4M, tools, Algorithm Ontology UC

Dear all

in the following our comments to the emails received
(Raphael, Zeljko
and Jeff).


- 4M Infrastructure (23rd march Raphael's email)
4M is an infrastrucure developed by ISTI-CNR in the frame of
the EU
MUSCLE Network of Excellence.
Some information about 4M can be found at

http://image.ntua.gr/swamm2006/resources/paper01.pdf
At present, 4M extracts mpeg-7 features from audio, images
and videos.
The software has been implemented in Java (we did not use XM
(C
language) because it has limits on media management).
Multimedia
extractor is based on Vizir (that we have extended) and
mpeg7audioencoder.
We also extended eXist (XML native database) in order to
better handle
users' groups (our improvements have been sent to the
developers: the next
version of eXist will contain our modifications).
4M also performs some multimedia similarity based on the
extracted features.
A prototype of an image annotation module is now available.
Work to improve 4M is still in progress.
At present, only MUSCLE-NoE partners are allowed to access
and use 4M.

In attachment the DOAP file of 4M.

- Algorithm Usecase (9th april Jeff's review email )
we have added an "interoperability aspects"
separate section on the wiki.


Again, thank you all !

Hi Massimo,

Thanks for addition, and DOAP file. I will update the tools
page based on 
it. Is it possible that you host the DOAP file, so that we
just link it. In 
this way you can also change the DOAP file, without chaning
the tools page.

Zeljko
