Reusing A Compound-based Infrastructure For Searching Video Stories

The fast evolution of technology has led to a growing demand for multimedia data, increasing the amount of research into efficient systems to manage those materials. A lot of research has being done by the Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) community in the field of images. Nowadays, they play a key role in digital applications. Thus, contextual integration of images with different sources is vital. It involves reusing and aggregating a large amount of information with other media types. In particular, if we consider video data, images can be used to summarize videos into storyboards, providing an easy way to navigate and to browse large video collections. This has been the goal of a quickly evolving research area known as video summarization. In this paper, we present a novel approach to reuse the CBIR infrastructure for searching video stories, taking advantage of the compound object (CO) concept to integrate resources. Our approach relies on a specific component technology to encapsulate the CBIR related tasks and integrate them with video summarization techniques, known as Digital Content Component (DCC). Such a strategy provides an effective way to reuse, compose, and aggregate both content and processing software. © 2011 IEEE.222227 IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics Society (SMC),Society for Information Reuse and Integration (SIRI)Achananuparp, P., McCain, K.W., Allen, R.B., Supporting student collaboration for image indexing (2007) Int.
