Travels

I’m about to begin my second big trip of the year: a couple of weeks in Europe. I haven’t had time for blogging lately because I’ve been so busy keeping afloat with all this travel and work, but I hope to resume after my return. I still have posts about Chile to write!

I’m leaving Thursday evening for Barcelona, where I’ll be attending ICDAR (International Conference on Document Analysis and Recognition). I’ll be presenting my paper Low Cost Correction of OCR Errors using Learning in a Multi-engine Environment (PDF).

After Barcelona, I’ll be heading up to Paris, followed by Madrid, Toledo, Seville, Cordoba, and Granada. I’m very excited about the trip, but a bit stressed about getting some things done.

Anyway, time to finish packing.

Bon voyage! :-)

It is very cool that you have been able to continue this type of work even though you were not hired (I presume) for a research position. Is this the fruit of your 20% time?

@Chad: Nope, this is my main project. The line between research and engineering is very blurry at google. Perhaps I can post about this later. Most of my team has published something during their time here, but none of us are technically in research positions.
