Image retrieval by word association

Dr. Philip Edmonds Sharp Laboratories of Europe
Have you ever wanted to find an image or sound to illustrate an abstract concept? Or an image that is metaphorically associated with some text rather than described by the text? This talk will present research on how one can retrieve (text-annotated) images that are related in various ways to a text query, and organize them in a user interface. The method identifies various possible 'interpretations' of the input query using word sense disambiguation techniques (i.e., clustering), and generates an expanded query for each interpretation. The research is an application of lexical association scores (including co-occurrence and similarity scores). This kind of search could eventually have applications in better image search engines, or in the automatic illustration of news articles.

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.
