The Combination of Techniques for Automatic Semantic Image Annotation Generation in the IMAGINATION Application

摘要

The IMAGINATION project provides image-based navigation for digital cultural and scientific resources. Users can click on parts of an image to find other, interesting images to a given context. In this paper, we present the core parts of the IMAGINATION application. To allow the navigation through images, this application automatically generates high quality semantic metadata. Therefore it combines automated processes for person and object detection, face detection and identification in images together with text mining techniques that exploit domain specific ontologies.
