Towards a Scalable Networked Retrieval System for Searching Multimedia Databases
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper the architecture of a distributed and scalable multimedia information retrieval system (Dsmily) is described. The system consists of hierarchically organized networked nodes and is designed to integrate existing dynamic multimedia databases. The document ranking process as well as the preselection of databases to be searched, both tasks are based on a probabilistic model for distributed retrieval.

Balancing Strategies for Parallel Content-based Data Retrieval Algorithms in a k-tree Structured Database
The paper proposes a unified model for multimedia data retrieval which includes data representatives, content representatives, index structure, and search algorithms. The multimedia data are defined as k-dimensional signals indexed in a multidimensional k-tree structure. The benefits of using the k-tree unified model were demonstrated by running the data retrieval application on a six networked...

متن کاملAn Efficient Indexing and Search Technique for Multimedia Databases
We present a novel index-based approach for searching multimedia databases by content. Our approach integrates methods from classical full-text retrieval with the mathematical concept of groups acting on sets. This yields a flexible framework applicable to a wide range of content-based search problems such as audioor image-identification. We propose space-efficient indexing methods as well as v...
