Socializing the Semantic Gap: A Comparative Survey on Image Tag Assignment, Refinement and Retrieval
Where previous reviews on content-based image retrieval emphasize on what can
be seen in an image to bridge the semantic gap, this survey considers what
people tag about an image. A comprehensive treatise of three closely linked
problems, i.e., image tag assignment, refinement, and tag-based image retrieval
is presented. While existing works vary in terms of their targeted tasks and
methodology, they rely on the key functionality of tag relevance, i.e.
estimating the relevance of a specific tag with respect to the visual content
of a given image and its social context. By analyzing what information a
specific method exploits to construct its tag relevance function and how such
information is exploited, this paper introduces a taxonomy to structure the
growing literature, understand the ingredients of the main works, clarify their
connections and difference, and recognize their merits and limitations. For a
head-to-head comparison between the state-of-the-art, a new experimental
protocol is presented, with training sets containing 10k, 100k and 1m images
and an evaluation on three test sets, contributed by various research groups.
Eleven representative works are implemented and evaluated. Putting all this
together, the survey aims to provide an overview of the past and foster
progress for the near future.Comment: to appear in ACM Computing Survey
Semantic Categorization Of Online Video
As internet users are increasing day by day, the users of video-sharing site are also increasing. Video-sharing is becoming more and more popular in e-learing, but the current famous websites like youtube are not structured when it come to serving the purpose of providing educational videos for preschool and high school students. There is a need to fill building more educationally focused video site, where the content is more structured, easy to use, support both direct search and browsing, and follow a particular curriculum for preschool and high school students. This report discuss the issues like categorization and search interface of these sites and propose alternatives to existing ones out there. In this project, I have built an educational website for preschool, high school, and college level students concentrating on improved categorization and search interface of the site. This report provides detail description of my system and the results of comparison between my site and youtube. supraj
