Call for Contributions: To contribute news items, please send a short email to the editor, Richard Zanibbi (rxzvcs@rit.edu). Contributions might include conference and workshop announcements/updates/reports, career opportunities, book reviews, or anything else of interest to the TC-11 community.

Subscription: This newsletter is sent to subscribers of the IAPR TC11 mailing list. To join the TC-11 mailing list, please send an email to the editor at: rxzvcs@rit.edu. To manage your subscription, please visit the mailing list homepage: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=IAPR-TC11.

Message from the Chair: New Leadership, Twitter, and Datasets

TC-11 was one of the first IAPR TCs that introduced a larger “leadership” team including more volunteers apart from the chair and vice-chair. Continuing with this good practice, I am pleased to present you the new leadership team for the next term.

TC-11 Leadership Team (2017-2019)

  • Chair: Dr. Dimosthenis Karatzas (Computer Vision Centre, Spain)
  • Vice-Chair: Dr. Masakazu Iwamura (Osaka Prefecture University, Japan)
  • Dataset Curator: Dr. Andreas Fischer (University of Fribourg, Switzerland)
  • Communications Officer: Dr. Richard Zanibbi (Rochester Institute of Technology, USA)
  • Education Officer: Prof. Gernot A. Fink (TU Dortmund University, Germany)
  • Past Chair: Prof. Koichi Kise (Osaka Prefecture University, Japan)

I never quite liked the term leadership in this context. After all, our job as volunteers is to serve the community: provide continuity and facilitate the community in whatever the community wants to do. I suppose that a facilitating team does not sound good, so we’ll stick with leadership in the lack of any better term. In any case, one of our primary responsibilities is to listen, and try to define the roadmap of the community together with all the TC-11 members. Any idea you have about how to make TC-11 more useful, and how our activities may evolve with time would be more than welcome! Also, feel free to contact us by email at iaprtc11@gmail.com.

Apart from the monthly email newsletter, we have established a twitter account that hopefully will be more useful for immediate and direct communication. Do follow [@IAPR_TC11](https://twitter.com/iapr_tc11) and make sure you send us any opinions or information worth spreading.

Feel free also to share any useful resources you have with the community. I remind you that TC-11 can host datasets and other online resources you might want to share – just visit the TC-11 web page and follow the links to the datasets (direct link: http://www.iapr-tc11.org/mediawiki/index.php/Datasets ).

Dimosthenis Karatzas, TC-11 Chair
(dimos@cvc.uab.es)

Message from the Editor: Introduction, Thanks, and Requests

Hello, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Richard Zanibbi, the new TC-11 newsletter editor. I am also an Associate Professor of Computer Science at the Rochester Institute of Technology in the United States, where I direct the Document and Pattern Recognition Lab. I'm originally from Canada, and completed my PhD at Queen's University (Kingston) followed by nearly two years at CENPARMI in Montréal before moving to RIT (and the USA) in 2006.

I would like to thank Dr. Dimosthenis Karatzas for inviting me to serve as the TC-11 Communications Officer, Prof. Gernot Fink, who edited this newsletter with great skill for years and has been very helpful as I transition into this new role, and Dr. Masakazu Iwamura for his invaluable help with this newsletter and the TC-11 web pages. Thanks also to others who helped me sort out the contents for this newsletter, including Dr. Andreas Fischer and Prof. Marcus Liwicki. I am grateful for this opportunity, and I look forward to serving the TC-11 community.

I want to ask everyone to please send any pertinent news items to share by email rxzvcs@rit.edu, and to consider sharing our newsletter with those outside of TC-11 who may be interested. Let's keep our community strong by keeping both our community and other communities informed of our activities.

Dates and Deadlines

Call for Proposals: DAS 2018   (Repost)

Following the successful organisation of the 12th IAPR International Workshop on Document Analysis Systems in Santorini (Greece) last April (DAS 2016), by our colleagues Apostolos Antonacopoulos and Basilis Gatos, we are now soliciting proposals for organising and hosting DAS 2018.

The DAS workshop has become one of the signature events for TC-11. DAS 2018 will build on the tradition established by past DAS workshops held in Kaiserslautern, Germany (1994), Malvern, PA (1996), Nagano, Japan (1998), Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2000), Princeton, NJ (2002), Florence, Italy (2004), Nelson, New Zealand (2006), Nara, Japan (2008), Boston, MA (2010), and Gold Coast, Australia (2012), Tours-Loire Valley, France (2014), and Santorini, Greece (2016).

Individuals and groups who are interested in Document Analysis Systems are invited to submit proposals for organizing and hosting DAS 2018. The event should preferably take place in late summer/fall, but is not limited to this period.

The submission deadline is January 31st, 2017. Proposals should be submitted to the TC-11 chair (Dimosthenis Karatzas) and vice-chair (Masakazu Iwamura).

If you already know whether you are interested in preparing a proposal, please send us your expression of interest. Note that an expression of interest is not a commitment to make a formal proposal nor an official bid. If you need further information concerning DAS, please feel free to contact us.

The final selection among competing proposals will be made short after the deadline by the DAS Steering Committee, which is composed of all those who have themselves organized or contributed substantially to past DAS workshops.

ICDAR 2017 Competitions : An Overview

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the ICDAR'17 that will be held in Kyoto (November, 10th-15th) will organize a set of competitions dedicated to a large set of document analysis problems. You are cordially invited to participate in this scientific event that will be a very good opportunity to objectively compare the quality of algorithms in different categories of challenges. Please consider submitting your algorithm(s) to all competitions in the same category, as we asked the individual competition organizers to synchronize their evaluation metrics, if possible. You will find below the different categories of competitions, and the URL of their respective website, that will allow you to get all the required information for participating.

Looking forward to meeting you in Kyoto,
Kind regards,
Marcus Liwicki & Jean-Marc Ogier

ICFHR 2018: Moved to Niagara Falls, USA

After much discussion by the ICFHR 2018 conference chairs and with the approval of TC-11, the site for ICFHR 2018 has been moved from Rochester, NY (USA) to Niagara Fall, NY (USA). There are multiple reasons for this change; they include higher value for participants (e.g., better food, meeting rooms and surrounding environs) and Niagara being a more attractive meeting place for existing and potential members of the TC-11 community. The total cost to run the conference, as well as for individual participants should remain the same.

The ICFHR 2018 Call for Papers and Conference Poster are now available - please distribute these to anyone who may be interested. Additional information about important dates, the conference site, travel, the organizing committee, etc. may be found in the ICFHR 2018 web pages.
