Schedule

Developers of candidate methods should register their intention to participate and receive a username & password, which will enable them to download the example dataset (document images and associated ground truth). Also, once registered, further details on the organisation of the competition can be accessed. (Registration open until April 9th, 2009)

Registered developers will be able to download the document images of the evaluation dataset.

Developers should submit the results of the candidate methods along with the executables of the candidate methods (to be able to replicate the results) and a brief description of each method. The organisers will then evaluate the submitted results and prepare a detailed report describing and comparing the candidate methods.

The results will be announced at an ICDAR2009 special session.
