Dedicated to data and AI for media

The Data Technology Seminar is the EBU's event dedicated to data and AI for media. The programme is designed to give a deep insight into key aspects of the technology and strategy including topics such as media data governance, AI innovations and strategies for countering disinformation.

Fraunhofer IDMT will participate with a presentation on audio-visual content verification and Hanna Lukashevich, head of Semantic Music Technologies, will be part of the program committee.

This presentation will delve into selected aspects of disinformation related to audio-visual media. It will categorize various types of disinformation and discuss general strategies for countering disinformation, focusing on the differentiation between the falsification of claims about content and the authentication of the content itself. Using the audio domain as example, it will present current analysis and detection techniques, and outline the key challenges in the field. Finally, it will demonstrate how the presented aspects are addressed in current collaborative projects like SpeechTrust+, VERA.AI, News-Polygraph, and GEISST.
