Introducing the Fujitsu fi-6800 Mid-Volume Production ScannerKevin Neal
Fujitsu is proud to introduce the latest addition in our Production family of document scanners, the fi-6800 Mid-Volume Production scanner. Engineered with decades of industry-leading experience and fully-loaded with productivity enhancing features based directly on customer feedback, the fi-6800 has the perfect blend of performance and functionality for Production scanning environments.
Without a doubt impressive 130 page per minute, and true double-sided 260 image per minute, scanning speeds in color or black & white will be impressive but these speeds can also be acheived while utilizing commonly used advanced Kofax VirtualReScan, or VRS, features such as Automatic Page Orientation and Intelligent Blank Page Deletion without speed degradation typically found in competitive scanners.
The fi-6800 also has many features in addition to fast scanning speeds to help improve the \'entire\' scanning process and we look forward to sharing more information on this revolutionary new document scanner. Please feel free to contact us for more information.
I often get asked to elaborate on the benefits of network scanning so I created this document to describe some of the general benefits of Network Scanning.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

7. Higher Resolution for Forms Processing
“Scanning at true 300 dpi optical resolution is very important. Scanning at a lower resolution
and then using scanner software to increase the dpi later on does nothing for OCR. In
cases where the font size of characters on an image are very small ( point size of 4 or
less), scanning images in at 400 dpi can improve character recognition. This again would
require a scanner that supports true 400 dpi optical resolution.”
Source: http://www.primerecognition.com/augprime/ocr_faq.htm
“The accuracy of the OCR systems declined dramatically when the resolution of the images
was reduced from 300 to 200 dpi…”
Source: The Fourth Annual Test of OCR Accuracy ( http://www.isri.unlv.edu/downloads/AT-1995.pdf )
“Scan resolution: The number of dots per inch can affect the clarity of the image and accuracy
of OCR. Recent tests found that reducing from 300 dpi to 200 dpi increased the OCR error
rate for a complex document by 75%…”
