Suspicious emails should be forwarded to phishing(a)uleth.ca. Third call for papers Third workshop on Resources for African Indigenous Language (RAIL) https://bit.ly/rail2022 The South African Centre for Digital Language Resources (SADiLaR) is organising the 3rd RAIL workshop in the field of Resources for African Indigenous Languages. This workshop aims to bring together researchers who are interested in showcasing their research and thereby boosting the field of African indigenous languages. This provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art and emphasizes availability of African indigenous language resources, including both data and tools. Additionally, it will allow for information sharing among researchers interested in African indigenous languages and also start discussions on improving the quality and availability of the resources. Many African indigenous languages currently have no or very limited resources available and, additionally, they are often structurally quite different from more well-resourced languages, requiring the development and use of specialized techniques. By bringing together researchers from different fields (e.g., (computational) linguistics, sociolinguistics, language technology) to discuss the development of language resources for African indigenous languages, we hope to boost research in this field. The RAIL workshop is an interdisciplinary platform for researchers working on resources (data collections, tools, etc.) specifically targeted towards African indigenous languages. It aims to create the conditions for the emergence of a scientific community of practice that focuses on data, as well as tools, specifically designed for or applied to indigenous languages found in Africa. Suggested topics include 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age * Effectiveness of digital technologies for the development of African indigenous languages * Revealing unknown or unpublished existing resources for African indigenous languages * Developing desired resources for African indigenous languages * Improving quality, availability and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 3rd RAIL workshop 2022 will be co-located with the 10th Southern African Microlinguistics Workshop ( https://sites.google.com/nwulettere.co.za/samwop-10/home). This will be an in-person event located in Potchefstroom, South Africa. Registration will be free. RAIL 2022 submission requirements: * RAIL asks for full papers from 4 pages to 8 pages (plus more pages for references if needed), which must strictly follow the Journal of the Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa style guide ( https://upjournals.up.ac.za/index.php/dhasa/libraryFiles/downloadPublic/30 ). * Accepted submissions will be published in JDHASA, the Journal of the Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa ( https://upjournals.up.ac.za/index.php/dhasa/). * Papers will be double blind peer-reviewed and must be submitted through EasyChair (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=rail2022).

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. SAVE THE DATE Launching Uli: A browser plug-in to mitigate oGBV Thursday, 28 July 2022 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM IST Hi all! We invite you to join us for the launch event of Uli (Thursday, 28 July 2022 from 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM IST). Uli is a browser plug-in, based on machine learning and non-ML approaches, to help mitigate online gender and sexual abuse on Twitter in three Indian languages: Hindi, Tamil and Indian English. Uli has jointly been produced by The Centre for Internet and Society and Tattle Civic Tech over the past year, with support from Omidyar Network. The tool design is based on a needs assessment with over 50 outspoken users identifying as women or sexual minorities. The data for the ML model was annotated by a team of 18 expert annotators who frequently encountered oGBV on social media or were at the receiving end of online harassment as journalists, activists or community influencers. With Uli, users can choose to hide offensive content identified by the tool or create their custom slur list to hide triggering words from their feed. They can also use the archive feature to keep a record of problematic posts or call upon their network to seek support. You can read more on the project and the tool here: http://uli.tattle.co.in/ As part of the launch event, we are organising a panel discussion on what tech can/cannot do to mitigate online gender and sexual abuse. Our speakers - Shohini Bannerjee from Point of View, Mumbai will share their experience of building TechSakhi, the helpline as a response to online GBV Malavika Rajkumar from IT for Change will talk about platform accountability for online sexism and misogyny. Ritesh Kumar from the ComMA project at Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Agra will speak about the challenges of working on aggression detection in low resource Indian languages. Zoom details and agenda will be shared with you once you have signed up! Please note that the last date for registration<https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYkduGtpjwrHdy-P06YFvvbUVuPZHGt7o…> is 27 July 2022. Warm regards, CIS & Tattle

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 and artificial intelligence, they address challenging problems related to the diversity, specificity and volume of the media, 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 visualisation 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 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.

