The proposed algorithm takes into account the basic formatting commonly in use for lyrics on CD booklets and specialized Web sites, in order to extract basic semantic information, such as the organization in lines and sections. Then the algorithm applies simple rules to reconstruct lyrics structure, supporting tolerance margins as regards possible errors and encoding variants. The output is a sequence of sections labelled according to the similarity of their contents. The resulting segmenter is publicly available as a set of methods exposed via a Web application programming interface (API).","PeriodicalId":136289,"journal":{"name":"2013 8th International Workshop on Semantic and Social Media Adaptation and Personalization","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124080020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the current situation mainly text data are used for these purposes. In our work we focus on information that is saved in images of the faces of potential users of a social network. Since there are hundreds of photos from almost every user of a social network online, if we find a way to analyze them effectively then we can suggest to the user new contacts. These new contacts will be more relevant than these which come from current methods for friend suggestions. The experimental algorithm for the new way of suggestions is described in this paper. The algorithm uses tools that are freely available for any user, which was one of our main targets. The results of the testing show that our algorithm is successful during new contact suggestions.","PeriodicalId":136289,"journal":{"name":"2013 8th International Workshop on Semantic and Social Media Adaptation and Personalization","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122120269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Affective computing, along with the wide range of related application areas, is expanded increasingly due to the emerging demand for natural, intelligent, adaptive and personalized multimodal interaction context. This paper focuses on the gesture and bodily expressivity analysis, investigating and reporting the entire spectrum of related aspects such as issues involved in affectively enhanced corpora (stimuli and input streams), respective expressivity formalization approaches as well as machine learning and pattern recognition aspects (feature extraction, multimodal fusion and classification). Finally, the synthesis counterpart of affectively enhanced behavior is examined and future directions of the research area are identified.","PeriodicalId":136289,"journal":{"name":"2013 8th International Workshop on Semantic and Social Media Adaptation and Personalization","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114816829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is performed by a swallow able camera-equipped capsule wirelessly transmitting color video frames. Reading the resulting video is a challenging process for the endoscopists. It requires a considerable amount of time, usually hours of undivided attention and experience to detect and correctly interpret findings. In this paper we propose a novel method for automatic construction of panoramic visual summaries of WCE video frames enabling efficient reading of the video, while providing a broader field of view for the endoscopists. It involves extraction of visual features from each frame, and frame registration. Consecutive frames are geometrically transformed and stitched together to form new sequences of panoramic frames, each of which summarizes the information contained in multiple original ones. The proposed method has been integrated with Java Video Analysis (JVA), a novel software development framework for video applications. Its experimental evaluation on real, publicly available WCE video clips show that its application can result in a reduction of 84.5%of the video frames to be examined by the endoscopes.","PeriodicalId":136289,"journal":{"name":"2013 8th International Workshop on Semantic and Social Media Adaptation and Personalization","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131381838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
