Abstract

This demo showcases our system which classifies a collection of pictures into events and its individual images into subevents. We reach this goal by analysizing visual features with an efficient implementation of a Bag-of-Words method and by leveraging time information both for events and sub-events. The system allows the user to analyze a collection of images - named as event-album - from disk or from internet sharing services such as Picasa and Flickr. The results are displayed in a web-browser window allowing the user to view the pictures of the entire recognized event, as well as their recognised sub-events.

Exploitation of time constraints for (sub-)event recognition
J-MRE '11: Proceedings of the 2011 joint ACM workshop on Modeling and representing events

The aim of this paper is threefold: (a) to introduce a dataset for the recognition of events and sub-events in photographs taken by common users; (b) to propose event-based classification to achieve a more accurate labeling of event-related photo ...
Simultaneous Events and the “Once-Only” Effect
Proceedings of the 2006 conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems: Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference (FOIS 2006)

Some events recur, and some happen only once. Galton refers to the latter as “once-only” events [1]. In a first-order logic of events that makes a type-token distinction, the possibility of concurrent occurrences of the same event renders the ...
Optimal Bundling of Events
This paper derives optimal bundling strategies for events of potentially different popularity held over time.
We examine a seller’s optimal bundling strategy when it sells two events offered over time. Given the temporal and perishability features of events, a bundle can be sold only in the first period, and the first-period event is unavailable later. We ...