Manifesto for digital scholarly editions - translation initiative
by Christiane Fritze 10 Jun '22

10 Jun '22

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, The Institute for Documentology and Scholarly Editing (IDE) organised a workshop at the conference of the German-speaking DH community in March, where a manifesto for digital scholarly editions was developed with about 60 participants. The German version has been published at https://dhd-blog.org/?p=17563 and can be signed by leaving a comment. We think it is important to translate the manifesto into many languages to take into account the multilingualism, polyphony and diversity of the global DH community. Therefore we are looking for people who want to take over the moderation for a translation into other languages. The Italian Version has been done already and is on the way to its publication. Are you interested in moderating the translation process of one language (except Italian and German)? For the following languages we prepared a GoogleDoc based on the translation by the tool DeepL. * English (draft)<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aEZlp7OjACwuKJoTKD1BHq-T99sHYq8tFJ3PwFa…> * Português (versão preliminar)<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1s6EFJ0X5U1vXulmsjwG-_IbJmFrUBEiCaLPli6D…> * Español (borrador)<https://docs.google.com/document/d/15NVh3G-8w996wlCKHp4mP_9TJByszvkJdmyG-A0…> * Italiano (bozza)<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NHg604qP8NXwTbeDA-wVbfAPKLMuxDRCNAkLZd9…> * Version française (brouillon)<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DxbYQ00onzB4kXJGbli4WP7rhezA9EJ5StXFvGd…> * Japanese Version (draft by Nobutake Kamiya and Marc Scheffer)<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ttk3z57BJyhjJ7naaXLXSL4FvniYi5CHkAHOezS…> * Another Japanese version<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YlwK8Bk0Kh06SgXWQYYai69qWohwVcOpRBNatm2…> Feel free to start a translation process of your language. Please let us know via twitter to @ideinfo or email to info(a)i-d-e.de<mailto:info@i-d-e.de> so that we can support you and keep the language versions and further developments on this topic together. All language drafts so far are listed under https://www.i-d-e.de/publikationen/weitereschriften/ Many thank and best wishes, Christiane -- @decongela<https://twitter.com/decongela> Institut für Dokumentologie und Editorik<http://www.i-d-e.de>, @ideinfo<https://twitter.com/ideinfo>

CfP Third workshop on Resources for African Indigenous Language (RAIL)
by Menno Van Zaanen 10 Jun '22

10 Jun '22

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. First call for papers Third workshop on Resources for African Indigenous Language (RAIL) https://bit.ly/rail2022 The South African Centre for Digital Language Resources (SADiLaR) is organising the 3rd RAIL workshop in the field of Resources for African Indigenous Languages. This workshop aims to bring together researchers who are interested in showcasing their research and thereby boosting the field of African indigenous languages. This provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art and emphasizes availability of African indigenous language resources, including both data and tools. Additionally, it will allow for information sharing among researchers interested in African indigenous languages and also start discussions on improving the quality and availability of the resources. Many African indigenous languages currently have no or very limited resources available and, additionally, they are often structurally quite different from more well-resourced languages, requiring the development and use of specialized techniques. By bringing together researchers from different fields (e.g., (computational) linguistics, sociolinguistics, language technology) to discuss the development of language resources for African indigenous languages, we hope to boost research in this field. The RAIL workshop is an interdisciplinary platform for researchers working on resources (data collections, tools, etc.) specifically targeted towards African indigenous languages. It aims to create the conditions for the emergence of a scientific community of practice that focuses on data, as well as tools, specifically designed for or applied to indigenous languages found in Africa. Suggested topics include 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 3rd RAIL workshop 2022 will be co-located with the 10th Southern African Microlinguistics Workshop ( https://sites.google.com/nwulettere.co.za/samwop-10/home). This will be an in-person event located in Potchefstroom, South Africa. Registration will be free. RAIL 2022 submission requirements: * RAIL asks for full papers from 4 pages to 8 pages (plus more pages for references if needed), which must strictly follow the Journal of the Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa style guide ( https://upjournals.up.ac.za/index.php/dhasa/libraryFiles/downloadPublic/30 ). * Accepted submissions will be published in JDHASA, the Journal of the Digital Humanities Association of Southern Africa ( https://upjournals.up.ac.za/index.php/dhasa/). * Papers will be double blind peer-reviewed and must be submitted through EasyChair (https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=rail2022).
