  After CIFT'02, organised in Hammamet in October
  2002, CIFT'04, International Conference on Text
  Mining, will be held in La Rochelle (France), from
  22nd to 24th June 2004.
  This meeting will take place during the "digital document
  week" (SDN'04, Semaine du Document Numérique; 21-25
June), which brings together around 20
  workshops and scientific conferences (e.g. ATALA
  and ISKO-France). This scientific week is
  organised by RTP-Doc (http://rtp-doc.enssib.fr)

  This year's themes for the conference are therefore
linked to production and
  diffusion of electronic documents. Most conferences
will focus on information exploitation and intelligent
access to contents, be they text, image, sound or
video. SDN aims at bringing together various
communities who all have a different approach to
documents and textual contents, in order to allow
participants to benefit from this diversity. The CIFT
conference which was in 2002 already associated to
CIDE (Conférence Internationale sur le Document
Electronique) and CIFED (Colloque International
Francophone sur l'Ecrit et le Document) is therefore a
natural key leader in this project.

  CIFT stems from the common preoccupation of an
emerging community of researchers seeking the
concerted use of techniques of Information Science,
Artificial Intelligence, Statistics, Linguistics,
Terminology, Natural Language Processing, Machine
Learning, Knowledge Acquisition, Ontology Learning,
Text Mining and Semantic Web. They have already
organised several conferences and workshops such as
AFIA, LREC, EGC and CoNLL.

Within the SDN, CIFT wants to be a forum for
discussions around the implementation of such methods on bases of textual 
or more generally audio-visual documents.
  Consequently, evaluators will especially appreciate
papers on detailed and large-scale experimentation
involving Text
  Mining solutions or the integration of text mining
software in global document
  engineering systems, or papers on the presentation of
software solutions
  (including help tools regarding learning validation,
results browsing, etc).

  Submitted papers may deal with theoretical,
methodological or practical aspects of Text Mining. The
  following list of topics is intended as suggestive
  rather than comprehensive:


  * Text Mining Models and methods derived from:

  - du traitement statistique des données
  - Data Mining
  - Natural Language Processing
  - Knowledge Acquisition
  - Artificial Intelligence
  - Multilingual approach
  - digital/symbolic Machine Learning
  - Automatic Clustering
  - Patterns Recognition
  - XML World
  - Ontologies
  - etc.

  * Fields of (mono/multilingual) application :

  - Information retrieval
  - Information Extraction
  - Question/Answering systems
  - Categorisation, push, pull
  - Machine abstracts
  - Semantic Web
  - knowledge re-engineering
  - Information Synthesis
  - Writing Help
  - Decision Help
   - etc


  * Dates to be remembered:

Deadline for submission: 1st February 2004
Authors Notification: 15th March 2004
Due date for Camera Ready Copies: 15th april 2004
Conference: 22-24 Juin 2004
