  1. MPEG-7Multimedia Content Description InterfacePresented by: Moustafa A. Hammad

  2. Introduction • More and more digital audio - visual information exists and increasing. • Increasing Internet popularity . • More audio-visual information processing systems emerged. How fast and easy can desirable information be made available? MPEG-1 “Standard for storage and retrieval” MPEG-2 “The digital television standard” MPEG-4 “ Multimedia production, distribution and content access” - developed a Syntactic Description Language. “ Fine - where is the semantic?”

  3. Introduction (Cont.) • MPEG-7 “ Multimedia content description interface”. • Represents information about the contents, but not the content itself. • Satisfies both database and signal processing communities. • Goal: audio-visual material as searchable as text. • What is the standard? (To be finalized mid 2001)

  4. Topics of Discussion • Scope of the standard • Terminology • Interaction between MPEG-7 and Applications. • Requirements • Applications • Case study : A Proposal for MPEG-7 Description Definition.

  5. Standard Description Description production Description consumption Scope of the Standard • MPEG-7 processing chain: • feature extraction (analysis) • the description itself • the search engines (application) • What is in the standard?

  6.

  8. MPEG-7 Requirements Descriptors:(Cross modularity, Direct data manipulation, Data adaptation, Language of text based descriptions, Linking, Prioritization of related information, Unique identification) Description Schemes:( Description Scheme relationships, Prioritization of descriptors, Hierarchy of descriptors, Scalability of descriptors, Description of temporal range, Data adaptation) DDL: (Compositional capabilities, Unique identification, Primitive/composite data types, Multiple media types, Relationships between description and data, Grammar, Intellectual Property Management and Protection (IPMP), Real time support …..Etc.) Descriptors requirement: • General: (Types of features [N-dimensional spatio-temporal structure, Objectives, subjective, Production, composition, Concepts], Referencing analogue data,…..Etc.)

  9. MPEG-7 Requirements (Cont.) • Functional: ( Retrieval effectiveness, similarity-base retrieval ….Etc.) • Coding: (Description efficient representation, Description extraction…Etc.) • Visual specific: (Types of features (color, texture, sketch…), Visual data formats…Etc.) • Audio specific: (Types of features (Frequency contour, Harmony…), Auditory data formats…Etc.) • Text specific: (Text retrieval, consistency of text description tools) (Types of features (Frequency contour, Harmony…), Auditory data formats…Etc.) System requirement: (multiplexing, Temporal synchronization, File format, IPMP…Etc.) Ref: MPEG Requirement Group, “MPEG-7 Requirement”, Doc, ISO/MPEG N2859, MPEG Vancouver Meeting, July 1999.

  10. MPEG-7 Applications • Pull applications: • video retrieval: (storage and retrieval of video database. Sound effects library, historical speech database…Etc.) • Push applications: • video selection and filtering:( Personalized television services, information access facilities for people with special needs..Etc.) • Specialized professional and control applications. (Remote sensing applications, Surveillance applications..Etc.)

  11. A proposal for an MPEG-7 Description Definition language (DDL) • Reference: [J. Hunter (DSTC)] • A schema is based on different schemas; Resource Description Framework (RDF) Schema, XML Document Type Descriptors (DTD), Document Content Description (DCD), A Schema for Object-Oriented XML (SOX). • Satisfies The DDL requirements. • Consists of classes, properties and relations between classes. • Uses of Dublin Core (DC) attributes. (Name, Identifier, Version, Registration Authority, Language, Definition, Obligation, Datatype, Maximum Occurrence, Comment)

  13. Features of the proposed MPEG-7 DDL • Namespace Declarations <x xmlns:dc=“http://purl.org/metadata/dublin_core#”> <!-- the ”dc" prefix is bound to http://purl.org/metadata/dublin_core for the "x" element and contents --> <dc:Title> CNN News </ dc:Title> </x> • The Class Type declarations and Class Hierarchies <class id=“MM_Document”> <property type = “#dc_attribs”/> </class> <class id=“Video_Document”> <subclassof type=“#MM_Document” /> <property type = “duration”/> </class>

  14. Features ….. (Cont.) • Property type declaration <propertyType id=“frameNum” datatype=“int”/>, <propertyType id=“secs” datatype=“float”/> <propertyType id=“timestamp”> <Alt> <property type =“#frameNum”> <property type =“#secs”> </Alt> </propertType> • The relationship type declaration <realtionType id=“contains” direction=“uni” inverse=“#contained_by”> <domain type=“#MM_Document’/> <range type=“#MM_Document” occurs=“zerormore” order=“Seq”/> <constraint type=“boolean” value= “((range[1].start>=domain.start)&&range[n].end <= domain.end ) )”/> </relationType> <class id=“scene”> <subclassof type=“#MM_Document” /> <property type = “#dc_attribs”/> <relation type=“contains” range=“#object”/> </class>

  15. Features ….. (Cont.) • Order and Occurs (Seq, Bag, Alt, Par) • Data typing & user defined datatypes • Attribute Definitions: <attributeType id=“src” datatype=“uri”/> • Synchronization and temporal specification <seq> <audio_track src=“audio1”/> <audio_track begin=“5s” src=“audio2”/> </seq> • Spatial specification • Both rectangle and polygon representation, HTML syntax and semantics. Audio1 5s Audio2

  16. Example: MPEG-7 description …………………. <MM_Document src = http://………./test.mpg> <!-- other properties> <contains> <Par> <Seq id=“vidoe_sequences”> <sequence id=“seq1” src=“http://…….” /> <!-- other sequences> </Seq> <Seq id=“audio_tracks”> <Audio id=“speech” src=“test.ra”/> <!-- other audios> </Seq> </Par> </contains> <sequence id=‘seq1” src=“http://…..”/> ……… <contains> <Seq> <Scene id=“scene1” src=“http://…….” /> <!-- other scenes> </Seq> </contains> …………………………………………………….. <!-- declaration od shots, frames and objects/> ……………..…………………………………….. <Object id=“#car” src=“http://……………../test.jpg#car”> ……….. <DC.Description.text>”A red car which has been severely damaged by the exposition.” </DC.Description.text>” ………... </object>

  17. Conclusion • The proposed DDL provides most of the DDL requirement. • There are some remarks: • Lack of provision to push applications: (filtering and selection, real time support) • No representation for subjective and concept features. • Simple representation and support for spatial features.
