Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electronics is pleased to announce a Special Issue dedicated to exploring the intersection of electronics, computer science, and cultural heritage. We invite researchers and experts from diverse disciplines to contribute their original research articles, reviews, and case studies to this Special Issue, shedding light on the latest advancements in the preservation techniques and applications of this fascinating field.
Objective:
This Special Issue aims to showcase innovative research that harnesses the potential of electronics and computer science to advance our preservation, understanding, and utilization of cultural heritage. We seek contributions that highlight the transformative role of technology in tackling challenges related to the documentation, conservation, analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of cultural heritage. This Special Issue will provide a platform from which to explore interdisciplinary approaches, showcase practical applications, and foster collaboration between researchers, practitioners, and professionals in the realms of electronics, computer science, and cultural heritage.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Technological advancements in cultural heritage preservation;
- Digital documentation techniques used for artifacts, monuments, and sites;
- Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) applications in cultural heritage;
- Data-driven approaches for the analysis and interpretation of cultural heritage;
- Machine learning and computer vision for the recognition and classification of artifacts;
- Computational methods for historical text analysis and language processing;
- Digital archiving and data management for cultural heritage collections;
- Human–computer interactions (HCIs) and user interfaces for cultural heritage experiences;
- Internet of Things (IoT) applications in heritage conservation and monitoring;
- Collaborative platforms and crowd-sourcing in cultural heritage research;
- Ethical considerations in the application of electronics and computer science to cultural heritage;
- Case studies showcasing successful projects and best practices.
