===== Special Sessions ==================================
The following six special sessions will be held at MMM 2017:
SS1: CrowdMM: Crowdsourcing for Multimedia SS2: Social Media Retrieval and Recommendation SS3: Modeling Multimedia Behaviors SS4: Multimedia Computing for Intelligent Life SS5: Multimedia and E-Learning SS6: Multimedia and Multimodal Interaction for Health and Basic Care Applications
For more details, see the brief description below or follow the links to the more detailed description.
SS1: CrowdMM: Crowdsourcing for Multimedia [G. Gravier, M. Lux and M. Riegler] The power of crowds—leveraging the capabilities of a large number of human contributors—has enormous potential for multimedia research, but exploiting crowdsourcing to achieve solid results remains difficult. For this special session we seek contributions that address the fundamental challenges of crowdsourcing that prevent widespread adoption of crowdsourcing paradigms in the multimedia community. Topics of interest include: - New applications of crowdsourcing, such as affection and intent - Social media and game techniques in crowdsourcing - Methodological issues for crowdsourcing studies, such as human factors and repeatability http://mmm2017.ru.is/index.php/special-session-1-crowdmm/
SS2: Social Media Retrieval and Recommendation [L. Nie, Y. Yan, B. Huet] This special session aims to call for contributions on solutions, models and theories that tackle the key issues in searching, recommending and discovering multimedia content, as well as a variety of multimedia applications based on search and recommendation technologies. Topics of interest include: - Indexing, ranking and reranking of social media - Entity search and recommendation in social media environments - Representation and deep learning for social media data http://mmm2017.ru.is/index.php/special-session-2-social-media-retrieval-and-...
SS3: Modeling Multimedia Behaviors [P. Wang, F. Hopfgartner, L. Bai] This special session focuses on the most recent progress on modeling multimedia behavior from various aspects of human factors, such as interacting with multimedia contents, human behavior detection and recognition, behavioral mining and prediction, multimedia content distribution and streaming, etc. Topics of interest include: - Behavior mining/monitoring using multimedia - Interfaces and interaction with multimedia - Multimedia sharing/streaming based on behavior models http://mmm2017.ru.is/index.php/special-session-3-modeling-multimedia-behavio...
SS4: Multimedia Computing for Intelligent Life [Z. Chen, W. Zhang, T. Yao, K.-L. Hua, W.-H. Cheng] Recent advancement in multimedia computing has opened many avenues for multimedia computing towards more intelligent daily life. Thus, innovative algorithms as well as systems that aim at better understanding and enhancing multimedia signals regarding to intelligent life are warmly welcomed. Topics of interest include: - Multimedia Signal Processing for Intelligent Life - Machine Learning and Pattern Recognition for Intelligent Life - Multimodal Signal Representation, Analysis and Visualization for Intelligent Life http://mmm2017.ru.is/index.php/special-session-4-multimedia-computing-for-in...
SS5: Multimedia and E-Learning [V. Oria, A.G. Hauptmann] Ever since multimedia has started to coalesce as a field, there has been the vision that it would be useful for education. However, the reality is that progress had been slow compared to other advances in the field. - Learning media content analysis - Support for audio/visual lecture summarization, segmentation and chaptering - Multimodal (slides, notes, lectures, etc) course material alignment http://mmm2017.ru.is/index.php/special-session-5-multimedia-and-e-learning/
SS6 – Multimedia and Multimodal Interaction for Health and Basic Care Applications [S. Vrochidis, L. Wanner, E. André, K. Schoeffmann] This special session targets the most recent results and applications in the area of multimedia analysis and multimodal interaction for health and basic care. Of special interest are autonomous human-like social agents that can analyze information and learn from conversational spoken and multimodal interaction, as well as multimedia systems that support exploration of videos from medical endoscopy. Topics of interest include: - Multimedia analysis and retrieval for multimodal interaction in the health domain - Multimodal conversation and knowledge-based systems for social companion agents - Content exploration and retrieval in endoscopic video http://mklab.iti.gr/mmih/
===== Video Browser Showdown ===========================
The Video Browser Showdown (VBS) is an annual live video search competition, where international researchers evaluate and demonstrate the efficiency of their exploratory video retrieval tools on a shared data set in front of the audience.
VBS has been organized as a special session MMM since 2012. In this special session the participating teams start with a quick presentation of their video search systems and then perform several video retrieval tasks with a moderately large video collection. This year, VBS will collaborate with the TRECVID Ad-Hoc search task and use the same data set of about 600 hours of video content.
The aim of the Video Browser Showdown is to evaluate video browsing tools for their efficiency at “Known Item Search” (KIS) tasks with a well-defined data set in direct comparison with other tools. For each KIS task the searchers need to interactively find a short video clip (20 secs) in the video collection within a specific time limit. While the video data is distributed before the event, the tasks are presented on-site via a projector (either as a video clip itself, or as a textual description).
