SAFIRE: Towards Standardized Semantic Rich Image Annotation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Most of the currently existing image retrieval systems make use of either low-level features or semantic (textual) annotations. A combined usage during annotation and retrieval is rarely attempted. In this paper, we propose a standardized annotation framework that integrates semantic and feature based information about the content of images. The presented approach is based on the MPEG-7 standard with some minor extensions. The proposed annotation system SAFIRE (Semantic Annotation Framework for Image REtrieval) enables the combined use of low-level features and annotations that can be assigned to arbitrary hierarchically organized image segments. Besides the framework itself, we discuss query formalisms required for this unified retrieval approach.

Scalable Image Annotation by Summarizing Training Samples into Labeled Prototypes
By increasing the number of images, it is essential to provide fast search methods and intelligent filtering of images. To handle images in large datasets, some relevant tags are assigned to each image to for describing its content. Automatic Image Annotation (AIA) aims to automatically assign a group of keywords to an image based on visual content of the image. AIA frameworks have two main sta...

Recently a new iterative reconstruction algorithm named Iterative Reconstruction (SAFIRE) has been released by Siemens. This algorithm works in the raw data domain with noise reduction as main purpose, providing five different strengths. In this study, the effect of SAFIRE on image quality has been investigated using selected phantoms and a comparison with standard filtered back projection (FBP...

Spatial annotations form part of the Semantic Annotation Framework (SemAF). The current development SemAF-Space (ISO 24617-7) provides a formal specification but does not provide annotation guidelines. In my talk I will compare this approach with the approach developed for the annotation of preposition senses in Müller et al. (2011), where the annotation guidelines form the annotation specifica...
متن کاملA Survey of Refining Image Annotation Techniques
Automatic image annotation has been an active research topic in recent years due to its potential impact on both image understanding and semantic based image retrieval. However, the results of the state-of-the-art image annotation methods are still far from satisfaction due to the existence of semantic gap. Thus refining image annotation (RIA) has become one of the core research topics in compu...
