Title
Knowledge-assisted semantic video object detection
Abstract
An approach to knowledge-assisted semantic video object detection based on a multimedia ontology infrastructure is presented. Semantic concepts in the context of the examined domain are defined in an ontology, enriched with qualitative attributes (e.g., color homogeneity), low-level features (e.g., color model components distribution), object spatial relations, and multimedia processing methods (e.g., color clustering). Semantic Web technologies are used for knowledge representation in the RDF(S) metadata standard. Rules in F-logic are defined to describe how tools for multimedia analysis should be applied, depending on concept attributes and low-level features, for the detection of video objects corresponding to the semantic concepts defined in the ontology. This supports flexible and managed execution of various application and domain independent multimedia analysis tasks. Furthermore, this semantic analysis approach can be used in semantic annotation and transcoding systems, which take into consideration the users environment including preferences, devices used, available network bandwidth and content identity. The proposed approach was tested for the detection of semantic objects on video data of three different domains.
