XRCE's Participation in ImageCLEF 2009

چکیده
This paper describes XRCE’s participation in Large Scale Visual Concept Detection and Annotation Task [16] and Photo Retrieval Task [17] of ImageCLEF 2009. Those tasks both use a new collection which is different and which is much larger than the ones used in past sessions. Moreover, new kinds of challenge to tackle were designed such as new categories to detect or new types of topic to deal with. Accordingly, our main motivations regarding our participation in this year’s session are two fold. First, we wanted to apply ongoing work in our team in image and text processing. Second, we wanted to figure out if our cross-media approach and our diversity re-ranking techniques developped in past sessions, can perform well on a new challenging corpus. It turns out that the material that we describe in this paper both made of new and already well-established techniques allow to perform very well on those two tasks since the results we obtained with the systems we designed are top ranked.

XRCE's Participation to ImageCLEF 2008
This year, our participation to ImageCLEF 2008 (Photo Retrieval sub-task) was motivated by trying to address three different problems: visual concept detection and its exploitation in a retrieval context, multimedia fusion methods for improved retrieval performance and diversity-based re-ranking methods. From a purely visual perspective, the representation based on Fisher vectors derived from a...

This year, XRCE participated in three main tasks of ImageCLEF 2010. The Visual Concept Detection and Annotation Task is presented in a separate paper. In this working note, we rather focus on our participation in the Wikipedia Retrieval Task and in two sub-tasks of the Medical Retrieval Task (Image Modality Classification and Ad-hoc Image Retrieval). We investigated mono-modal (textual and visu...

This paper describes our participation at ImageCLEF 2009. We participated in the photographic retrieval task (ImageCLEFPhoto). Our method is based on intermedia pseudo-relevance feedback. We have enhanced the pseudo-relevance feedback mechanism by using semantic selectional restrictions. We use Terrier for text retrieval and our own simple block-based visual retrieval engine. The results obtain...
متن کاملLEAR and XRCE's Participation to Visual Concept Detection Task - ImageCLEF 2010
In this paper we present the common effort of Lear and XRCE for the ImageCLEF Visual Concept Detection and Annotation Task. We first sought to combine our individual state-of-the-art approaches: the Fisher vector image representation, with the TagProp method for image auto-annotation. Our second motivation was to investigate the annotation performance by using extra information in the form of p...
