The automatic generation of formal annotations in a multimedia indexing and searching environment
Thierry Declerck, Peter Wittenburg, Hamish Cunningham · 2001
We describe in this paper the MU-MIS Project (Multimedia Indexing and Searching Environment) 1 , which is concerned with the development and integration of base technologies, demonstrated within a laboratory prototype, to support automated multimedia indexing and to facilitate search and retrieval from multimedia databases.We stress the role linguistically motivated annotations, coupled with domain-specific information, can play within this environment.The project will demonstrate that innovative technology components can operate on multilingual, multisource, and multimedia information and create a meaningful and queryable database.
