image-MLの皆様、Document-MLの皆様

大阪府立大学の岩村です。
以前お送りしましたInternational Workshop on Robust Reading 
(IWRR)というECCVワークショップについて、締切が近くなりましたので、再アナウンスさせていただきます。
（前回のメールは文字化けしていたかも知れません）

論文の投稿締切は6月20日です。
また、ECCV / ACM 
Multimediaでリジェクトされた論文の再投稿を7月7日まで受け付けます。

キーノートトークには、Google Deep Mindの研究者も来てくれることになりました。
ワークショップの日程が10月9日（本会議の前日）に決まりました。

投稿ならびに参加をご検討いただければ幸いです。


=======  CFP – ECCV WS 2nd International Workshop on Robust Reading =======

                               Call for papers

                 2nd International Workshop on Robust Reading
                         (in conjunction with ECCV 2016)
           October 9, 2016, Amsterdam, The Netherlands

                         http://www.cvc.uab.es/IWRR2016


IWRR aims at bringing together computer vision researchers and practitioners
with an interest in reading systems that operate on images acquired in
unconstrained conditions, such as scene images and video sequences, 
born-digital
images, wearable camera and lifelog feeds, social media images, etc. The
particular focus of the workshop is on the automatic extraction and
interpretation of textual content in images, and applications that use 
textual
information obtained automatically by such methods.

The workshop aims to offer a forum for researchers to share experiences and
latest results in the area, and to discuss current trends and the 
evolution of
the Robust Reading Competition (RRC) which has attracted to date over 1,500
researchers and more than four thousand submissions. Reporting recent 
results on
standard datasets such as the ICDAR RRC 2015 dataset on incidental scene 
text or
the Coco-Text dataset is particularly encouraged.

All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three members of the 
programme
committee. Paper acceptance will be based on originality, novelty, technical
soundness, and clarity of presentation. Proceedings for all ECCV 2016 
workshops
will be published with Springer.

Fresh paper submissions as well as re-submissions of improved versions of
rejected ECCV / ACM Multimedia papers (submitted along with the original
reviews) are welcome. The topics of interest include among others:

-          Scene text localisation, segmentation, and recognition
-          Reading scene and/or overlaid text in video sequences
-          Word spotting
-          End-to-end reading systems
-          Text localisation and recognition in born-digital images
-          Restoration of camera captured paper documents
-          Quality estimation and degradation modelling of 
camera-captured text
-          Performance evaluation and metrics
-          Robust reading applications
-          Graphical content interpretation in complex settings
