This paper presents a capacity estimation of a storage system accumulating all data sensed during the lifetime of an individual human being. The calculation assumes modern data compression and data collection schemes based on wearable or implanted devices under ubiquitous environment. More than 76% of the storage area is found to be used for video data storage of common TV image quality. The remaining storage area is for data from other sensing organs including audio, taste, olfactory and tactual systems in addition to indexing information. Total storage area of around 600 tera bytes is needed to cover 100 years of human life including his fetal period.

동영상 데이터가 급증하면서 뉴스 검색과 같은 검색 서비스를 위한 내용 기반의 색인 방법에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이에 따른 최근의 동영상 색인 기술들은 특히 용량이 큰 동영상에서 자동 또는 반자동으로 색인하기 위한 방법들을 소개하고 있으며, 대부분 저수준 특징(low-level feature)들을 이용하여 특정 구간을 검출하는 방법을 사용하고 있다. 그러나 저수준 특징만을 이용할 경우 고수준 특징(high-level feature)이 나타내는 인지적 측면에서의 동영상 내용을 다룰수 없어, 사용자가 일일이 내용에 따른 구분 작업을 병행해야 하는 단점을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서는 뉴스와 같이 시간적으로 비정규적이지만 내용에 따라 구조를 지니고 있는 동영상에 대해서, 저수준 특징만을 사용하여 고수준 특징을 이용한 것과 같은 성능으로 사용자가 수행해야 하는 작업을 최소화하는 내용 기반 구간 검출 방법에 의한 색인 방법을 제안한다. 특히 저수준 특징을 이용한 프로그램 구간 검출은 빠른 처리 및 효과적인 검출 성능 보이고 있어, 본 논문에서 제안한 비정규 구조 색인 방법이 내용 기반 색인에 매우 효과적임을 보여주고 있다.

In this paper, we design and implement a XML Repository System(XRS) that exploits the advantages of DBMSs and IRSs. Our scheme uses BRS to support full text indexing and content-based queries efficiently, and ORACLE to store XML documents, multimedia data, DTD and structure information. We design databases to manage XML documents including audio, video, images as well as text. We employ the non-composition model when storing XML documents into ORACLE. We represent structured information as ETID(Element Type Id), SORD(Sibling ORDer) and SSORD(Same Sibling ORDer). ETID is a unique value assigned to each element of DTD. SORD and SSORD represent an order information between sibling nodes and an order information among the sibling nodes with the same element respectively. In order to show superiority of our XRS, we perform various experiments in terms of the document loading time, document extracting time and contents retrieval time. It is shown through experiments that our XRS outperforms the existing XML document management systems. We also show that it supports various types of queries through performance experiments.

In this paper, we develop a method for generating thumbnail images at hybrid domain combined the spatial domain and transform domain. The proposed method generates a pixel of a thumbnail image by adding a DC value of residual transform coefficients and an average value of an estimate block. For effectively calculating average values of estimate blocks, we propose a method for reconstructing the boundary pixels of a block. In comparison to the conventional method of decoding the bit stream then scaling down the decoded images, the developed method reduces the complexity by more than 60% while producing identical thumbnail images.

