Accurate online video tagging via probabilistic hybrid modeling
Jialie ShenMeng · 2016
Accurate video tagging has been becoming increasingly crucial for online video management and search. This article documents a novel framework called comprehensive video tagger (CVTagger) to facilitate accurate tag-based video annotation. The system applies both multimodal and temporal properties combined with a novel classification framework with hierarchical structure based on multilayer concept model and regression analysis. The advanced architecture enables effective incorporation of both video concept dependency and temporal dynamics. Using a large-scale test collection containing 50,000 YouTube videos, a set of empirical studies have been carried out and experimental results demonstrate various advantages of CVTagger over the state-of-the-art techniques.
