Example implementations are directed to methods and systems for individualized multimedia navigation and control including receiving metadata for a piece of digital content, where the metadata comprises a primary image and text that is used to describes the digital content; analyzing the primary image to detect one or more objects; selecting one or more secondary images corresponding to each detected object; and generating a data structure for the digital content comprising the one or more secondary images, where the digital content is described by a preferred secondary image.

A method and a system for retrieving video temporal segments are provided. In the method, a video is analyzed to obtain frame feature information of the video; the frame feature information is input into an encoder to output first data relating to temporal information of the video; the first data and a retrieval description for retrieving video temporal segments of the video are input into a decoder to output second data; attention computation training is conducted according to the first data and the second data; video temporal segments of the video corresponding to the retrieval description are determined according to the attention computation training.

A query acquisition unit (610) acquires a query video. A query frame selection unit (620) selects a plurality of query frames from among a plurality of first frame images included in the query video. A video selection unit (630) selects a video by using the plurality of query frames. At this time, the video selection unit (630) uses references (1) and (2) below as a condition for selecting the video.

Reference (1) A condition that a “similar frame image whose degree of similarity to a query frame satisfies a first reference is present” is satisfied for at least two query frames.

Reference (2) When query frames associated with each of at least two similar frame images are arranged in the same order as that of the at least two similar frame images, the arrangement order coincides with an arrangement order of at least two query frames in a query video.

Systems and methods for process design and analysis of processes that result in products or analytical information are provided. A hypergraph data store is maintained and comprises versions of each process. A version comprises a hypergraph with nodes, for stages of the process, and edges. Stages have parameterized resource inputs associated with stage input properties, and input specification limits. Stages have resource outputs with output properties and output specification limits. Edges link the outputs of nodes to the inputs of other nodes. A run data store is maintained with a plurality of process runs, each run identifying a process version, values for the inputs of nodes in the corresponding hypergraph, their input properties, resource outputs of the nodes, and obtained values of output properties of the resource outputs.

A server and a control method thereof are provided. The server includes a communicator configured to communicate with an external apparatus; and a processor configured to: receive an image from the external apparatus via the communicator, process the received image by applying a plurality of image analysis models of which an analysis type for the image is different from each other, to the received image, and generate analysis result information about the image respectively corresponding to a plurality of analysis types according to the processing of the received image. With this, more various types of image analysis information may be provided with respect to one image. At least a portion of the analysis of the image, the processing and the generation may be carried out using at least one of a machine learning, a nerve network or a deep learning algorithm as a rule based or artificial intelligence algorithm.

A method, system and computer program product for event summarization facilitated by emotions/reactions of people near an event location is disclosed. The method includes generating a query based at least in part on reaction information and at least in part on primary video metadata. Based on the query, at least one possible event summarization match for the one or more events is retrieved from a database.

This disclosure relates to digital video analysis. In one aspect, a method includes providing a user interface that enables a user of the computing system to select one or more seed video groups and one or more keywords, wherein each seed video group comprises one or more videos. The user interface is updated to provide candidate video groups selected based on the one or more seed video groups and the one or more keywords and, for each candidate video group, a first user interface control that enables the user to refine the set of candidate video groups to include video groups classified as being similar to the candidate video group. Data indicating user interaction with a given first user interface control for a first candidate video group is received. The user interface is updated to provide an updated set of candidate video groups.

An electronic apparatus and a controlling method thereof are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a display, a memory configured to store at least one instruction, and a processor configured to control the electronic apparatus by executing at least one instruction stored in the memory, and the processor is configured to receive a user input for entering a first mode, perform a search based on a search word corresponding to a user history in a first application related to the first mode in response to the user input, and display a first image provided by the first application on a first area of the display based on a result of the search, and control the display to display a second image obtained through a camera connected to the electronic apparatus on a second area of the display.

A method and system for profiling a reference image and an object-of-interest therewithin is disclosed. The method includes storing semantic metadata that provides semantic information about environments for respective areas covered by respective Fields Of View (FOVs) of video cameras. The method also includes comparing the semantic metadata to additional metadata corresponding to at least one of an object accessory and a non-permanent object facet to identify a subset of the video cameras, less than an entire video camera universe, that meet a similarity score condition.
