For the instance search task, we are given a set of query images with the corresponding textual meta-data and objects masks to retrieve video shots containing query objects from FLICKR video database. We extract meaningful regions in the key-frames using Maximally Stable Extremal Regions (MSER) and use SIFT descriptors for representation. We use standard Bag of visual Word (BoW) model to repres...

This paper discusses the benefits of combining metamodelling and graph transformations to automatically generate modelling tools for simulation formalisms. In metamodelling, formalisms are modelled in their own right at a meta-level within an appropriate meta-formalism. A meta-model processor uses this information to automatically generate tools to process –create, edit, check, optimize, transf...

A Use Case is a specification of interactions involving a system and external actors of that system. The capability for use case modeling has been integrated to the Unified Modeling Language (UML) since its inception. However, use cases are only defined at an abstract level, as the UML Specification does not discuss use case description in text form. In this paper, we propose an abstract syntax...

This research tried to analyze and discuss about kinds functions of sign found in movie “The Hitman’s Bodyguard”. used some theories support the research, were taken from books entitled “Semiotic For Beginners” written by Daniel Chandler Introducing English Semantic Charles W. Kreidler (1998). The data American collected observation method. Signs can also be they appear various with different m...

This paper describes an approach to creating textual syntax for Domain-Specific Languages (DSL). We consider target meta-model to be the main artifact and hence to be developed first. The key idea is to represent analysis of textual syntax as a sequence of transformations. This is made by explicit operations on abstract syntax trees (ATS), for which a simple language is proposed. Text-to-model ...

Online reviews of tourism services provide valuable resources of knowledge not only for travelers but also for companies. Tourism operators are more and more aware that user related data should be seen as an important asset. This work-in-progress analyzes free text reviews as well as numerical ratings of group tours with the aim to characterize their relations. This is done with the help of sta...

Today, the syntax of visual specification languages such as UML is typically defined using meta-modelling techniques. However, this kind of syntax definition has drawbacks. In particular, graphic meta-models are not powerful enough, so they must be augmented by a textual constraint language. As an alternative, we present in this paper, a text-based technique for the syntax definition of a graph...

Cross language-image retrieval is a problem of high interest that is at the frontier between computer vision and natural language processing. State-of-the-art methods learn a common space with regard to some constraints of correlation or similarity from two textual and visual modalities that are processed in parallel and possibly jointly. This paper proposes a different approach that considers ...

The following formalization is inspired from [2]. We first describe notations, assumptions, and meta-variables required for defining the abstract syntax and the semantics of the MultiDim model. Next, we give the abstract syntax of the model that allows the translation from the graphical representation to the equivalent textual representation. Finally, after describing the auxiliary functions, w...