Most of previous work on indexing and searching time series focused on the similarity matching and retrieval of one-attribute time series. However, multimedia databases such as music, video need to handle the similarity search in multi-attribute time series. The limitation of the current similarity models for multi-attribute sequences is that there is no consideration for attributes' sequences. The multi-attribute sequences are composed of several attributes' sequences. Since the users may want to find the similar patterns considering attributes's sequences, it is more appropriate to consider the similarity between two multi-attribute sequences in the viewpoint of attributes' sequences. In this paper, we propose the similarity search method based on attributes's sequences in multi-attribute time series databases. The proposed method can efficiently reduce the search space and guarantees no false dismissals. In addition, we give preliminary experimental results to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper proposes a dynamic-tiling-based bandwidth-efficient (DTBE) virtual reality (VR) streaming scheme. We consider 360-degree VR contents with multiple view points such as the front, back, upper, and bottom sides. At a given time, the focus of a client is always bound to a certain view among multiple view points. By utilizing this perspective, under our proposed scheme, tiles with high encoding rates are selectively assigned to the focused view where multiple view points consist of multiple tiles with different encoding rates. The other tiles with low encoding rates are assigned to the remaining view points. Furthermore, for reducing view adaptation delay, we design a novel rapid view adaptation mechanism that selectively delivers an I-frame during view point updates by using frame indexing. We implement the proposed scheme on a commercial VR test bed where we adopt the MPEG media transport (MMT) standard with high-efficiency video coding (HEVC) tile modes. The measurement-based experiments show that the proposed scheme achieves an average data usage reduction of almost 65.2% as well as average view adaptation delay reduction of almost 57.7%.

Recently, there have been many indexing schemes for multimedia data such as image, video data. But recent database applications, for example data mining and multimedia database, are required to support multi-user environment. In order for indexing schemes to be useful in multi-user environment, a concurrency control algorithm is required to handle it. So we propose a concurrency control algorithm that can be applied to CBF (cell-based filtering method), which uses the signature of the cell for alleviating the dimensional curse problem. In addition, we extend the SHORE storage system of Wisconsin university in order to handle high-dimensional data. This extended SHORE storage system provides conventional storage manager functions, guarantees the integrity of high-dimensional data and is flexible to the large scale of feature vectors for preventing the usage of large main memory. Finally, we implement the web-based image retrieval system by using the extended SHORE storage system. The key feature of this system is platform-independent access to the high-dimensional data as well as functionality of efficient content-based queries. Lastly. We evaluate an average response time of point query, range query and k-nearest query in terms of the number of threads.

People are experiencing severe problems in temporal navigation as time-based contents and platforms become more popular Relatively limited research, however, has been conducted on temporal navigation compared to that on spatial navigation. This research aims to identify efficient temporal navigation aids for time-based contents. It proposes Time Navigator, a new temporal navigation system based on the episodic indexing theory, and evaluates its efficiency through two experiments with a computer-based simulator for digital TV The video contents of digital TV was focused on because it is one of the most representative time-based contents and platforms. Our results indicate that Time Navigator helps people navigate time -based contents more effectively. Its effects increase as the contents include more narratives.

We introduce a novel scheme to characterize and index events in TV golf programs using MPEG-7 descriptors. Our goal is to identify and localize the golf events of interest to facilitate highlight-based video indexing and summarization. In particular, we analyze multiple (low-level) visual features using domain-specific model to create a perceptual relation for semantically meaningful(high-level) event identification. Furthermore, we summarize a TV golf program with TV-Anytime segmentation metadata, a standard form of an XML-based metadata description, in which the golf events are represented by temporally localized segments and segment groups of highlights. Experimental results show that our proposed technique provides reasonable performance for identifying a variety of golf events.

Multimedia needs and searching have become important in everyday life, especially in a younger generation. The characteristics of multimedia needs and searching behaviors are distinctive compared to textual information needs and searching behaviors in a wide variety of ways. By interviewing and observing multimedia needs and searching behaviors of college students from 20 areas in Seoul, this study aims to improve the understanding on users' multimedia needs and how users search multimedia. The findings are presented in terms of searching sources, multimedia needs, relevance criteria and searching barriers. For multimedia, the searching sources are found primarily as Naver and Google and the distinguished features are presented depending on the individual multimedia types. As multimedia needs are categorized into generic, specific and abstract, most of the needs are classified as specific needs rather than generic needs, but there exist differences depending on the types of multimedia. In addition, the aspects of relevance criteria and searching barriers are reflected with the characteristics of individual multimedia types. The findings of this study demonstrate that distinctive indexing and searching environments depending on the types of multimedia might be necessary to improve the quality of multimedia searching.
