SUMMARY:Workshop on Semantic Multimedia Database Technologies (SeMuDaTe2009) - 10th International Workshop of the Multimedia Metadata Community
DESCRIPTION:Ontology-based systems have been developed to structure co
 ntent and support knowledge retrieval and management. Semantic multime
 dia data processing and indexing in ontology- based systems is usually
  done in several steps. One starts by enriching multimedia metadata wi
 th additional semantic information (possibly obtained by methods for b
 ridging the semantic gap). Then\, in order to structure data\, a local
 ized and domain specific ontology becomes necessary since the data has
  to be interpreted domain-specifically. The annotations are stored in 
 an ontology management system where they are kept for further processi
 ng. In this scope\, Semantic Database Technologies are now applied to 
 ensure reliable and secure access\, efficient search\, and effective s
 torage and distribution for both multimedia metadata and data. Their s
 ervices can be used to adapt multimedia to a given context based on mu
 ltimedia metadata or even ontology information. Services automate cumb
 ersome multimedia processing steps and enable ubiquitous intelligent a
 daptation. Both\, database and automation support facilitate the ubiqu
 itous use of multimedia in advanced applications.\n\nTopics of interes
 t are how multimedia metadata standards and multimedia ontologies are 
 mapped or integrated into databases\, how multimedia query languages a
 re built\, and how semantic queries are optimized and processed. Moreo
 ver\, we are interested how multimedia data services are conceived to 
 ensure interoperability\, how to improve security and reliability of a
 ccess and storage of multimedia data and metadata. Adaptation of multi
 media\, semantic enrichment of multimedia and bridging of media breaks
  are typical examples of advanced multimedia database services.
