Call for Participation: Computer Vision for Digital Humanists Winter School (8.-10. February 2023)

A three-day winter school hosted by the University of Graz:

Computer Vision has become a very relevant skill for many Digital Humanists, but it is hard to distinguish how we can best budget our time and efforts to engage with this new technology. This workshop will provide a conceptual introduction to the processes involved, coupled with hands-on exercises that focus on the ways that we, as humanists, can curate content and manage metadata to make the best use of new tools available.
No advanced mathematics or computer science are presumed, but participants should be comfortable working with the Python command line (e.g., Anaconda) and running Jupyter notebooks.

To be considered for participation in this workshop please submit a one page CV and letter of interest (one page max.) addressing the following:
• Why are you interested in attending this workshop?
