Title
MultiMedia Metadata Management: a Proposal for an Infrastructure
Abstract
The management and exchange of multimedia data is a challenging area of research due to the variety of formats, standards and the many interesting intended applications. Semantic web technologies are very promising to enable interoperability and integration of media. Many research groups are active in finding and proposing interesting solutions or standards. Within the MUSCLE NoE research is focusing on standards, technologies and techniques for integrating, exchanging and enhancing the use of multimedia within a variety of research areas. At CNR ISTI, we are developing an infrastructure for MultiMedia Metadata Management (4M) to support the integration of media from different sources. This infrastructure enables the collection, analysis and integration of media for semantic annotation, search and retrieval. In this paper we discuss the independent units that are used within the infrastructure and the semantic web technologies that are being used to support them. the representation and communication of data and metadata (5) in order to enable interaction and exchange of metadata emanating from different multimedia modalities. Facilitating the exchange of documents within the signals and imaging domain is an interesting and challenging problem due to the variety of content, formats, modes and standards used. The challenge is to provide an infrastructure that enables disparate groups to integrate, combine and disseminate research data. The achievement of this goal requires the use of standards and the development of tools to assist in the extraction and conversion of multimedia metadata. Thus, our activity is mostly concerned with the setting up of a methodology for the NoE to develop, maintain, and facilitate the exchange of multimedia metadata and data sets. To this purpose, we aim to provide an integrated metadata environment to support different metadata standards and tools for browsing, search, media transformation and dissemination. In this paper we present an infrastructure for the integration of multimedia metadata and their management that we have
