Multimedia data comprising of images, audio and video is becoming
increasingly common. The decreasing costs of consumer electronic
devices such as digital cameras and digital camcorders, along with
the ease of transportation facilitated by the Internet, has lead to
a phenomenal rise in the amount of multimedia data generated and
distributed. Given that this trend of increased use of multimedia
data is likely to accelerate, there is an urgent need for providing
a clear means of capturing, storing, indexing, retrieving,
analyzing and summarizing such data. Content-based access to
multimedia data is of primary importance since it is the natural
way by which human beings interact with such information. To
facilitate the content-based access of multimedia information, the
first step is to derive feature measures from these data so that a
feature space representation of the data content can be formed.
This can subsequently allow for mapping the feature space to the
symbol space (semantics) either automatically or through human
intervention. Thus, signal to symbol mapping, useful for any
practical system, can be successfully achieved. Perspectives on
Content-Based Multimedia Systems provides a comprehensive set of
techniques to tackle these important issues. This book offers
detailed solutions to a wide range of practical problems in
building real systems by providing specifics of three systems built
by the authors. While providing a systems focus, it also equips the
reader with a keen understanding of the fundamental issues,
including a formalism for content-based multimedia database
systems, multimedia feature extraction, object-based techniques,
signature-based techniques and fuzzy retrieval techniques. The
performance evaluation issues of practical systems is also
explained. This book brings together essential elements of building
a content-based multimedia database system in a way that makes them
accessible to practitioners in computer science and electrical
engineering. It can also serve as a textbook for graduate-level
courses.
