Designing for Semantic Access: A Video Browsing System

摘要

Users of browsing applications often have vague information needs which cn only be described in conceptual terms. Therefore, a video browsing system must accept conceptual queries for preselection and offer mechanisms for interactive inspection of the result set by the user. In this paper, we describe a MM-DBMS that we extended with the following components: Our retrieval engine calculates relevance values for the results of a conceptual query by feature aggregation on video shot granularity to offer conceptual, content-based access.
