在这篇文章中,作者介绍了Eurovision,一个基于文本的跨语言(CL)图像检索系统。该系统由多语种用户进行两项搜索任务的评估,系统配置为英语和其他五种语言。据作者所知,这是第一次公布的CL图像检索的用户实验。他们表明,(a)它是可能的,以创建一个可用的多语言搜索引擎,使用任何语言以外的英语知识很少,(B)分类图像协助用户的搜索,(c)有不同的方式用户搜索之间的拟议的搜索任务。基于这两个搜索任务和用户反馈,他们描述了任何CL图像检索系统的重要方面。
In this article the authors present Eurovision, a text‐based system for cross‐language (CL) image retrieval. The system is evaluated by multilingual users for two search tasks with the system configured in English and five other languages. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first published set of user experiments for CL image retrieval. They show that (a) it is possible to create a usable multilingual search engine using little knowledge of any language other than English, (b) categorizing images assists the user's search, and (c) there are differences in the way users search between the proposed search tasks. Based on the two search tasks and user feedback, they describe important aspects of any CL image retrieval system.
