TREC Video Track and CIVR2003

["Prof. Alan Smeaton" <asmeaton@computing.dcu.ie>]

Colleagues

Thanks to all who participated in and contributed to a great few days at
NIST last week ... there was real achievement by all of us, and a lot of
interest from outside the track in what we do.

Some of you may be thinking of writing up your TREC2002 video track
activities as a paper for somewhere, in addition to your revised paper
for the TREC proceedings, and if you are then you might consider the
Conference on Image and Video Retrieval to be held in July 2003 at the
Bckman Instituite in Illinois (close to the time of SIGIR in Toronto so
1 trip could take in both events).  CIVR2003 details are at
