KMi Seminars
An Adaptive Four-factor User Interaction Model for Content-Based Image Retrieval
This event took place on Wednesday 23 September 2009 at 00:00

 
Haiming Liu

In order to bridge the "Semantic gap", a number of relevance feedback (RF) mechanisms have been applied to content-based image retrieval (CBIR). However current RF techniques in most existing CBIR systems still lack satisfactory user interaction although some work has been done to improve the interaction as well as the search accuracy. Thus, we propose a four-factor user interaction model and investigate its effects on CBIR by an empirical and a user evaluation. Whilst the model was developed for our research purposes, we believe the model could be adapted to any content-based search system.

Knowledge Management is...


Knowledge Management
Creating learning organisations hinges on managing knowledge at many levels. Knowledge can be provided by individuals or it can be created as a collective effort of a group working together towards a common goal, it can be situated as "war stories" or it can be generalised as guidelines, it can be described informally as comments in a natural language, pictures and technical drawings or it can be formalised as mathematical formulae and rules, it can be expressed explicitly or it can be tacit, embedded in the work product. The recipient of knowledge - the learner - can be an individual or a work group, professionals, university students, schoolchildren or informal communities of interest.
Our aim is to capture, analyse and organise knowledge, regardless of its origin and form and make it available to the learner when needed presented with the necessary context and in a form supporting the learning processes.
