Different from existing work, most of which either limited users to the pre-prepared characters or only used keyword queries to search materials, Sketch2Cartoon enables users to sketch major curves of characters and props in their mind, and real-time search results from millions of clipart images could be selected to compose the cartoon images. The selected components are vectorized and thus could be further edited. By enabling sketch-based input, the cartoon image making process becomes more natural, and even a child who is too young to read or write can draw whatever he/she imagines and get interesting cartoon images.","PeriodicalId":419856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 19th ACM international conference on Multimedia - MM '11","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125159563","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}

APRICOD caters for fast and scalable content discovery in peer-to-peer media streaming systems, especially when user interactions that leads to non-continuous media access (such as random seek in video and teleportation in virtual environment) are present. APRICOD caches query results based correlations among media objects accessed by users, reducing the content discovery time. Our evaluation using a VoD access trace shows that close to 70% of non-continuous access queries can be resolved with a single hop using APRICOD.","PeriodicalId":419856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 19th ACM international conference on Multimedia - MM '11","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114056284","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}
