MOQL: A Multimedia Object Query Language
John Z. Li,Vincent Oria +1 more
TL;DR: A general multimedia query language, called MOQL, based on ODMG's Object Query Language (OQL), which includes constructs to capture the temporal and spatial relationships in multimedia data as well as functions for query presentation.

Modeling video temporal relationships in an object database management system
TL;DR: This paper presents a unique way of integrating the video model into an object database management system which has rich multimedia temporal operations, and shows how temporal histories are used to model video data, and explore the video object base using object-oriented techniques.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Spatial Reasoning Rules in Multimedia Management Systems
TL;DR: A representation of spatial objects for both topological and directional relations based on Allen's temporal interval algebra is presented and a set of spatial inference rules are presented, which allow us to make heterogeneous spatial relation deductions from existing directional and topological relations.
Modeling and querying multimedia data
M. Tamer Özsu,John Z. Li +1 more
TL;DR: The establishment of a multimedia data model provides a theoretical foundation that is used to investigate multimedia query languages and the result is a general-purpose, object-oriented multimedia query language which supports content-based information retrieval.
Query Languages in Multimedia Database Systems
TL;DR: This report surveys multimedia query languages and query models from the point of view of well-deened queries, fuzzy queries, visual queries, and query presentations and considers vital issues for the success and development of a multimedia query language.
