DESCRIPTION:Isabella di Lenardo\nTitle:\nBuilding a European Time Machine
  \n\nAbstract:\nWhy and how to build a European Time Machine? \n\nSince 
 2016\, EPFL has been leading a European project\, and now an organisation\
 , that aims to create the development of widespread Local Time Machines in
  Europe. What are the reasons for dealing with past cultural heritage\, 
 why it is important and how can we use the most advanced AI technologies o
 f the present to do so\; these are the challenges of Time Machine Europe. 
 The presentation aims to explain what the state of the project is today\,
  the types of projects\, the challenges and the future of the Time Machine
 .\n\nThe talk will also illustrate a specific case\, that of Lausanne Time
  Machine in Lausanne\, launched in 2018\, and supported by the College d
 es humanités of EPFL and the history department of the Faculty of Arts of
  UNIL. The initiative articulates a set of projects that aim to link Lausa
 nne's heritage institutions and academic research. The main objective is
  to enhance heritage sources with digital tools and to study new methods -
  and techniques - to massively extract the information contained in histor
 ical sources and make it available to researchers but also to the genera
 l public.\n\nBiography: \nIsabella di Lenardo\, dr. in Theories and Art H
