点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

We will create an intelligent system for archiving and retrieving video and audio recordings of events about contemporary and modern art, in the first instance, focussing on a select portion of Tate's existing Online Event Archive.The system will be able to extract (from long recordings) only those sections that are relevant to a user's current interest. Furthermore, the system will be able to personally assistant users, directing and guiding the search/research activity, with 'intelligent' suggestions.We will also focus on semi-automatic indexing of the material. The system will be extendable and reusable for other collections.
