Southampton has a long history of research in the areas of multimedia information analysis. This talk will focus on some of the recent work we have been involved with in the area of image search. The talk will start by looking at how image content can be represented in ways analogous to textual information and how techniques developed for indexing text can be adapted to images. In particular, the talk will introduce ImageTerrier, a research platform for image retrieval that is built around the University of Glasgow's Terrier text retrieval software. The talk will also cover some of our recent work on image classification and image search result diversification.
Maven of the Month
We are also inviting top experts in AI and Knowledge Technologies to discuss major socio-technological topics with an audience that comprises both members of the Knowledge Media Institute, as well as the wider staff at The Open University. Differently from our seminar series, these events follow a Q&A format.
