Title
Mutual Analysis of Documents and their Readers/Writers
Name
Koichi KiseAbstract
Document analysis traditionally deals with documents as objects to be analyzed. As I mentioned in the keynote talk at ICDAR2015, I would like to open up a new field in which readers and writers of documents are also to be analyzed. This allows us to enrich the analysis of documents based on the behavior and internal states of readers/writers, as well as to analyze the behavior and internal states of readers/writers using read/written documents.

He is now a professor of the Department of Computer Science and Intelligent Systems, Osaka Prefecture University, Japan. With Prof. Andreas Dengel, DFKI, he founded in 2008 the Institute of Document Analysis and Knowledge Science (IDAKS), Osaka Prefecture University, and now works as the director. He has received awards including best paper awards of three major international conferences in the field of document analysis, i.e., ICDAR (international conf. on document analysis and recognition, in 2007 and 2013), DAS (document analysis systems, in 2010) and ICFHR (international conf. on frontiers in handwriting recognition, in 2010). He was the chair of IAPR TC11 (reading systems, 2012-2016), and a member of IAPR conferences and meetings committee. He has been an Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Document Analysis and Recognition.
