Human-centric navigation system Video Vortex for video retrieval

Abstract

This paper presents a human-centric navigation system “Video Vortex” for video retrieval. This system is realized by the following functions: (i) Collaborative use of multimedia data for their multi-modal analysis, (ii) Preference extraction for the system to adapt to users' individual demands, and (iii) Adaptive visualization for users to be guided to their desired contents. These functions effectively provide a solution to the conventional problems of not being able to satisfy various users' demands, and successful video retrieval becomes feasible.
