Abstract:

This article describes a framework for distributed multimedia retrieval which permits the connection of compliant user interfaces with a variety of multimedia retrieval engines via an open communication protocol, MRML (Multi Media Retrieval Markup Language). It allows the choice of image collection, feature set and query algorithm during run{time, permitting multiple users to query a system adapted to their needs, using the query paradigm adapted to their problem such as query by example (QBE), browsing queries, or query by annotation. User interaction is implemented over several levels and in diverse ways. Relevance feedback is implemented using positive and negative example images that can be used for a best{match QBE query. In contrast, browsing methods try to approach the searched image by giving overviews of the entire collection and by successive renement. In addition to these query methods, Long term o line learning is implemented. It allows feature preferences per user, user domain or over all users to be learned automatically. We present the Viper multimedia retrieval system as the core of the framework and an example of an MRML{compliant search engine. Viper uses techniques adapted from traditional
