Mobile Applications Developer

I have worked for The Open University for the past 25 years, the last 16 as a Systems Developer creating database applications for the University's distribution site. Recently I have moved to KMi to become the resident Mobile Applications Developer tasked with developing applications to run on the iPhone / iPod Touch with the goal to port these applications to at least one other mobile device, Android or Microsoft mobile.

Multimedia and Information Systems
Our research is centred around the theme of Multimedia Information Retrieval, ie, Video Search Engines, Image Databases, Spoken Document Retrieval, Music Retrieval, Query Languages and Query Mediation.

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.
