From alan.smeaton at dcu.ie Wed Oct 2 12:54:20 2013 From: alan.smeaton at dcu.ie (Prof. Alan Smeaton) Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2013 17:54:20 +0100 Subject: [tv13.list] =?windows-1252?q?Speaker_proposals_for_TRECVid_-_due_?= =?windows-1252?q?Friday_4th_October_noon_EST_=85_deadline_remains=2E?= Message-ID: <690E40D5-3441-414B-8888-2D6E6A4564FD@dcu.ie> Hi Folks As you probably know, with the US Government shutdown, our colleagues at NIST are not working, the NIST servers are shut down, and I'm not even sure that this email to tv13.list at nist.gov will get through. We also don't know how long this shutdown will last but as of now, it doesn't look like it will be resolved this week, and when it is resolved it will take our colleagues at NIST some time to get back to normal. The most immediate deadline fro TRECvis is the speaker proposals, which are due in 2 days from now, Friday 4th October at 12 noon EST. If you intend to submit a speaker proposal for the TRECVid workshop then please do so by emailing the proposal to myself, Wessel Kraaij and Georges Quenot, all cc on this email. This will allow us to make decisions on speaker selection so when NIST comes back to work, the catchup will be just a bit easier. Many thanks - Alan, Wessel and Georges From over at nist.gov Fri Oct 18 07:16:02 2013 From: over at nist.gov (Paul Over) Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2013 07:16:02 -0400 Subject: [tv13.list] TRECVID 2013 Workshop agenda posted Message-ID: <52611872.2000008@nist.gov> Hi - The agenda for the TRECVID 2013 Workshop, occurring as scheduled, has been posted - a week late.

We are having problems updating it. In the meantime, you can use the 2012 form - just cross out "2012" and write in "2013" before you sign it and scan it in again to it send to Lori. http://www-nlpir.nist.gov/projects/tv2013/notebookpapers.html Thanks, Paul -- Paul Over ---------------------------------------------- Retrieval Group Information Access Division Information Technology Laboratory National Institute of Standards and Technology Gaithersburg, MD 20899-8940 USA Bldg. 225 Rm.
