Document and Pattern Recognition Lab
( dprl@RIT )

We research systems that recognize and retrieve information in documents, images, and videos.

News: 2023

  • (July 11, 2023) The lab's poster and longer video demonstration for our MathDeck demo at SIGIR 2023 are now available. Live demo page link is here.
  • (June 27, 2023) The first initial release of the ChemScraper tool developed by the dprl, Denmark Lab, and NCSA has been released.  There are plans to regularly update the tool moving forward; look for updates in the coming months.
