To solve the problem of indexing collections with diverse text documents, image documents, or documents with both text and images, one needs to develop a model that supports heterogeneous types of documents.
In this paper, we show how information theory supplies us with the tools necessary to develop a unique model for text, image, and text/image retrieval. In our approach, for each possible query keyword we estimate a maximum entropy model based on exclusively continuous features that were pre-processed. The unique continuous feature-space of text and visual data is constructed by using a minimum description length criterion to find the optimal feature-space representation (optimal from an information theory point of view). We evaluate our approach in three
experiments: only text retrieval, only image retrieval, and text combined with image retrieval.

Narrative Hypermedia is...
Hypermedia is the combination of hypertext for linking and structuring multimedia information.
Narrative Hypermedia is therefore concerned with how all of the above narrative forms, plus the many other diverse forms of discourse possible on the Web, can be effectively designed to communicate coherent conceptual structures, drawing inspiration from theories in narratology, semiotics, psycholinguistics and film.
