Content Analysis and MPEG-7 Description Tools, S&R and media semantics - BrownBag on 20th Dec 2007

Herwig Rehatschek, Peter Schallauer, Michael Hausenblas
Seminar "Content Analysis and MPEG-7 Description Tools, S&R and media semantics at JOANNEUM RESEARCH/IIS&IMA"

Abstract:

We will present content analysis, content description, multimedia ontologies and multimedia deployment results based on our
research.

Content analysis research is concentrated on visual video analysis, from low level features up to semantically meaningful high level
features. Content description topics include MPEG-7 related metadata modelling and tools for the creation and validation of metadata
descriptions (http://www.joanneum.at/uploads/tx_publicationlibrary/img3052.pdf,
http://www.joanneum.at/uploads/tx_publicationlibrary/HAW-2007-OEGAI-EN.pdf).

Secondly we present and demonstrate our video browsing suite, which supports the clustering of various video content features, and
provides for summaries of the content (http://www.joanneum.at/uploads/tx_publicationlibrary/BAW-2006-TRECVID.pdf)

Finally, we will focus on media semantics from multimedia Ontologies (NM2, MEPCO, COMM) to deployment issues of multimedia metadata
on the Web (http://sw.joanneum.at/rammx/).

Description:

For the past several years I have warned people not to ask me to predict the future, because my predictions are usually wrong. Undaunted by failure, in this talk I will try to predict the future of the semantic web based on a very personal view of its history, the history of the internet, web, semantic web, and AI, and the mistakes I've made predicting where and how they would be valuable.
