In this paper, we present the HVIS (Hybrid Video Information System) which bolsters up meaning retrieval of all the various users by integrating feature-based retrieval and annotation-based retrieval of unformatted formed and massive video data. HVIS divides a set of video into video document, sequence, scene and object to model the metadata and suggests the Two layered Hybrid Object-oriented Metadata Model(THOMM) which is composed of raw-data layer for physical video stream, metadata layer to support annotation-based retrieval, content-based retrieval, and similarity retrieval. Grounded on this model, we presents the video query language which make the annotation-based query, content-based query and similar query possible and Video Query Processor to process the query and query processing algorithm. Specially, We present the similarity expression to appear degree of similarity which considers interesting of user. The proposed system is implemented with Visual C++, ActiveX and ORACLE.

This paper proposes an efficient photo retrieval system that automatically indexes for searching of relevant images, using a combination of geo-coded information, direction/location of image capture device and content-based visual features. A photo image is labeled with its GPS (Global Positioning System) coordinates and direction of the camera view at the moment of capture, and the label leads to generate a geo-spatial index with three core elements of latitude, longitude and viewing direction. Then, content-based visual features are extracted and combined with the geo-spatial information, for indexing and retrieving the photo images. For user's querying process, the proposed method adopts two steps as a progressive approach, filtering the relevant subset prior to use a content-based ranking function. To evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme, we assess the simulation performance in terms of average precision and F-score, using a natural photo collection. Comparing the proposed approach to retrieve using only visual features, an improvement of 20.8% was observed. The experimental results show that the proposed method exhibited a significant enhancement of around 7.2% in retrieval effectiveness, compared to previous work. These results reveal that a combination of context and content analysis is markedly more efficient and meaningful that using only visual feature for image search.

Recently, we can hear various kinds of music in everywhere and anytime. If a user wants to find the music which was heard before in a street or cafe, but he does not know the title of the music, it is difficult to find it. That is the limitation of previous retrieval system of music data. To overcome these problems, we research a method of content-based retrieval of music data based on the recorded humming, the part of recorded music and the played musical instrument. In this paper, we investigated previous content-based retrieval methods of papers, systems and patents. Based on that, we research a method of content-based retrieval of music data. That is, in case of using the recorded humming and music for query, we extract the frequency information from the recorded humming/music and the stored music data by using FFT. We use a MIDI file in case of query by the played musical instrument. And by using dynamic programming matching, the error caused by the disparity of length between the input source with the stored music data could be reduced.

Recently, many researches into distributed processing on Internet, and multimedia data processing have been performed. Rapid and convenient multimedia services supplied with high quality and high speed are to be needed. In this paper, we design and implement clip-based video retrieval system on the Web enviroment in real-time. Our system consists of the content-based indexing system supporting convenient services for video content providers, and the Web-based retrieval system in order to make it easy and various information retrieval for users in the Web. Three important methods are used in the content-based indexing system, key frame extracting method by dividing video data, clip file creation method by clustering related information, and video database construction method by using clip unit. In Web-based retrieval system, retrieval method ny using a key word, two dimension browsing method of key frame, and real-time display method of the clip are used. In this paper, we design and implement the system that supports real-time display method of the clip are used. In this paper, we design and implement the system that supports real-time retrieval for video clips on Web environment and provides the multimedia service in stability. The proposed methods show a usefulness of video content providing, and provide an easy method for serching intented video content.

Content based Image retrieval methods in the multimedia information retrievals use primary visual features such as color, texture and shape. Color and texture generally are used as features of the image retrieval systems. But these systems may produce errors in similar image retrieval because two images with different shapes can represent very different contents. Therefore, the use of shape describing features is essential in an efficient content based image retrieval system. In this paper, after the global features filtering process by the boundary of objects, we have created a better shape similarity image retrieval system by a histogram of shape information.

Current image retrieval techniques have shortcomings that make it difficult to search for images based on a semantic understanding of what the image is about. Since an image is normally associated with multiple contexts (e.g. when and where a picture was taken,) the knowledge of these contexts can enhance the quantity of semantic understanding of an image. In this paper, we present a context-aware image retrieval system, which uses the context information to infer a kind of metadata for the captured images as well as images in different collections and databases. Experimental results show that using these kinds of information can not only significantly increase the retrieval accuracy in conventional content-based image retrieval systems but decrease the problems arise by manual annotation in text-based image retrieval systems as well.

Most general content-based image retrieval techniques use color and texture as retrieval indices. Spatial information is not used to color histogram and color pair based on color retrieval techniques. This paper proposes the selection of a set of representative in the duplicated color histogram, the analysis of spatial information of the selected colors and the image retrieval process based on the duplicated color histogram and spatial information. Two color historgrams for background and object are used in order to decide on color selection in the duplicated color histogram. Spatial information is obtained using a maximum entropy discretization. A retrieval process applies to duplicated color histogram and spatial to retrieve input images and relevant images. As the result of experiment of the image retrieval, improved color his togram and spatial information method hs increased the retrieval effectiveness more the color histogram method and color pair method.

Wavelet transform used for content-based image retrieval has good performance in texture image. Image features for content-based image retrieval are color, texture, and shape. In this paper, we use color feature extracted from HSI color space known as most similar vision system to human vision system and texture feature extracted from wavelet histogram which has multiresolution property. Proposed method is compared with HSI color histogram method and wavelet histogram method. It is shown better performance.

We describe a novel method for improving the performance of the UCC retrieval using content reputation and user reputation. The UCC retrieval is a part of the information retrieval. The goal of the information retrieval system finds documents what users want, so the goal of the UCC retrieval system tries to find UCCs themselves instead of documents. Unlike the document, the UCC has not enough textual information. Therefore, we try to use the content reputation and the user reputation based on non-textual information to gain improved retrieval performance. We evaluate content reputation using the information of the UCC itself and social activities between users related with UCCs. We evaluate user reputation using individual social activities between users or users and UCCs. We build a network with users and UCCs from social activities, and then we can get the user reputation from the network by graph algorithms. We collect the information of users and UCCs from YouTube and implement two systems using content reputation and user reputation. And then we compare two systems. From the experiment results, we can see that the system using content reputation outperforms than the system using user reputation. This result is expected to use the UCC retrieval in the feature.
