Towards Automated Annotation of Audio and Video Recordings by Application of Advanced Web-services

چکیده
In this paper we describe audio and video processing algorithms that are developed in the scope of AVATecH project. The purpose of these algorithms is to shorten the time taken by manual annotation of audio and video recordings by extracting features from media files and creating semi-automated annotations. We show that the use of such supporting algorithms can shorten the annotation time to 30-50% of the time necessary to perform a fully manual annotation of the same kind.

Automated Annotation of Synchronized Multimedia Presentations
Semantic annotation of multimedia data for improving search engine performance is an important issue. We have focused on the automated annotation of video recordings of university lectures. Most times these lectures are supported by a desktop presentation provided by the lecturer. This presentation in general contains an outline of the given lecture and thus, enables automated annotation of the...

Project Pad, an open-source endeavor under development at Northwestern University, is an integrated web-based set of tools for searching, organizing, annotating and analyzing objects from digital repositories, for integrating those objects and analyses into web-based projects and for group exchange and decision making. It supports synchronous interaction between users and interaction with media...
متن کاملUnsupervised Decoding of Long-Term, Naturalistic Human Neural Recordings with Automated Video and Audio Annotations
Fully automated decoding of human activities and intentions from direct neural recordings is a tantalizing challenge in brain-computer interfacing. Implementing Brain Computer Interfaces (BCIs) outside carefully controlled experiments in laboratory settings requires adaptive and scalable strategies with minimal supervision. Here we describe an unsupervised approach to decoding neural states fro...
متن کاملAVATecH - automated annotation through audio and video analysis
In different fields of the humanities annotations of multimodal resources are a necessary component of the research workflow. Examples include linguistics, psychology, anthropology, etc. However, creation of those annotations is a very laborious task, which can take 50 to 100 times the length of the annotated media, or more. This can be significantly improved by applying innovative audio and vi...
متن کاملEnhancing Learning Using Synchronised Multimedia Annotation
Audio and Video has become easier to record and store but while users can easily bookmark, search, link to, or tag the WHOLE of a recording available on the web (e.g. YouTube) they cannot easily find, or associate their notes or resources with, PART of that recording. This project therefore addresses the important user need of making multimedia web resources easier to access, search, manage, an...
