DIAL2004 will bring together Digital Library (DL) and Document Image Analysis (DIA) researchers, practitioners, and users who are interested in new technologies that assist the integration of imaged documents within DLs so that, ideally, everything that can be done with symbolically encoded data can also be done with scanned hardcopy documents.  In an increasingly digital world, vast legacy (& modern) collections of irreplaceable paper documents are threatened with neglect and irrelevance unless difficult DIA tasks can be automated: searching document images, presenting them legibly, navigating within and among them, etc. This workshop will attempt to describe the state of the art and identify urgent open problems. More broadly, the workshop is designed to promote closer cooperation between the DIA and DL communities in exploring fundamental capabilities that will allow information systems to operate with equal effectiveness across all media types and formats, including paper documents and other human-legible but non-digital media, in multiple languages, and from many historical periods.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Document Image Analysis (DIA) methods useful in Digital Libraries (DLs)

  • Challenging DL open problems requiring new DIA research strategies

  • End-user requirements for document images provided via DLs

  • Case studies of DLs that serve document images well

  • Imaging & compression standards for document preservation, analysis, etc

  • Automatic quality control during document image capture

  • Content & metadata extraction, recognition, analysis, tagging, linking, etc

  • Parallel tagging of images, transcripts, and other document layers

  • Information extraction from images of tables, graphs, mathematics, etc

  • Searching/querying, retrieval, summarizing/condensing of document images

  • Presentation & legibility of document images via GUIs, eBooks, PDAs, etc

  • On-line & web-based navigation within/among document images

  • Personal & interactive DLs:  e.g. capture, correction, reading/browsing

  • Historical/archival DIA; original-medium quality challenges

  • Inter- & multi-national DLs:  e.g. languages, scripts, translations

  • Guaranteeing authenticity of document images; rights management

  • Citation and editorial control of image-based data

  • File formats & representations of document images & results of analysis

  • Multimedia document analysis, including audio & video

  • Proposals for DIA/DL database collection, truthing, benchmarking, etc

  • Government-sponsored projects (e.g. The Newton Project, American Memory)

  • Critical surveys of the state of the art of DLs & DIA


Workshop format:

Two days: Friday & Saturday. Podium presentations, keynote talks, panel discussions, & breakout working groups. Single track (except working groups). 100% participation, i.e. every attendee will give a presentation. On-site printed Proceedings. Post-Proceedings book and/or journal special issue. Breakfasts, lunches, & Friday-evening banquet.

Starts immediately following the SPIE/IS&T 16th International Symposium on Electronic Imaging: Science & Technology,http://electronicimaging.org/Call/04 (Jan. 18-22), San Jose, CA (25 minutes’ drive south of Palo Alto). Note: the Document Recognition & Retrieval (DR&R) Conf. (Jan. 21-22) is one of many events included in the SPIE/IS&T Symposium.
Deadlines for two classes of submissions:

Regular Papers (up to 30 pages, refereed, archivally published, long presentation):

Submission October 15; Acceptance November 20; Camera-ready copy December 20.



Abstracts of Remarks (1-5 pages, not refereed, unpublished, brief presentation):

Submission December 1; Acceptance December 15.
