MPEG-M: A Digital Media Ecosystem for Interoperable Applications
MPEG-M is a suite of ISO/IEC standards (ISO/IEC 23006) that has been developed under the auspices of Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG). MPEG-M, also known as Multimedia Service Platform Technologies (MSPT), facilitates a collection of multimedia middleware APIs and elementary services as well as service aggregation so that service providers can offer users a plethora of innovative services by extending current IPTV technology toward the seamless integration of personal content creation and distribution, e-commerce, social networks and Internet distribution of digital media
Towards Pervasive and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence: How standards can put a great technology at the service of humankind
With the printing industry sparing no efforts publishing books on Artificial
Intelligence (AI), why should there be another that, in its title and subtitle,
combines the overused words AI and trustworthy, with the alien words
standards and pervasive?
The answer is that the book describes a solution that covers all the elements
of the title: to effectively combine the AI and trustworthy words, but
also to make AI pervasive. How? By developing standards for AI-based data
coding.
Many industries needed standards to run their business and used to have
high respect for them. The MP3 standard put users in control of the content
they wanted to enjoy, and the television – and now the video – experiences
have little to do with how users approached audio-visual content some 30
years ago.
At that time, the media industry was loath to invest in open standards. The
successful MPEG standards development model, however, changed its attitude.
Similarly, the AI industry has been slow in developing AI-based data
coding standards making proprietary solutions their preferred route.
This book provides the full description of mission, achievements and
plans of the Moving Picture, Audio and Data Coding by Artificial Intelligence
(MPAI) standards developing organisation. It describes how MPAI
develops standards that can also be used, how standards can make AI pervasive
and promote innovation, how MPAI gives users the means to make informed
decisions about how to choose a standard implementation having the
required level of trustworthiness.
MPAI is a unique adventure open to those who want to make the MPAI
vision real
