INTRODUCTION

Multimedia content has become ubiquitous on the web, creating new
challenges for indexing, access, search and retrieval. At the same
time, much of this content is made available on content sharing
websites such as YouTube or Flickr, or shared on social networks like
Facebook. In such environments, the content is usually accompanied
with metadata, tags, ratings, comments, information about the uploader
and their social network, etc. Analysis of these "social media" shows
a great potential in improving the performance of traditional
multimedia information analysis/retrieval approaches by bridging the
semantic gap between the "objective" multimedia content analysis and
"subjective" users' needs and impressions. The integration of these
aspects, however, is non-trivial and has created a vibrant,
interdisciplinary field of research. The main objective of this book
is to provide in-depth knowledge that explicitly exploits the synergy
between multimedia content analysis, personalization, and next
generation networking and community aspects of social networks. We
believe that this integration could result in robust, personalized
multimedia services, providing users with an improved multimedia
centric quality of experience (QoE) awareness. In response to the
booming developments in social networks, this edited book intends to
keep readers abreast of the current research and development trends in
this area by bringing together high quality chapters.

Objective of the book

This edited book is anticipated to be an assortment of tutorials,
surveys, and original contributions that concentrate on the most
contemporary advances in social media retrieval. The principle
aspiration of this edited book is not only to cover the theoretical
and practical fundamentals, but also cover the state-of-the-art
techniques and challenges of the subject area. A number of promising
developments and innovative guidelines will also be explained in this
edited book with the aim of motivating further work and providing an
informative overview for academic research and practice.
