CHORUS Deliverable 2.1: State of the Art on Multimedia Search Engines
Based on the information provided by European projects and national initiatives related to multimedia search as well as domains experts that participated in the CHORUS Think-thanks and workshops, this document reports on the state of the art related to multimedia content search from, a technical, and socio-economic perspective.
The technical perspective includes an up to date view on content based indexing and retrieval technologies, multimedia search in the context of mobile devices and peer-to-peer networks, and an overview of current evaluation and benchmark inititiatives to measure the performance of multimedia search engines.
From a socio-economic perspective we inventorize the impact and legal consequences of these technical advances and point out future directions of research
Learning to Generate Posters of Scientific Papers
Researchers often summarize their work in the form of posters. Posters
provide a coherent and efficient way to convey core ideas from scientific
papers. Generating a good scientific poster, however, is a complex and time
consuming cognitive task, since such posters need to be readable, informative,
and visually aesthetic. In this paper, for the first time, we study the
challenging problem of learning to generate posters from scientific papers. To
this end, a data-driven framework, that utilizes graphical models, is proposed.
Specifically, given content to display, the key elements of a good poster,
including panel layout and attributes of each panel, are learned and inferred
from data. Then, given inferred layout and attributes, composition of graphical
elements within each panel is synthesized. To learn and validate our model, we
collect and make public a Poster-Paper dataset, which consists of scientific
papers and corresponding posters with exhaustively labelled panels and
attributes. Qualitative and quantitative results indicate the effectiveness of
our approach.Comment: in Proceedings of the 30th AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence
