Deciphering Historical Manuscripts
Speaker: Kevin Knight
Session Chair: Venu Govindaraju
Abstract. European libraries and archives are filled with enciphered manuscripts from the early modern period. These include military and diplomatic correspondence, records of secret societies, private letters, and so on. Even though they are enciphered with older cryptographic methods, their contents are still unavailable to working historians. In this talk, we will describe such manuscripts and show how computer algorithms can help decipher them, both from digital transcriptions and from raw pixel images.
Short Biography. Kevin Knight is Dean's Professor of Computer Science at the University of Southern California (USC) and Chief Scientist for Natural Language Processing at Didi Chuxing. He is best known for his contributions to statistical machine translation, natural language generation, automata theory, and decipherment of historical manuscripts. Prof. Knight is a Fellow of ACL, AAAI, and ISI.

Putting it all together: Partial Understanding, Intellectual Transformation and Cultural Evolution
Speaker: Gregory R. CraneSession Chair: R. Manmatha
Abstract. Human society now interacts in real time on a global scale and the intensity of that interaction is only accelerating. We need to understand cultural practices whose roots evolved over thousands of years and in more languages than any human being can study, much less master. The response to this is to reimagine philology in a digital age, where philology essentially describes the application of all available methods to understanding the linguistic record of humanity. This talk considers how handwriting recognition fits within the larger framework of philology in general as well as how hybrid learning, involving machines as well as citizen scientists, redefines the goals, scope and importance of philology as an instrument to advance human culture.
Short Biography. Gregory R. Crane is the Alexander von Humboldt Professor of Digital Humanities at the University of Leipzig and Winnick Family Chair of Technology and Entrepeneurship at Tufts University. Greg owes his reputation as a pioneer of digital humanities to his development of the Perseus Digital Library, a comprehensive, freely accessible online library for antique source material. He has received, among other awards, the Google Digital Humanities Award 2010 for his work in the field.

Oral Presentations
- If a paper is not presented (oral or poster) by one of its authors, then the paper will be withdrawn from the proceedings and from IEEE Xplore. There will be NO exceptions to this policy.
- Authors may not delegate presentation of their paper to anyone else.
Poster Presentations
- The conference site projectors have an aspect ratio of 4:3 (an aspect ratio of 16:9 may look odd).
- You must ensure that your presentation does not exceed 15 minutes. This will give 5 minutes for the session chair and audience to pose questions and have discussions. Please meet the session chair for your session at least 15 minutes before the session begins.
- If you are using your own laptop for the presentation, please ensure that it is compatible with the projector present in the room before the session. As a precautionary measure, please also bring a USB memory stick containing your presentation.
- If you will be using the laptop present in the conference hall, please bring a USB memory stick containing your presentation. The laptop will have Microsoft PowerPoint and Acrobat available in it.
- Wi-fi access to the internet will be available in the conference hall.
- Contact questions@icfhr2018.org if you have any queries not answered on this page.
- Each poster display board will be of size 8ft (width) x 4ft (height). and any poster that fits within that dimension is fine.
- Posters with landscape orientation preferred. Ideal dimensions: A0 (1189 mm wide x 841 mm high) or 4ft wide by 3 ft high
- All posters can be mounted from 8:00 am on the day of the presentation, and must be necessarily mounted before the poster session begins. Mounting boards and pins/adhesives will be available in the poster room.
- The posters in each session will be numbered. The list of numbers will be posted next to the board. Please use your numbered location.
- One of the authors must be present at their poster for the entire duration of their session.
- We are exploring the possibility of having the posters on display on all days of the conference. If this were to happen, poster authors will be notified via email prior to the start of the conference to mount their posters before the start of the first poster session on the first day.
