VIT@MediaEval 2013 Placing Task : Location Specific Tag Weighting for Language Model Based Placing of Images
Sandeep Subramanian, Vivek Vidyasagaran, Krishna Chandramouli · MediaEval · 2013
This paper describes our participation in the Placing Task at MediaEval 2013. The goal of the task is to predict the geographical coordinates of a set of images using already geo-tagged user annotated ones. Our approach to solve this problem relies purely on textual metadata present in the geo-tagged images to place images. We used a frequency based filter followed by a tag spread measure as our feature selection technique. The approach produced 26% accuracy within a 500km radius.
