Multimedia database retrieval: a human-centered approach

**Multimedia Database Retrieval: A Human-Centered Approach presents the latest development in user-centered methods and the state-of-the-art in visual media retrieval. It includes discussion on perceptually inspired non-linear paradigm in user-controlled interactive retrieval (UCIR) systems. It also features a coherent approach which focuses on specific topics within content/concept-based retrievals via audio-visual information modeling of multimedia.** Highlights include: \* Exploring an adaptive machine that can learn from its environment \* Optimizing the learning system by incorporating self-organizing adaptation into the retrieval process \* Demonstrating state-of-the-art applications within small, medium, and large databases The authors also include applications related to Digital Asset Management (DAM), Computer Aided Referral (CAR) System, Geographical Database Retrieval, retrieval of Art Documents, and Films and Video Retrieval. **Multimedia Database Retrieval: A Human-Centered Approach presents the fundamental and advanced aspects of these topics, as well as the philosophical directions in the field. The methods detailed in this book possess broad applications which will advance the technology in this fast developing topical area.** cover-large.TIF......Page 1 front-matter.pdf......Page 2 front-matter_001.pdf......Page 15 00001.pdf......Page 16 00002.pdf......Page 33 00003.pdf......Page 45 00004.pdf......Page 67 00005.pdf......Page 92 front-matter_002.pdf......Page 107 00006.pdf......Page 108 00007.pdf......Page 123 00008.pdf......Page 139 00009.pdf......Page 155 00010.pdf......Page 169 00011.pdf......Page 181 00012.pdf......Page 195 front-matter_003.pdf......Page 208 00013.pdf......Page 209 00014.pdf......Page 219 00015.pdf......Page 233 00016.pdf......Page 242 00017.pdf......Page 257 00018.pdf......Page 273 00019.pdf......Page 286 front-matter_004.pdf......Page 304 00020.pdf......Page 305 00021.pdf......Page 315 00022.pdf......Page 330 00023.pdf......Page 345 00024.pdf......Page 360 00025.pdf......Page 375 00026.pdf......Page 390 00027.pdf......Page 405 front-matter_005.pdf......Page 428 00028.pdf......Page 429 00029.pdf......Page 440 00030.pdf......Page 448 00031.pdf......Page 462 00032.pdf......Page 473 00033.pdf......Page 491 00034.pdf......Page 502 00035.pdf......Page 518 00036.pdf......Page 528 00037.pdf......Page 536 00038.pdf......Page 551 00039.pdf......Page 568 back-matter.pdf......Page 578 Edward Batschelet.
