Notes:
The Informedia Project, funded by the first NSF Digital Libraries Initiative, pioneered strategies for the automatic, full-content indexing and retrieval of video documents, and applied them to more than a terabyte of online video data.
The Informedia-II Project, also funded by NSF in the Digital Libraries Initiative Phase 2, continues the pursuit of search and discovery in the video medium. This phase will transform the paradigm for accessing digital video libraries through meaningful, manipulable overviews of video document sets, multimodal queries, and adaptive summarizations of very large amounts of video from heterogeneous distributed sources. Video information collages are the key technology in Informedia-II and will be built by advancing information visualization research to effectively deal with multiple video documents.
