  1. Presentation of the W3CMedia Annotations Working GroupActivities February 2009 Lausanne, Switzerland Víctor Rodríguez, Jaime Delgado, Rubén Tous Distributed Multimedia Applications Group Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya on behalf of: W3C Media Annotations Working Group

  2. Introduction • W3C Web Video Group: to make video a "first class citizen" of the Web • Timed Text Working Group • Media Fragments Working Group • Media Annotations Working Group • Media Annotations Working Group (MAGW): to provide an ontology and API designed to facilitate cross-community data integration of information related to media objects in the Web, such as video, (audio and images). • M16031: Liaison Statement from W3C to MPEG (06/12/2008)

  3. Working policies • Meetings: • Weekly teleconference • Every 3 months approx., face to face meeting • Decisions:taken mostly by consensus • Participants: About 25 people from 13 organizations (both industry and university) • Patents: W3C seeks to issue Recommendations that can be implemented on a Royalty-Free basis

  4. MAGW Vision • User sees an API, simple • handling only texts and URI • (no special knowledge on • Semantic Web required) • An Ontology relates the • different metadata formats • (this is hidden to the user) • Mapping is provided by MAGW

  5. Some formats in sight • Formats: • XMP. This is the articulating base • DublinCore • ID3 (metadata in audio) • EXIF (metadata in images) • Media RSS • IPTC (news) • MPEG7 • TV-Anytime • FRBR (multilevel description) • Youtube Data API Protocol • Other: SMPTE, LOM, METS, Cablelabs ADI 2.0, MIX, VRA etc.

  6. Documents • Ontology for Media Object Use Cases and Requirements • Ontology for Media Object 1.0 • API for Media Object 1.0 • Other deliverables: • A W3C Working Group Note for mapping the ontology to existing standards and solutions. • Collection of a corpus of metadata to demonstrate the mapping and translation. • Implementation and interoperability reports. • Tutorial or primer resources (if suitable and if resources are available). • Propose eventually a new charter for follow on work. • 2.0 version pursues integration with other W3C recommendations (fragments etc.)

  7. Use Cases & Requirements (I) • W3C Working Draft 19 January 2009 • 9 use cases, 13 requirements • r01: Providing methods for getting structured or unstructured metadata out of media objects in different formats • r02: Providing methods for setting metadata in media objects in different formats • r03: Providing in the API a means for supporting structured annotations • r04: Providing a means to access custom metadata • r05: Providing the ontology as a simple set of properties

  8. Use Cases & Requirements (II) • Requirements (continued): • r06: Specifying an internal or external format for the ontology • r07: Introducing several abstraction levels in the ontology • r08: Being able to apply the ontology / API for collections of metadata • r09: Taking different roles in metadata processing into account • r10: Being able to describe fragments of media objects • r11: Providing the ontology in slices of conformance • r12: Provide support for controlled vocabularies for the values of different properties • r13: Allow for different return types for the same property

  9. MAGW & MXM Analysis • There is a joint set of desired features between: • MAGW API • MXM Video Metadata API (8.8 in N10290 MXM Architecture and Technologies) • Video metadata creation APIs  difficult to be achieved • Video metadata editing APIs  difficult to be achieved • Video metadata parsing APIs • Video metadata presentation APIs • However, “setting” methods much more complex to be implemented. • Timeline may be a problem

  10. Milestones • First Public Working Draft, Last Call WD, Candidate Recommendation, Proposed Recommendation, Recommendation. • August 2008: First teleconference

  11. More information • Chairs of W3C Media Annotation Working Group • Soohong Daniel Park (soohong.park@samsung.com) • Joakim Soderberg (joakim.soderberg@ericsson.com) • For more info, there is a public mailing list: • public-media-fragment@w3.org. • (about 500 messages exchanged from Aug.08) • Webpage: • http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Annotations/
