Message from the Editor


This edition of the newsletter provides updates on all three conferences organized by TC-11 (ICDAR, DAS, and ICFHR), along with two closely related conferences organized by members of the TC-11 community (ASAR and ICPRAI). ASAR is concerned with Arabic script analysis and recognition, while ICPRAI is being held to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the renown CENPARMI lab in Montréal (http://www.concordia.ca/research/cenparmi.html), which many members of our community have been members of, visited, or collaborated with. Congratulations to Dr. Ching Suen and his team on reaching this impressive milestone.

A brief summary of news included in this edition of the newsletter is provided below.

Conferences: Our flagship conference ICDAR 2017 is fast approaching. The conference web pages (http://u-pat.org/ICDAR2017/index.php) provide information about travel to Kyoto, the conference program, keynote speakers, tutorials, workshops, and our distinguished IAPR/ICDAR 2017 award winners. As a reminder for those planning to attend, online registration is open until October 9th (http://u-pat.org/ICDAR2017/attend_registration.php). Don't forget about the workshop on the future of Document Analysis and Recognition research, which is certain to produce interesting discussions and is free of charge for participants.

The official ICFHR 2018 (Niagara Falls) Call for Papers and Call for Competitions are now out. DAS 2018 (Vienna), ASAR 2018 (London), and ICPRAI 2018 (Montréal) also have Calls for Papers in this edition of the newsletter.

Journal Special Issues: The submission deadline for the IJDAR special issue on Deep Learning in Document Recognition is very soon (Sept. 30th). Submissions for another upcoming special issue on Document Image Processing in the Journal of Imaging are due Oct. 31st. Additional information can be found below.

Call for Participation: The Workshop for the Future of Document Analysis and Recognition (repost)

Important Dates
Nov. 12, 14:30-18:30: Workshop (co-located with ICDAR 2017)

Website: http://u-pat.org/ICDAR2017/program_special.php

In cooperation with the Institute of Document Analysis and Knowledge Science (IDAKS), Osaka Prefecture University Kyoto Terrsa, Kyoto, Japan

Workshop Chairs
Koichi Kise, Osaka Prefecture University, Japan
Andreas Dengel, DFKI, Germany

Objectives

Let's discuss the future of document analysis and recognition. In the history of ICDAR in the last 26 years, we have been working in a variety of fields of document analysis and recognition, and have solved many important problems. The emergence of machine learning technologies, however, has shifted the nature of unsolved problems. For example, improving accuracy of methods for existing problems attracts less researchers. This brings us to the following questions: What are exciting open problems that interest more researchers? What are research topics young researchers and outsiders of the ICDAR community cannot help joining us?

This workshop is planned to discuss possible research topics and open problems to start new chapters of research on document analysis and recognition.

Workshop Format

The purpose of the workshop is to have deeper discussions about the future of document analysis and recognition. For stimulating the discussion, we have short presentation by invited speakers listed below to share their views of the future. After the presentation, we select some representative topics for discussion. Then participants and invited speakers are divided into some groups of selected topics for discussion. The results of discussion will be summarized at the end of the workshop and final results will be presented at the main conference. We plan to have a short summary presentation at the banquet and more detailed presentation and discussion at the panel on the last day of the conference.

Overview. DAS 2018 is the 13th edition of the 100% participation single-track IAPR sponsored workshop focusing on system-level issues and approaches in document analysis and recognition. The workshop comprises invited speaker presentations, oral, poster, tutorial and demo sessions as well as working group discussions.

DAS 2018 will be organized at TU Wien (Vienna University of Technology), in the heart of Vienna’s city center, which places the attendees within walking distance to a large variety of world-famous historical and cultural attractions. The program will include long and short papers, posters and demonstrations of working or prototype systems. All submissions will undergo a rigorous review process with a minimum of 3 reviews considering the originality of work, the quality of research or analysis of experience, the relevance to document analysis systems, and quality of presentation.

Information regarding paper submissions is provided below. Note: Submission of a paper involves a commitment that, if accepted, one or more authors will attend the workshop.

Full Papers. Full papers should describe complete works of original research. Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered in another form, up to 6 pages length.

Short Papers. Short papers provide an opportunity to report on research in progress and to present novel positions on document analysis systems. Authors may submit short papers (up to 2 pages in length). Short papers will also undergo review and will appear in an extra booklet, not in the official DAS 2018 proceedings.

Demonstrations. DAS 2018 seeks public demonstrations of novel systems, to be presented to the workshop as a whole during breaks between paper sessions. Prospective demonstrators should submit a two-page summary of the system to be demonstrated. Demonstration proposals will undergo review and summaries of accepted demonstrations will appear in the extra DAS 2018 booklet, as in the case of short papers.
