Multimedia documents i.e. photographs, indexing method for identifying person, involves enriching lattice to generate enriched lattice completed by indexed document by comparing index of document with intention of concept

摘要

The method involves organizing documents of a set of documents into a lattice comprising a concept, and selecting the concept such that one of indices of a union of intentions of the indices of objects of one of the documents constitutes a subset of combination of the indices. The document is indexed with the union of the indices of the objects from the selected concept. The lattice is enriched to generate an enriched lattice completed by the indexed document by comparing the index of the document with the intention of the selected or non-selected concept. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a method for grouping multimedia documents (2) a method for broadcasting multimedia documents (3) a computer program comprising instructions to perform a method for indexing a multimedia document (4) a computer program comprising instructions to perform a method for grouping multimedia documents (5) a computer program comprising instructions to perform a method for broadcasting multimedia documents (6) a recording medium comprising instructions to perform a method for indexing a multimedia document (7) a recording medium comprising instructions to perform a method for grouping multimedia documents (8) a recording medium comprising instructions to perform a method for broadcasting multimedia documents.
