主題: Multimedia Content Analysis and Its Applications

大綱:

Multimedia content analysis has long been an active research topic, with the goal to derive automatic methods for semantic descriptions and annotations, as well as coming up with creative and interactive applications. However, since semantic entities (e.g. objects, concepts, and events) in consumer photos and videos are usually captured in uncontrolled conditions, such as various viewpoints, positions, scales, and background clutter, in this talk, we will present sensing techniques of multimedia content analysis for giving semantic entities discovery and retrieval in real-world scenes. Several application scenarios will be showcased to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed sensing techniques. In particular, one application is to analyze the fashion trend of clothes from real video contents. Another application is mobile vision for locating the visual objects precisely and meanwhile achieving real-timeperformances.
