Multimedia information retrieval on the social web

  • Abstract

    Efforts have been made to obtain more accurate results for multimedia searches on the Web. Nevertheless, not all multimedia objects have related text descriptions available. This makes bridging the semantic gap more difficult. Approaches that combine context and content information of multimedia objects are the most popular for indexing and later retrieving these objects. However, scaling these techniques to Web environments is still an open problem. In this thesis, we propose the use of user-generated content (UGC) from the Web and social platforms as well as multimedia content information to describe the context of multimedia objects. We aim to design tag-oriented algorithms to automatically tag multimedia objects, filter irrelevant tags, and cluster tags in semantically-related groups. The novelty of our proposal is centered on the design of Web-scalable algorithms that enrich multimedia context using the social information provided by users as a result of their interaction with multimedia objects. We validate the results of our proposal with a large-scale evaluation in crowdsourcing platforms.
