SAMT 2010 - SAMT 2010 : 5th International Conference on Semantic and Digital Media Technologies

Objectives and Topics

Large amounts of multimedia material, such as images, audio, video, and 3D/4D material, as well as computer generated 2D, 3D, and 4D content, already exist and are growing at increasing rates. While these amounts are growing, managing distribution of and access to multimedia material is becoming ever harder, both for lay and professional users.

The SAMT conference series tackles these problems by investigating the semantics and pragmatics of multimedia generation, management, and user access. The conference targets scientifically valuable research tackling the semantic gap between the low-level signal data representation of multimedia material and the high-level meaning that providers, consumers, and prosumers associate with the content.

We welcome innovative solutions that consider some or all factors in the process of multimedia generation and consumption, including methods from low-level signal processing up to the mobile context in which a user operates. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

SEMANTIC ANALYSIS AND MULTIMEDIA

Knowledge assisted multimedia analysis
Content-based multimedia analysis linked with natural language and speech processing
