InternI worked on improving the newsfeed project. The project records the BBC 8 o'clock news and it segments the stories and displays the user relevant stories matching to his query along with a few key frames and the extracted text from the news videos. I impoved the shot boundary detection algorithm previously used and improved the efficiency of the whole system.

Multimedia and Information Systems is...
We focus on content-based information retrieval over a wide range of data spanning form unstructured text and unlabelled images over spoken documents and music to videos. This encompasses the modelling of human perception of relevance and similarity, the learning from user actions and the up-to-date presentation of information. Currently we are building a research version of an integrated multimedia information retrieval system MIR to be used as a research prototype. We aim for a system that understands the user's information need and successfully links it to the appropriate information sources, be it a report or a TV news clip. This work is guided by the vision that an automated knowledge extraction system ultimately empowers people making efficient use of information sources without the burden of filing data into specialised databases.
