Abstract:
Abstract Growth in storage capacity has led to large digital video repositories and complicated the discovery of specific information without the laborious manual annotation of data. The research focuses on creating a retrieval system that is ultimately independent of manual work. To retrieve relevant content, the semantic gap between the searcher's information need and the content data has to be overcome using content-based technology. Semantic gap constitutes of two distinct elements: the ambiguity of the true information need and the equivocalness of digital video data. The research probl

Abstract:
With a multitude of images available on the Internet, how do we find what we are looking for? This project tries to determine how much the precision and recall of search queries is improved by using a word taxonomy on traditional Text-Based Image Search and Content-Based Image Search. By applying a word taxonomy to different data sources, a strong keyword filter and a keyword extender were implemented and tested. The results show that depending on the implementation, the precision or the recall can be increased. By using a similar approach on real life implementations, it is possible to force

Abstract:
The thesis presents a system for content based image retrieval and mining. The research presents a design of a scalable solution for efficient retrieval of images from large image databases using image features such as color, shape and texture. A framework for automatic labeling of images and clustering of meta data in database based on the dominant shapes, textures and colors in the image is proposed. The thesis also presents a new image tagging methodology to annotate the dominant image features to the image as meta data. The users of this system can input a query image and select similar

Through a little investigation by file types it is possible to easily find that one of the most popular search engines has in its indexes about 10 billion of images.

This so exorbitant number puts us in the face of the enormous difficulties encountered when one has to deal with them.

Abstract:
In content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems, there are two general types of search: target search and category search. Unlike queries in traditional database systems, users in most cases cannot specify an ideal query to retrieve the desired results for either target search or category search in multimedia database systems, and have to rely on iterative feedback to refine their query. Efficient evaluation of such iterative queries can be a challenge, especially when the multimedia database contains a large number of entries, and the search needs many iterations, and when the underlying dist

Inefficiencies associated with online information search are becoming increasingly prevalent in digital environments due to a surge in Consumer Generated Content (CGC). Despite growing scholarly interest in investigating users' information search behavior in CGC environments, there is a paucity of studies that explores the phenomenon from a theory-guided angle. Drawing on Information Foraging Theory (IFT), we re-conceptualize online information search as a form of adaptive user behavior in response to system design constraints.

Abstract:
Représenter l'information décrivant la musique est une activité complexe, qui implique différentes sous-tâches. Ce manuscrit de thèse porte principalement sur la musique classique et étudie comment représenter et exploiter ses informations. L'objectif principal est l'étude de stratégies de représentation et de découverte des connaissances appliquées à la musique classique, dans des domaines tels que la production de base de connaissances, la prédiction de métadonnées et les systèmes de recommandation. Nous proposons une architecture pour la gestion des métadonnées de musique à l'aide des techn

Abstract:
Although educational content in electronic form is increasing dramatically, its usage in an educational environment is poor, mainly due to the fact that there is too much of (unreliable) redundant, and not relevant information. Finding appropriate answers is a rather difficult task being reliant on the user filtering of the pertinent information from the noise. Turning knowledge bases like the online tele-TASK archive into useful educational resources requires identifying correct, reliable, and "machine-understandable" information, as well as developing simple but efficient search tools with t

Abstract:
Informationssökningar av olika slag sker dagligen världen över och sökresultatet kan många gånger vara så stort att användarna har svårt att veta vilka sökresultat som är relevanta. I denna uppsats har syftet varit att undersöka hur sökresultat kan filtreras och sorteras med hjälp av platsbaserad sökning för att det ska bli mer relevant för användaren. Genom litteraturstudie och intervjuer har det blivit möjligt att ta reda på hur ett sökresultat skulle kunna filtreras och sorteras för att möta användarnas förväntningar. De teorier och slutsatser som framkom tillämpa

Abstract:
This report proposes a new method for searching and retrieving a dynamically changing border using robotic multi-agent systems as an extension to the patrolling task - the problem of coordinating autonomous agents patrolling a border. The proposed method is a decentralized and self-organizing system built in the framework of the Null-Space-Based behavioral control and is controlled by a Finite State supervisor. The system encourages cooperation among the agents without the use of explicit and direct communication and from the simple interactions between agents the system hopes to emerge a glob

Abstract:
A Peer-to-Peer (P2P) platform is considered for collaborative Information Retrieval (IR). Each peer hosts a collection of text documents with subjects related to its owner's interests. Without a global indexing mechanism, peers locally index their documents, and provide the service to answer queries. A decentralized protocol is designed, enabling the peers to collaboratively forward queries from the initiator to the peers with relevant documents. Semantic Overlay Network (SON) is one of the state-of-the-art solutions, where peers with semantically similar resources are clustered. IR can the
