Phivos Mylonas
An overview of context types within multimedia and social computing
4th Mining Humanistic Data Workshop (MHDW 2015) in conjunction with 16th EANN Conference, Rhodes, Greece, September 2015
ABSTRACT
The importance of contextual information is widely acknowledged and has become a major topic of interest, investigation, and experimentation for quite some time, generating numerous papers and many scientific works. In this position paper we attempt to present the role of context, tackling it from the humanistic scope of its utilization within the modern social networking applications framework. Three major types of relevant contextual information may be identified in the literature, namely multimedia content retrieval and analysis systems that utilize the notion of context towards improved results, context-aware systems, and contextual semantics, i.e., works that utilize semantic technologies for mining and intelligent information access to social media. For each type we shall present a brief review of its context definition and modeling methods, as well as identify and discriminate its useful types focusing on multimedia computing applications.
