Project Name: Multimedia Indexing & Retrieval on the basis of Image Processing & Language and Speech Technology
Abbreviation: DRUID Start date:
January 1, 1998 End date:
December 31, 2003 Project Description:
DRUID aims at the development of tools for the indexing and retrieval
of multimedia content. The research will advance existing insights and
deploy the potential synergy between technologies from various
expertise domains: language & speech technology, image processing and
database technology. In terms of the objects to be made available for
retrieval, the project will cover continuous objects containing text
and/or speech elements (e.g. video and audio fragments), as well as
static objects, ranging from paper documents and textually annotated
images, to web pages. Both fundamental research, as well as
prototyping, tools testing and usability studies are part of the work
plan.
Project Funding
DRUID is a project within the scientific program of the Telematica
Instituut. This institute is co-funded by the Dutch government and a
number of industrial partners with the aim to advance state of the art
in the area of ICT.
