You are invited to participate in a single-track 2-day workshop on methods and systems for graphics recognition organized by IAPR TC-10 (Technical Committee on Graphics Recognition). The workshop will comprise several sessions dedicated to specific topics. For each session, there will be a main paper presentation giving the state of the art and stating the open questions for the session's topic, followed by a number of short presentations where each participant is invited to contribute by proposing solutions to some of the questions or presenting results of his/her work. Each session will be concluded by a panel discussion.
The workshop will be held just after ICDAR'97, the 4th International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition (Ulm, Germany, August 18-20, 1997). Nancy is only a 4 hours drive from Ulm and the two cities are directly connected by train. The workshop will be held in the LORIA building shared by INRIA Lorraine and CRIN/CNRS.
Attendance will be limited to 75 persons. All participants are expected to contribute actively to the workshop, either by presenting a full state-of-the-art paper, or through an abstract of remarks on a specific topic. You are invited to submit to the program committee an abstract (maximum 2 pages) of your proposed contribution to the workshop. Please indicate also if you would be willing to present a state-of-the-art paper on this topic, if invited to do so by the program committee.
Pre-proceedings of all contributed papers will be available at the workshop for the participants. After the workshop, the program committee plans to publish as a book revised versions of selected key papers, possibly including reports from the panel discussions.
