A Visual Context Ontology for Multimedia High-Level Concept Detection
5th International Workshop in Modeling and Reasoning in Context (MRC), Held at HCP 08, Delft, The Netherlands, 9-12 June 2008
ABSTRACT
The notion of context plays a signi¯cant role in multimedia content search and retrieval systems. In this paper we focus our research efforts on a visual context knowledge representation, to be utilized for multimedia high-level concept detection. We propose and describe in detail types of contextual relations evident within the multimedia content, model them and provide a clear methodology on how to extract them. A visual context ontology is introduced, containing relations among different types of content entities, such as images, regions, region types and high-level concepts. In this manner, we facilitate traditional object detection approaches towards semantical interpretation. The application of the proposed knowledge structure provides encouraging initial results, improving the e±cacy of related multimedia analysis techniques.
