  3. Introduction • Digital Video And Video Databases • Basic Research Problems • Research Motivation • Research Goal

  4. Unique Characteristics Of Video Data • Semantics: rich and ambiguous • Relationship: ill-defined • Structure: unclear • Dimension: spatial and temporal • Volume: huge

  5. Video Data Content • Visual Content • Audio Content • Text Content • Semantics Content

  6. Research Problems • Video Data Modeling • Video Data Indexing • Video Data Query • Video Browsing

  7. Video Data Model Requirements • Content-based Data Access • Video Data Abstraction • Variable Data Access Granularity • Dynamic And Incremental Video Annotation

  8. Video Data Model Requirements (Con.) • Video Data Independence • Spatial And Temporal Characteristics • Video And Meta-data Sharing And Reuse

  9. Related Work • Video Data Modeling, Indexing, And Querying • Video Objects • Video Browsing

  10. Video Data Modeling, Indexing, and Querying • Traditional Database Approach • Visual Content Or Segmentation-based Approach • Stratification Or Annotation Layering Approach

  11. Traditional Database Approach • Categorize And Predefine Video Data Attributes/Values • Use Traditional Databases And SQL • Inflexible And Limited • Examples: VISION, Video Database Browser

  12. Segmentation-based Models • Parse And Segment Video Streams • Index On Visual Features Of RFrames • Extract High Level Logical Structure And Semantics By Classifying Against Domain Models

  13. Segmentation-based Models (con.) • Can Be Fully Automated • Lack Of Flexibility • Limited Semantics • Video Streams Need To Be Well-structured • Examples: JACOB, QBIC, Informedia

  14. Stratification • Segment Video Semantics • Concept Of Logical Video Data • Allows For Semantic Content-based Video Access • Annotation Can Be Tedious And Biased • Examples: VideoStar, Algebraic Video

  15. Stratification(con.) Existing Models • Has Limited Temporal Queries • Has Limited Video Browsing Mechanism • Lack Multi-user Views And Data Sharing • Lack Modeling Of Video Objects • Lack Spatial And Spatial-Temporal Query Capabilities

  16. Different Forms Of Video Annotation • Multi-layer Icons - MediaStream • Keywords • Free Text Documents • Other Types Of Annotation?

  17. Sources Of Video Annotations • Closed Caption • Text In Video Frames: highlight detection and OCR • Voice Recognition • Manual Annotation

  18. Annotation Support In A Video Data Model • Annotation of Arbitrary Sequence • Incremental Creation, Deletion, And Modification • Multi-user Annotation Sharing • Arbitrary Overlap Of Annotations

  19. Video Objects • Index On Spatial And Temporal Information • MBR as the Spatial Representation • Narrow Focus And Lack Of Data Abstraction • Limited Video Queries • Example: AVIS, CVOT

  20. Video Browsing • Visual Content-based Browsing • Film Strips • Salient Images • Scene Clustering Graph • Need Semantic Content-based Browsing • Need Inter-Video Navigation

  21. Research Motivations • Visual Content-based Video Access IS Important BUT Lack Semantics • Users Often Prefer Semantic Content-based Video Data Access • Lots Applications: Digital Video Library And Distance Learning etc. • Web Is An Emerging Way Of Information Sharing

  22. Research Goal • Goal: To Provide Effective And Flexible Semantic Content-based Video Data Access In A Distributed and Multi-user Sharing Environment • Both Spatial And Temporal Video Queries • Heterogeneous Applications And User Views • Semantic Content-based Browsing

  23. JACOB Project Ardizzone and Cascia et al. 1997 • Visual Content-based Access To Images And Videos • RFrames Are Extracted And Served As Descriptors Of Video Segments • Index On Visual Features (Color, Motion, And Texture etc.)

