These challenges are reflected in the corresponding sub-fields of machine learning, signal processing, multi-modal techniques and human-machine interaction. We welcome research contributions for the following (but not limited to) topics: * Monomodal analysis: text, structured referentials, image, video, 3D, music, sensor data * Information retrieval for multimedia heritage * Automated archaeology and heritage data processing * Multi-modal deep learning and time series analysis for heritage data * Heritage modeling, visualization, and virtualization * Smart digitization and reconstruction of heritage data * Open heritage data and bench-marking The scope of targeted applications is extensive and includes: * Analysis, archaeometry of artifacts * Diagnosis and monitoring for restoration and preventive conservation * Geosciences / Geomatics for cultural heritage * Education * Smart and sustainable tourism * Urban planning * Digital Twins *** Important dates (AoE) * Paper submission: July 19, 2024 * Author acceptance notification: August 5, 2024 * Camera-Ready: August 19, 2024 * Workshop date: TBA (28 Oct - 1 Nov, 2024 ) *** Special Highlights Best Paper Award. Following tradition, SUMAC 2024 will also be awarding a best paper award, accompanied with a certificate and a trophy. *** 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 (full paper) as well as work in progress (short paper). Two submission formats are accepted: a) 4 pages plus 1-page reference (short paper); or b) 8 pages plus up to 2-page reference (full paper). They must be encoded as PDF using the ACM Article Template of the main conference ACM Multimedia 2024 ( [ https://2024.acmmm.org/regular-papers | https://2024.acmmm.org/regular-papers ] ). Peer Review and publication in ACM Digital Library. Paper submissions must conform with the “double-blind” review policy. All papers will be peer-reviewed by experts in the field, they will receive at least two reviews. Acceptance will be based on relevance to the workshop, scientific novelty, and technical quality. Depending on the number, maturity and topics of the accepted submissions, the work will be presented via oral or poster sessions. The workshop papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. *** Organizers Valerie Gouet-Brunet (LaSTIG Lab / IGN - Gustave Eiffel University, France) Ronak Kosti (Picsart AI Research Lab, Germany) Li Weng (Zhejiang Financial College, China) Looking forward to hearing from you at SUMAC!
