Proceedings ArticleDOI

A new approach to cross-modal multimedia retrieval

TL;DR: It is shown that accounting for cross-modal correlations and semantic abstraction both improve retrieval accuracy and are shown to outperform state-of-the-art image retrieval systems on a unimodal retrieval task.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the Role of Correlation and Abstraction in Cross-Modal Multimedia Retrieval

TL;DR: A mathematical formulation equating the design of cross-modal retrieval systems to that of isomorphic feature spaces for different content modalities is proposed, finding that both hypotheses hold, in a complementary form, although evidence in favor of the abstraction hypothesis is stronger than that for correlation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clustering Dynamic Textures with the Hierarchical EM Algorithm for Modeling Video

TL;DR: This paper derives a new algorithm for clustering DT models that is based on the hierarchical EM algorithm, and demonstrates the efficacy of the clustering algorithm on several applications in motion analysis, including hierarchical motion clustering, semantic motion annotation, and bag-of-systems codebook generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time Series Models for Semantic Music Annotation

TL;DR: A novel approach to automatic music annotation and retrieval that captures temporal aspects as well as timbral content, and a novel, efficient, and hierarchical expectation-maximization algorithm for DTM (HEM-DTM) is used to summarize the common information shared by DTMs modeling individual songs associated with a tag.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clustering hidden Markov models with variational HEM

TL;DR: A novel algorithm to cluster HMMs based on the hierarchical EM (HEM) algorithm, which effectively leverages large amounts of data when learning annotation models by using an efficient hierarchical estimation procedure, which reduces learning times and memory requirements, while improving model robustness through better regularization.
