Managing multimodal annotations of an image

摘要

Methods and computer readable mediums storing computer executable programs for managing multimodal annotations of an image are disclosed. A first communication channel is established between a first machine and a mobile device. A first hierarchical data structure generated by the mobile device is received at the first machine. The first hierarchical data structure includes an image annotated with at least one multimodal annotation. A representation of the first hierarchical data structure is rendered at the first machine. At least one multimodal annotation modification associated with the image is received at the first machine. The at least one multimodal annotation modification is incorporated into the first hierarchical data structure thereby generating a second hierarchical data structure.

1. A method of managing multimodal annotations of images, the method comprising:
establishing a first communication channel between a first machine and a mobile device; receiving a first hierarchical data structure based on an image captured by the mobile device at the first machine, the image being annotated with at least one multimodal annotation, wherein the first hierarchical data structure comprises the image designated as a base image, the base image comprising the at least one multimodal annotation being represented by at least one multimodal annotation object, and a base image of the at least one multimodal object comprising any additional multimodal annotations being represented as additional multimodal objects; rendering a representation of the first hierarchical data structure at the first machine; receiving at least one multimodal annotation modification associated with the image at the first machine; incorporating the at least one multimodal annotation modification into the first hierarchical data structure thereby generating a second hierarchical data structure; establishing a second communication channel between the first machine and the mobile device; and transmitting the second hierarchical data structure from the first machine to the mobile device via the second communication channel.