  24. Informedia Project M. A. Smith, T. Kanade, M. G. Christel, D. B. Winkler et al. CMU • Video Abstraction: Title-Poster Frame-Film strip-Skim video • Speech Recognition->Transcript->Natural Language Processing->Keywords->Align to Frames • Face And Keyword Search

  25. VISION Digital Library K. M. Pua, S. Gauch et al. University of Kansas, 1993 - 1994 • Practical And Cost-effective Implementation But Very Limited • Video Storage System + IR system (Illustra - An ORDBMS) • Text Is As One Table Entry Of Video Data • Support Boolean Operators

  26. OVID System Oomota and Tanaka, 1991 • Video Object: a set arbitrary frame sequences with attributes and values • Video Object Model Is Schemaless • Data Description Sharing Via “Interval-inclusion Based Inheritance” • User Can Decide which Attributes To Be Shared

  27. OVID System (con.) • Video-Object Composition: merge, interval projection and overlap • VideoSQL • SELECT: continuous/Incontinuous/anyObject • WHERE: attribute is [value] / attribute contains [value] / defineOver [frames] • Browsing: VideoChart - bar chart representation of video objects

  28. Virtual Video Browser Little et al., 1993 • Predefined Schema With Fixed Attributes • Descriptions Can Not be Overlapped or Nested • Target at MOD: not suitable for dynamic creation, modification of video • No Personalized View • No Spatio-temporal Queries

  29. Video Database Browser System Rowe, Boreczky et al. 1994 • Classify Metadata Into: Bibliographic, Structural, And Content Data • Use Relational Database Schema (POSTGRES RDBMS) • Support Video Queries On Predefined Attributes

  30. Video Stratification Smith and Davenport, MIT, 1991 - 1992 • Associate Description To A Sequence Of Video Frames • Simple Keyword Search • Strata May Overlap • Relation Among Strata Is Absent

  31. BRAHMA Dan et al., IBM T. J. Watson, 1996 • Browsing and Retrieval Architecture for Hierarchical Multimedia Annotations • Each Annotation Node is an Attribute / Value Pair • Nodes Can Be Dynamically Created and Shared by Multi-users

  32. Media Streams Davis 1993 • Goal: overcome keyword annotation weaknesses • Iconic Video Content Annotation • Hierarchical: general -> specific • Represent And Match Temporal Relations • Fixed Vocabulary • Doesn’t Address Textual Data, e.g. Closed Caption

  33. Algebraic Video System Weiss et al, MIT, 1995 • Goal: Temporal Video Composition • Basic Approach: Stratification

  34. Algebraic Video Data Model • Video Expression: • multi-window, spatial, temporal and content combination of raw video segments • recursively constructed using video algebraic operators • Video Algebraic Operators: creation, composition, output, and description

  35. Algebraic Video Data Model • Providing Multiple Coexisting Views (Nest Stratification) • Video Query: Boolean combination of attributes • Temporal Constraint Is Expressed As Attribute Values • Video Browsing Within The Expression

  37. VideoSTAR: Generic Video Data Model • Continuous Media Objects (CMObjects) • MediaStream: • Virtual Video Streams (VideoStreams) • Video/Audio Recordings (StoredMediaSegments) • An Arbitrary StreamInterval can be annotated

  38. VideoSTAR: Video Querying and Browsing • Three Kinds of Video Context: • Basic, Secondary, and Primary • Unconditionally context sharing • VideoSTAR Query Algebra • Boolean, Set , and Temporal Operators • Based on Attribute/Value • Users Need to Choose Query Context

  39. VideoSTAR: Video Querying and Browsing Two Browsing Operators • Retrieve All Annotations Over a Video Stream or Interval • Retrieve All Structures Defined Over a Interval

  40. Advanced Video Information System (AVIS) Adah, Candan, Chen, Erol, and Subrahamanian, University of Maryland. MSJ 1996 • Basic Approach: spatial Indexes + RDB • Entities: things that are interesting which may or may not actually appear in the movie, including video objects, activity types, event (roles and teams) • Raw Video Frame Sequences

  41. Advanced Video Information System (AVIS) • Associate Map: entities <--> frame sequences. • Index:frame segment tree + OBJECTARRAY + EVENTARRAY + ACTIVITYARRAY • All Clips Must Be Equal Length With No Overlap • No Spatial and Temporal Queries • No Logical Video Abstractions

  42. Common Video Object Model (CVOT) J. Li and T. Ozsu et al. University of Alberta, 1998 • Focus On Salient Objects And Based On OODBMS • CVO Tree: each leaf is a video interval with salient objects (similar to AVIS) attached • Video Clips Can Be Overlapped To Model Special Editing Effects (Fade In etc.)

  43. Common Video Object Model (CVOT) • Query Language: MOQL • based on OQL proposed by ODMG for ODBMSs • has both temporal and spatial operators • Symbolic Trajectory Representation And Matching • Logical v.s. Physical Salient Objects • Only Address Salient Objects
