The second international workshop on "Machines and Manuscripts: Opportunities for the Automatic Pattern Recognition and Analysis of Historical Documents" will be held on 19th and 20th February 2015. The workshop is organized by the BMBF-funded project eCodicology and will be hosted by Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany. The goal of this workshop is to bring together experts from diverse fields such as pattern recognition, digital humanities and information visualization.

The topical focus of the conference will be on all technical possibilities for the automatic pattern recognition, in particular feature extraction, and the analysis of digital images. Another subject will be data visualization methods.

The workshop will feature a poster session that will provide an opportunity for young scientists to discuss various topics related to the automatic analysis and computer-based evaluation of medieval manuscripts and digital book collections.
