Video Data Visualization System: Semantic Classification And Personalization
We present in this paper an intelligent video data visualization tool, based
on semantic classification, for retrieving and exploring a large scale corpus
of videos. Our work is based on semantic classification resulting from semantic
analysis of video. The obtained classes will be projected in the visualization
space. The graph is represented by nodes and edges, the nodes are the keyframes
of video documents and the edges are the relation between documents and the
classes of documents. Finally, we construct the user's profile, based on the
interaction with the system, to render the system more adequate to its
references.Comment: graphic

Network of the Day: Aggregating and Visualizing Entity Networks from Online Sources
This software demonstration paper presents a project on the interactive visualization of social media data. The data presentation fuses German Twitter data and a social relation network extracted from German online news. Such fusion allows for comparative analysis of the two types of media. Our system will additionally enable users to explore relationships between named entities, and to investigate events as they develop over time. Cooperative tagging of relationships is enabled through the active involvement of users. The system is available online for a broad user audience
Production of semi real time media-GIS contents using MODIS imagery
[Abstract]:
Delivering environmental disaster information, swiftly, attractively, meaningfully, and accurately, to public is becoming a competitive task among spatial data visualizing experts. Basically, the data visualization process has to follow basics of spatial data visualization to maintain the academic quality and the spatial accuracy of the content. Here, âMedia-GISâ, can be promoted as a one of the latest sub-forms of GIS, which targets mass media. Under Media-GIS, âPresentâ or the fist component of three roles of data visualization takes the major workload compare to other two, âAnalysisâ and âExploreâ. When present contents, optimizing the main graphical variables like, size, value, texture, hue, orientation, and shape, is vital with regard to the target market (age group, social group) and the medium (print, TV, WEB, mobile). This study emphasizes on application of freely available MODIS true colour images to produce near real time contents on environmental disasters, while minimizing the production cost. With the brake of first news of a significant environmental disaster, relevant MODIS (250m) images can be extracted in GeoTIFF and KLM (Keyhole Markup Language) formats from MODIS website. This original KML file can be overlayed on Google Earth, to collect more spatial information of the disaster site. Then, in ArcGIS environment, GeoTIFF file can be transferred into Photoshop for production of the graphics of the target spot. This media-friendly Photoshop file can be used as an independent content without geo-references or imported into ArcGIS to convert into KLM format, which has geo-references. The KLM file, which is graphically enhanced content with extra information on environmental disaster, can be used in TV and WEB through Google Earth. Also, sub productions can be directed into print and mobile contents. If the data processing can be automated, system will be able to produce media contents in a faster manner. A case study on the recent undersea oil spill occurred in Gulf of Mexico included in the report to highlight main aspects discussed in the methodology
Jigsaw: investigative analysis on text document collections through visualization
This article describes the Jigsaw system for helping investigative analysis across collections of text documents. Jigsaw provides multiple visualizations of the documents and
the entities within them to help investigators discern embedded stories and plots. Our early focus within Jigsaw has not
been on legal documents and E-discovery, but we feel that
the system may have potential in these areas as well. This
article illustrates Jigsawâs views and operations using Enron
email archives as example documents
Investigating Rumor Propagation with TwitterTrails
Social media have become part of modern news reporting, used by journalists
to spread information and find sources, or as a news source by individuals. The
quest for prominence and recognition on social media sites like Twitter can
sometimes eclipse accuracy and lead to the spread of false information. As a
way to study and react to this trend, we introduce {\sc TwitterTrails}, an
interactive, web-based tool ({\tt twittertrails.com}) that allows users to
investigate the origin and propagation characteristics of a rumor and its
refutation, if any, on Twitter. Visualizations of burst activity, propagation
timeline, retweet and co-retweeted networks help its users trace the spread of
a story. Within minutes {\sc TwitterTrails} will collect relevant tweets and
automatically answer several important questions regarding a rumor: its
originator, burst characteristics, propagators and main actors according to the
audience. In addition, it will compute and report the rumor's level of
visibility and, as an example of the power of crowdsourcing, the audience's
skepticism towards it which correlates with the rumor's credibility. We
envision {\sc TwitterTrails} as valuable tool for individual use, but we
especially for amateur and professional journalists investigating recent and
breaking stories. Further, its expanding collection of investigated rumors can
be used to answer questions regarding the amount and success of misinformation
on Twitter.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figures, under revie
