Taming media for the masses: Computational frameworks for intelligent digital media capture, management, and sharing

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The core issues tackled in this project are learning, recognition and application of semantics in multimedia data and the context of its creation and use - a foundational issue in pattern recognition with many applications. The project is part of the Institute for Multi-sensor Processing and Content Analysis whose aim is to tackle technical issues in large scale pattern recognition. By developing scalable and robust techniques to extract information from large scale multi-modal data, the applications include large scale surveillance systems from multi-modal data (e.g. airport security, smart homes for the aged), context-aware devices, and the next generation of media creation and repurposing tools - a fast-growing sector of the economy.
