Following
the success of the three previous workshops, MISRM 1999, and MIR 2000,
MIS 2001 all held in conjunction with the respective ACM Multimedia
Conferences, we are organizing a fourth edition of the Inlt. Workshop
on Multimedia Information Retrieval, MIR 2002, to be held jointly with
ACM Multimedia 2002. Its purpose is to bring together researchers, developers
and practitioners from academia and industry. The workshop will serve
as a forum for discussion, presentation, and exploration of techniques,
approaches and experiences in the field of multimedia information retrieval.
In order
to have an application focus, this year we will have a special invited
session on Multimedia content-based retrieval for cultural heritage
applications. The special session will focus on content-based retrieval
in the framework of cultural heritage applications and will be organized
in cooperation with DELOS-NSF working group on "Digital Imagery
for Significant Cultural and Historical Materials".
