Title
Concept Detection in Multimedia Web Resources About Home Made Explosives
Abstract
This work investigates the effectiveness of a state-of-the-art concept detection framework for the automatic classification of multimedia content, namely images and videos, embedded in publicly available Web resources containing recipes for the synthesis of Home Made Explosives (HMEs), to a set of predefined semantic concepts relevant to the HME domain. The concept detection framework employs advanced methods for video (shot) segmentation, visual feature extraction (using SIFT, SURF, and their variations), and classification based on machine learning techniques (logistic regression). The evaluation experiments are performed using an annotated collection of multimedia HME content discovered on the Web, and a set of concepts, which emerged both from an empirical study, and were also provided by domain experts and interested stakeholders, including Law Enforcement Agencies personnel. The experiments demonstrate the satisfactory performance of our framework, which in turn indicates the significant potential of the adopted approaches on the HME domain.
