1st<\/span> Workshop on Intelligent Techniques At LIbraries and Archives (IT@LIA 2015)<\/h3>\n

Huge amounts of very heterogeneous data are nowadays available in either born-digital or digitized format, both in the Web and in personal collections, ranging from structured to semi-structured and unstructured contents in multiple media and languages.<\/p>\n

The informative content and size of this data are ever growing and they raise challenging problems for their effective and efficient management as well as for extracting and exploiting the information they convey.<\/p>\n

All aspects of human knowledge and interests are involved, from cultural heritage to administration, from leisure to work, from government to industry. As a consequence, everyday activities more and more heavily rely on the availability and exploitability of these data. Part of this data has already been collected into digital libraries, others still needs to be properly organized and made available to stakeholders.<\/p>\n

However, even using a digital library system for managing and organizing the contents, we cannot let it operate alone, but we need to make it interoperate with other collections and systems as well as to (semantically) link its contents to other sources in order to provide more powerful end-user services.
\nTherefore, both the amount and complexity of the data and the key needs they should be exploited for require next generation digital libraries to embed advanced and intelligent techniques to provide powerful functionalities to the stakeholders.<\/p>\n

Developing such techniques requires the strict interaction and cooperation of many different areas and skills: standardization, document processing, natural language processing, library development and organization, multimedia management, fruition, semantic processing, etc. Artificial Intelligence techniques may provide significant support in many of these areas, in order to face some of the complexities of this domain.<\/p>\n

The Italian communities in Artificial Intelligence and Digital Libraries have developed significant skills in their own areas, but they still have not started a stable and strict cooperation. This workshop aims at bridging this gap, bringing together researchers from different fields that may provide a contribution in this landscape. People from the Digital Libraries community may find a venue to highlight problems and needs, and people from Artificial Intelligence may find a real-world domain in which proposing advanced solutions aimed at tackling significant problems.<\/p>\n

This one-day workshop will include an invited talk and a panel session, and will propose paper presentations and demos.<\/p>\n

General areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics:<\/p>\n
