Call for abstracts: Museum Analytics, new directions - 18 May 2023
by Ballatore, Andrea 14 Nov '22

14 Nov '22

📢 Call for abstracts: https://kingsdh.net/museum-analytics/ 🐦 Tweet: https://twitter.com/kingsdh/status/1592082797610647552 💡 Organisers: Dr. Andrea Ballatore, King’s College London, UK • Dr. Jamie Larkin, Chapman University, CA 🌎 Location (hybrid): King’s College London (The Strand, London, UK) and online ⏰ Submission deadline: Friday 20 January 2023 🗓 Event date: Thursday 18 May 2023 Museum Analytics: New directions Call for abstracts Data science has the capacity to revitalise our understanding of the museum sector, through reframing the history of museum development, charting museum geographies, and highlighting new data relationships in innovative and dynamic ways (e.g. Ballatore & Candlin, 2022). It can also illuminate broader relationships between museums, society, and the wider Creative and Cultural Industries (e.g. Me|Mind, 2021), to help produce more joined-up cultural policy and strategy (Centre for Cultural Value, 2022). The application of data analytics presents growing opportunities for institutions and researchers across the cultural sector. While museums often use data to develop visitor profiles and drive income generation, there is tremendous scope to leverage data in ways that reimagine the cultural work of the museum and knowledge of the museum sector. Within museums, work has taken place to use data to enhance curatorial decision-making (Tate, 2016), to personalise collections databases (Noehrer et al., 2022), and to enrich and improve visitor experiences (e.g. Villaespesa & Murphy, 2021). Stemming from the Mapping Museums project (http://www.mappingmuseums.org<http://www.mappingmuseums.org/>), this one-day conference seeks to draw together museum studies scholars, data scientists, cultural policymakers, and geographers to discuss and debate the role and scope of museum analytics and to frame the development of this area of research and practice. We seek presentations of 15 minutes that examine new directions and applications for museum analytics. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Applications of data analytics in new areas of museum practice * Innovative data collection methods in museums * Social media analytics and user-generated content * New methods for audience analytics and profiling * Data-driven museum marketing * Artificial intelligence (AI) and museums * Ethical considerations surrounding data practices and datafication in museums * Innovative data applications in digital museum contexts * Museum analytics and cultural policy * Data vocabularies and linked data for museums * Data infrastructures and capacity across the museum sector * Quantitative geographies and histories of museums * History of data science methods to study museums Please send an abstract of c300 words outlining your proposed contribution by 20th January 2023 by using this form: https://forms.office.com/r/EYEBFMUdkY Decisions on abstracts will be made by 20 February 2023. We will select abstracts in terms of relevance and originality, also considering the balance between in-person and online speakers. The objectives of the event include the development and promotion of a sector-wide agenda and, more modestly, a special issue in an international journal. The event will be free to all participants, in person and online (£0).

Call for papers Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence (HHAI 2023) Mid/End of June 2023 (date TBD), Munich, Germany Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence (HHAI 2023) is the second international conference focusing on the study of Artificial Intelligent systems that cooperate synergistically, proactively and purposefully with humans, amplifying instead of replacing human intelligence. HHAI aims for AI systems that work together with humans, emphasising the need for adaptive, collaborative, responsible, interactive and human-centered intelligent systems that leverage human strengths and compensate for human weaknesses, while taking into account social, ethical and legal considerations. This field of study is driven by current developments in AI, but also requires fundamentally new approaches and solutions. In addition, we want to encourage collaborations across research domains such as AI, HCI, cognitive and social sciences, philosophy & ethics, complex systems, and others. In this second international conference, we invite scholars from these fields to submit their best original, new as well as in progress, visionary and existing work on Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence. ## Topics We invite research on different challenges in Hybrid Human-Artificial Intelligence. The following list of topics is illustrative, not exhaustive: * Human-AI interaction and collaboration * Adaptive human-AI co-learning and co-creation * Learning, reasoning and planning with humans and machines in the loop * User modelling and personalisation * Integration of learning and reasoning * Transparent, explainable and accountable AI * Fair, ethical, responsible and trustworthy AI * Societal awareness of AI * Multimodal machine perception of real world settings * Social signal processing * Representations learning for Communicative or Collaborative AI * Symbolic and narrative-based representations for human-centric AI * Role of Design and Compositionality of AI systems in Interpretable / Collaborative AI We welcome contributions about all types of technology, from robots and conversational agents to multi-agent systems and machine learning models. ## Paper types In this conference, we wish to stimulate the exchange of novel ideas and interdisciplinary perspectives. To do this, we will accept three different types of papers: * Full papers present original, impactful work (12 pages excluding references) * Working papers present work in progress or new and visionary ideas (8 pages excluding. references) * Extended abstracts present existing, pre-published work (4 pages excluding references) Accepted full papers will be published in the Proceedings of the Second International Conference on Hybrid Human-Machine Intelligence, in the Frontiers of AI series by IOS Press.

