Reveal this: retrieval of video and language for the home user in an information society

Objective

REVEAL THIS addresses a basic need underlying content organisation, filtering, consumption and enjoyment by developing content programming systems that will help European citizens keep up with the explosion of digital content scattered over different platforms (radio, TV, World Wide Web, etc), different media (speech, text, image, video) and different languages. People should be spending most of their leisure time enjoying the content, not searching for it. REVEAL THIS aims at developing content programming technology able to capture, semantically index, categorise and cross-link multi-platform, multimedia and multilingual digital content, as well as provide the system user with semantic search, retrieval, summarisation and translation functionalities. Content providers will use the technology to offer personalized content as a service, while the end-user version will be embedded in a Personalized Entertainment System (PES) that largely relieves users from tedious search for valuable content.

The innovative aspects of the project spring out of the main scientific and technological challenges:
1) semantic enrichment of multilingual multimedia content with topic, entity and fact information relevant to user profiles;
2) development of suitable cross-language, cross-media representations; and
3) deployment of the above in building search, retrieval, classification and summarization capabilities.

We will exploit explicit cross-media links and implicit links uncovered by methods such as latent semantic analysis and kernel canonical correlation analysis. Adequate cross-language capabilities (cross-language information retrieval, categorization and machine translation of indicative summaries) will be provided by the latest statistical machine translation technology. REVEAL THIS is bringing together deep expertise in each component technology (speech, text, image and video processing) in an exciting cross-disciplinary challenge.
