Semantic annotation of soccer videos by visual instance clustering and spatial/temporal reasoning in ontologies
Our paper on “Semantic annotation of soccer videos by visual instance clustering and spatial/temporal reasoning in ontologies” was accepted for publication by Springer International Journal on Multimedia Tools and Applications (MTAP).
In this paper we present a framework for semantic annotation of soccer videos that exploits an ontology model referred to as Dynamic Pictorially Enriched Ontology, where the ontology, defined using OWL, includes both schema and data. Visual instances are used as matching references for the visual descriptors of the entities to be annotated. The paper is available online now and it is also available on SpringerLink in the “Online First” section (DOI).