"Reframing Failure" DHRH Seminar Series Launch - School of Advanced Study , University of London
by Anna-Maria Sichani 17 Oct '22

17 Oct '22

**with apologies for cross-posting** Dear colleagues, *Reframing Failure *Seminar Series Most of us recognise that failure is an unavoidable part of any scholarly endeavour - let alone life - especially for people who work across disciplines. Yet, for something so central to our experience, it often sits at the periphery of our writing, training, and professional discourse. The *Reframing Failure *seminar series explores how we can reframe failure within the digital humanities: the ways we can learn from it, talk about it, and hopefully reconsider our collective relationship to it. Conceived as a series of conversations, *Reframing Failure* presents an opportunity to reflect on practice. It welcomes those from within and outside the digital humanities and takes an international and interdisciplinary approach to failure. Reframing Failure is a virtual seminar series hosted by the Digital Humanities Research Hub <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> at the School of Advanced Study, University of London. If you have any questions about the series, please email the facilitators Anna-Maria Sichani and Michael Donnay at digitalhumanities(a)sas.ac.uk. Seminar 1: Setting the Failure Agenda <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> Tuesday, 15 November 2022 at 17:00 GMT In 2012 Lisa Spiro wrote, ‘Not all experiments succeed as originally imagined, but the digital humanities community recognizes the value of failure in the pursuit of innovation’. A decade later, what does failure mean for the digital humanities community today? If there is value in failure, how do we create the space to fail ‘better’? Panellists include: - Quinn Dombrowski (Stanford) - David de Roure (Oxford) - Jane Winters (School of Advanced Study) - Anna-Maria Sichani (School of Advanced Study) - Chair Register here. <https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sas.a…> We will be hosting additional seminars in 2023 - the schedule for these will be announced shortly. -- *Dr. Anna-Maria Sichani* *Post-Doctoral Research Associate in Digital Humanities | The Congruence Engine: Digital Tools for New Collections-Based Industrial Histories (TaNC-AHRC)* *Digital Humanities Research Hub | **School of Advanced Study , University of London* *UKRI Policy and Engagement Fellow in Digital Research and Innovation Infrastructure* *Editor, The Programming Historian* *Director, ProgHist Ltd. | **ProgHist Ltd is a charity registered in England and Wales (1195875) and incorporated in England and Wales as a company limited by guarantee (12192946).* *programminghistorian.org/ <http://programminghistorian.org/>* @amsichani <https://twitter.com/amsichani> amsichani.github.io *Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail* ** Please note that although my working pattern means that I might send you an email outside of normal office hours, I do not expect a response outside the hours of your own working pattern. * *

Metaphor-Annotated Bible?
by Maria Berger 12 Oct '22

12 Oct '22

Hello everyone, I am currently working on transfering approaches of metaphor identification from English to German. I was wondering whether there is a freely-available metaphor-annotated Bible corpus out there. I am pretty sure there are a lot rather special datasets in the community. What I basically am looking for is a typical flat-annotated Bible (or parts of it) with words/phrases that are figurative in consent. I found the Lexham Figuratative Language of the NT Dataset (2016) but that seems to come with a special software only. I am grateful for any hint. Best, Maria -- Dr. rer. nat. Maria Berger Room GB 5/147 German Department Ruhr University Bochum Universitätsstr. 150 44780 Bochum, Germany
