Abstract

The digital libraries of the future will include not only (ASCII) text information but scanned paper documents as well as still photographs and videos. There is, therefore, a need to index and retrieve information from such multi-media collections. The Center for Intelligent Information Retrieval (CIIR) has a number of projects to index and retrieve multi-media information. These include: 1. The extraction of text from images which may be used both for finding text zones against general backgrounds as well as for indexing and retrieving image information. 2. Indexing hand-written and poorly printed documents using image matching techniques (word spotting). 3. Indexing images using their content.
