<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Over the last decade, a large number of digital documentation projects have demonstrated the potential</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">of image-based modeling (photo modeling, photogrammetry, ...) of heritage objects in the context of</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">documentation, conservation and restoration. The inclusion of these emerging methods in the daily</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">monitoring of the activities of a heritage restoration site (context in which hundreds of photographs per</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">day can be acquired by multiple actors and according to several observation and analysis needs) raises</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">new questions at the intersection of big data management and of the semantic enrichment and the</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">automatic classification of this data, for the purpose of searching by content similarity. This PhD project</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">has the ambition to introduce a disruptive approach for the massive processing of large collections of</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">photographs, distributed in space and time. This project is part of the CNRS and French Ministry of</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Culture scientific workcamp for the restoration of Notre-Dame de Paris and, in particular, within the</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">framework of a working group in charge of building a "digital ecosystem" capable of evolving as the</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">studies progress, by progressively centralizing the resources collected, produced, analyzed and</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">interpreted by the scientists and professionals involved in the restoration workcamp. Through</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">interactions with the working groups involved in this scientific work site (wood/charpente, stone, stained</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">glass, metals, structure, acoustics, heritage emotions, etc.), the problem of automatic indexing of</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">masses of photographs will be addressed by combining several complementary 2D/3D semantic</div>
<div style="font-size: 13.3333px;">enrichment methods.</div>
