on issues pertaining to language resource development. The RAIL workshop has several aims. First, it brings together researchers working on African indigenous languages, forming a community of practice for people working on indigenous languages. Second, the workshop aims to reveal currently unknown or unpublished existing resources (corpora, NLP tools, and applications), resulting in a better overview of the current state-of-the-art, and also allows for discussions on novel, desired resources for future research in this area. Third, it enhances sharing of knowledge on the development of low-resource languages. Finally, it enables discussions on how to improve the quality as well as availability of the resources. The workshop has “Impact of impairments on language resources” as its theme, but submissions on any topic related to properties of African indigenous languages (including non-African languages) may be accepted. Suggested topics include (but are not limited to) the following: Digital representations of linguistic structures Descriptions of corpora or other data sets of African indigenous languages Building resources for (under resourced) African indigenous languages Developing and using African indigenous languages in the digital age Effectiveness of digital technologies for the development of African indigenous languages Revealing unknown or unpublished existing resources for African indigenous languages Developing desired resources for African indigenous languages Improving quality, availability and accessibility of African indigenous language resources *: The term indigenous languages used in the RAIL workshop is intended to refer to non-colonial languages (in this case those used in Africa). In no way is this term used to cause any harm or discomfort to anyone. Many of these languages were or are still marginalised, and the aim of the workshop is to bring attention to the creation, curation, and development of resources for these languages in Africa. Submission requirements: We invite papers on original, unpublished work related to the topics of the workshop. Submissions, presenting completed work, may consist of up to eight (8) pages of content plus additional pages of references. The final camera-ready version of accepted long papers are allowed one additional page of content (so up to 9 pages) so that reviewers’ feedback can be incorporated. Submissions need to use the EACL stylesheets. These can be found at https://2023.eacl.org/calls/styles. Submission is electronic in PDF through the START system which can be found at https://softconf.com/eacl2023/RAIL2023. Reviewing is double-blind, so make sure to anonymize your submission (e.g., do not provide author names, affiliations, project names, etc.) Limit the amount of self citations (anonymized citations should not be used). Accepted papers will be published in the ACL workshop proceedings. Please make sure you also go through the responsible NLP checklist (https://aclrollingreview.org/responsibleNLPresearch/). Also, submissions should have a section titled “Limitations” (as described in the stylesheets). Authors are also encouraged to include an explicit ethics statement.

[CFP] Second International Workshop on Multisensory Data & Knowledge @ TheWebConf 2023
by Albert Meroño Peñuela 11 Jan '23

11 Jan '23

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. Call for Papers Second International Workshop on Multisensory Data & Knowledge in conjunction with TheWebConf 2023 https://odeuropa.github.io/mdk/ Important dates: - Workshop papers submissions - 6 February, 2023 - 23:59 AOE - Notification - 6 March, 2023 - Camera Ready Submission - 20 March, 2023 - Workshop Day - 1 or 2 May, 2023 Motivations: Our senses are the gateways to our memories and emotions. However, they are under-represented in language technology and semantic web research. In this workshop, two recently awarded H2020 projects, Odeuropa and Polifonia, are teaming up to advance our understanding of how smells and music are represented in texts and structured data. The topics we want to address revolve around extracting references to smells, music, context, and visual information from text as well as relevant data describing their cultural, historical and political context, and model them in the form of interlinked knowledge graphs. This research has a strong interdisciplinary character, hence the workshop has the potential to attract researchers from diverse disciplines from both social sciences and humanities and computer science. Its potential impact is significant to many application areas including: preservation and valorisation of cultural heritage, data-driven policy making in cultural heritage, urban planning, artistic performances, applications for scholars in musicology and history, applications for museums, innovation in teaching, maintenance and exploitation of large catalogues, archives and libraries. We aim at creating a reference venue where new ideas and results can be shared and lead the way towards a technological and cultural shift in how we understand and experience our cultural heritage. Topics of interest: The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Olfactory, musical and visual information extraction from text Olfactory, musical and visual knowledge representation Resources for olfactory, musical and visual knowledge Extraction of socio-cultural and historical context information from text Extraction of time, space, events, people and (musical, olfactory and visual) artifacts from text Knowledge graphs integrating olfactory, musical and visual knowledge Multilingual text corpora on musical and olfactory heritage Automatic and semi-automatic generation of language descriptions of sensory experience Methods and approaches to represent degrees of sensorial experiences (e.g. intensity, dissipation) Applications for teaching/training/valorisation of multisensory data and knowledge Submission: We solicit submissions of long and short papers covering a wide range of NLP and semantic web topics dealing with the extraction and analysis of information from multisensory data. Papers presenting collaborations among researchers with different backgrounds or from different research communities are particularly welcome. All submissions must be in PDF and written in English, single-blind and formatted in the style of the ACM template and format as the main TheWebConf 2023 conference (see the instruction for authors). Workshop papers should not exceed 12 pages in length (maximum 8 pages for the main paper content + maximum 2 pages for appendixes + maximum 2 pages for references). Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to the ACM template published in the ACM guidelines, selecting the generic “sigconf” sample. The PDF files must have all non-standard fonts embedded. Workshop papers must be self-contained and in English. The MDK 2023 proceedings will be published in the conference’s companion volume. The submission web site is https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=thewebconf2023iwpd (select ‘‘2nd International Workshop on Multisensory Data and Knowledge (MDK)’’ when creating a new submission). For any questions, please feel free to contact the organisers directly, or via thewebconf2023companion(a)easychair.org<mailto:thewebconf2023companion@easychair.org>.
