Multi-Dimensional Realization of Visual Content of an Image Collection

摘要

A computing system for realizing visual content of an image collection executes feature detection algorithms and semantic reasoning techniques on the images in the collection to elicit a number of different types of visual features of the images. The computing system indexes the visual features and provides technologies for multi-dimensional content-based clustering, searching, and iterative exploration of the image collection using the visual features and/or the visual feature indices.

主权项

1. A computing system for understanding the content of a collection of visual media files comprising one or more of digital images and digital videos, the computing system comprising a plurality of instructions embodied in one or more non-transitory machine accessible storage media and executable by one or more computing devices to cause the computing system to:
execute a plurality of different feature detection algorithms on the collection of visual media files; elicit, based on the execution of the feature detection algorithms, a plurality of different visual features depicted in the visual media files; and
cluster the visual media files by, for each of the visual media files in the collection: computing a plurality of similarity measures, each similarity measure representing a measurement of similarity of visual content of the visual media file to one of the visual features elicited as a result of the execution of the feature detection algorithms; and associating the visual media file with a visual feature based on the similarity measure computed for the visual media file with respect to the visual feature.
