The new European Project APIDIS launched
APIDIS will investigate the automatic extraction of intelligent content from networks of multi-modal sensors. It will exploit the knowledge to automate the production of video content for controlled scenarios (sports events or surveillance). The project will also consider personalised and potentially interactive content summarization mechanisms to address heterogeneous user needs and access conditions. APIDIS will develop applications that are cost-effective and fully automated for production of content dedicated to small-audience (e.g. personal recordings, university lectures etc.) and also automated summarization for video surveillance. Barcelona Media will pursue research in two main areas: user interaction and artificial intelligence. It will also provide the administrative management for APIDIS. The project’s Scientific Coordinator is Université Catholique de Louvain of Belgium. The APIDIS project partners are: Université catholique de Louvain, UCL, Belguim Queen Mary& Westfield College, University of London, QMUL, United Kingdom Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, EPFL, Switzerland Barcelona Media – Innovation Centre, BMCI, Spain ACIC sa, ACIC, Belgium Mediapro, MP, Spain
