Subject: Public Renaissance
Public Renaissance: Digital art history and new opportunities
Fabrizio Nevola (Exeter; Venice)
Monday, 14 March, 18.00
https://bsr.ac.uk/public-renaissance/
We increasingly order the world around us in geo-spatial terms,
empowered by mobile devices and geo-location, toggling
between 2D maps to 3D street views. The potential of these
same technologies for historical research on cities is only
starting to be realized. At the same time Augmented Reality
(AR) invites a new approach to the ‘museum without walls’,
reuniting cultural heritage – cities, buildings, artworks –
across time and space. Drawing from two research projects,
Hidden Cities (see www.hiddencities.eu) and Florence4D
(www.florence4d.org) this paper considers how digital art
history methods are creating new research opportunities,
while at the same opening up new ways to engage the wider
public. Spatially-determined research questions encourage
us to think about how meaning is constructed from the triad
of spaces-objects-people, while spatial technologies (GIS,
GPS, 3D modelling) allow us to shape innovative responses
to those questions, ranging from interactive map interfaces
to locative interpretation delivered on handheld devices. In
so doing we’re discovering new things about the material
culture of public space in the Renaissance, but also making
that research directly available to the public.

Subject: Second Workshop on Language Technologies for Historical and Ancient Languages (LT4HALA 2022)
2nd CFP: Second Workshop on Language Technologies for Historical and
Ancient Languages
https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022
- START submission site: https://www.softconf.com/lrec2022/LT4HALA/
- Place: co-located with LREC 2022, Marseille, France
- Date: 25 June 2022 (post-conference workshop)
DESCRIPTION
LT4HALA 2022 is a one-day workshop that seeks to bring together scholars
who are developing and/or are using Language Technologies (LTs) for
historically attested languages, so to foster cross-fertilization
between the Computational Linguistics community and the areas in the
Humanities dealing with historical linguistic data, e.g. historians,
philologists, linguists, archaeologists and literary scholars. LT4HALA
2022 follows LT4HALA 2020 that was organized in the context of LREC 2020
(proceedings: https://aclanthology.org/volumes/2020.lt4hala-1/
<https://aclanthology.org/volumes/2020.lt4hala-1/>). Despite the current
availability of large collections of digitized texts written in
historical languages, such interdisciplinary collaboration is still
hampered by the limited availability of annotated linguistic resources
for most of the historical languages. Creating such resources is a
challenge and an obligation for LTs, both to support historical
linguistic research with the most updated technologies and to preserve
those precious linguistic data that survived from past times.
Relevant topics for the workshop include, but are not limited to:
- handling spelling variation;
- detection and correction of OCR errors;
- creation and annotation of digital resources;
- deciphering;
- morphological/syntactic/semantic analysis of textual data;
- adaptation of tools to address diachronic/diatopic/diastratic
variation in texts;
- teaching ancient languages with NLP tools;
- NLP-driven theoretical studies in historical linguistics;
- evaluation of NLP tools.
SHARED TASKS
LT4HALA 2022 will hosts two shared tasks:
- the second edition of EvaLatin, an evaluation campaign entirely
devoted to the evaluation of NLP tools for Latin. The second edition of
EvaLatin will focus on three tasks (i.e. Lemmatization, PoS tagging, and
Morphological Feature Identification), each featuring three sub-tasks
(i.e. Classical, Cross-Genre, Cross-Time).
- the first edition of EvaHan, the first evaluation campaign for the
evaluation of NLP tools for Ancient Chinese. EvaHan first edition has
one task (i.e. a joint task of Word Segmentation and POS Tagging).
Training data for both shared tasks are available on the conference website:
- EvaLatin 2022 training data:
https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaLatin#training-data
- EvaHan 2022 training data:
https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaHan#training-data
Test data will be available on the web pages of the two shared tasks at
the following URLs:
- EvaLatin 2022 test data (available after March 17th):
https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaLatin#test-data
- EvaHan 2022 test data (available after March 31st):
https://circse.github.io/LT4HALA/2022/EvaHan#test-data
SUBMISSIONS
For the workshop, we invite papers of different types such as
experimental papers, reproduction papers, resource papers, position
papers, survey papers. Both long and short papers describing original
and unpublished work are welcome. Long papers should deal with
substantial completed research and/or report on the development of new
methodologies. They may consist of up to 8 pages of content plus 2 pages
of references. Short papers are instead appropriate for reporting on
works in progress or for describing a singular tool or project. They may
consist of up to 4 pages of content plus 2 pages of references.
We encourage the authors of papers reporting experimental results to
make their results reproducible and the entire process of analysis
replicable, by making the data and the tools they used available. The
form of the presentation may be oral or poster, whereas in the
proceedings there is no difference between the accepted papers. The
submission is NOT anonymous. The LREC official format is requested. Each
paper will be reviewed but three independent reviewers.
As for EvaLatin and EvaHan, participants will be required to submit a
technical report for each task (with all the related sub-tasks) they
took part in. Technical reports will be included in the proceedings as
short papers: the maximum length is 4 pages (excluding references) and
they should follow the LREC official format. Reports will receive a
light review (we will check for the correctness of the format, the
exactness of results and ranking, and overall exposition). All
participants will have the possibility to present their results at the
workshop: we will allocate an oral session and a poster session fully
devoted to the shared tasks in the afternoon.

- Describing your LRs in the LRE Map is now a normal practice in the
submission procedure of LREC (introduced in 2010 and adopted by other
conferences). To continue the efforts initiated at LREC 2014 about
“Sharing LRs” (data, tools, web-services, etc.), authors will have the
possibility, when submitting a paper, to upload LRs in a special LREC
repository. This effort of sharing LRs, linked to the LRE Map for their
description, may become a new “regular” feature for conferences in our
field, thus contributing to creating a common repository where everyone
can deposit and share data.
- As scientific work requires accurate citations of referenced work so
as to allow the community to understand the whole context and also
replicate the experiments conducted by other researchers, LREC 2022
endorses the need to uniquely Identify LRs through the use of the
International Standard Language Resource Number (ISLRN, www.islrn.org
<http://www.islrn.org>), a Persistent Unique Identifier to be assigned
to each Language Resource. The assignment of ISLRNs to LRs cited in LREC
papers will be offered at submission time.
