Description

The emerging idea of the semantic web is based on the maximum automation of the complete knowledge lifecycle processes: knowledge representation, acquisition, adaptation, reasoning, sharing and use.

Text-based based browsers involve a costly information-retrieval process: descriptions are inherently subjective and usage is often confined to the specific application domain for which the descriptions were created. Automatic extracted audiovisual features are, in general, more objective, domain-independent and can be native to the audiovisual content.

This book seeks to draw together in one concise volume the findings of leading researchers from around the globe. The focus, in particular, is on the MPEG-7 and MPEG-21 standards that seek to consolidate and render effective the infrastructure for the delivery and management of multimedia content. 

  • Provides thorough coverage of all relevant topics, including structure identification in audiovisual documents, object-based video indexing, multimedia indexing and retrieval using natural language, speech and image processing methods
  • Contains detailed advice on ontology representation and querying for realizing semantics-driven applications
  • Includes cutting-edge information on multimedia content description in MPEG-7 and MPEG-21
  • Illustrates all theory with real-world case studies gleaned from state-of-the-art worldwide research. The contributors are pioneers in the fields of multimedia analysis and knowledge technologies

This unified, comprehensive up-to-date resource will appeal to integrators, systems suppliers, managers and consultants in the area of knowledge management and information retrieval; particularly those concerned with the automation of the semantic web. The detailed, theory-based practical advice is also essential reading for postgraduates and researchers in these fields.

描述

新興的語義網概念基於完全自動化的完整知識生命週期過程:知識表示、獲取、適應、推理、共享和使用。基於文本的瀏覽器涉及昂貴的信息檢索過程:描述本質上是主觀的,使用通常限於創建描述的特定應用領域。自動提取的視聽特徵通常更客觀、與領域無關,並且可以是視聽內容的本地特徵。

本書旨在將來自全球領先研究人員的研究成果匯集在一個簡潔的卷中。特別關注的是MPEG-7和MPEG-21標準,旨在整合和有效地提供多媒體內容的交付和管理基礎設施。

提供了所有相關主題的全面覆蓋,包括視聽文檔中的結構識別、基於對象的視頻索引、使用自然語言、語音和圖像處理方法進行多媒體索引和檢索。

包含關於實現基於語義的應用的本體表示和查詢的詳細建議。

包含有關MPEG-7和MPEG-21中多媒體內容描述的尖端信息。

通過來自世界各地最先進的研究的實際案例研究來說明所有理論。貢獻者是多媒體分析和知識技術領域的先驅者。

這本統一、全面且最新的資源將吸引知識管理和信息檢索領域的整合者、系統供應商、經理和顧問,特別是那些關注語義網的自動化的人。對於這些領域的研究生和研究人員來說,詳細的基於理論的實用建議也是必讀的。
