Abstract
WITH THE ADVENT OF RELAtively cheap, large online storage capacities and advances in digital compression, comprehensive sources of text, image, video, and audio (TIVA) can be stored and made available for research and applications. The processing of a single medium has seen significant progress, especially for pure text sources. Also, images are frequently processed and made available through a queryby-example procedure (that is, find another image that has similar colors, textures, and shapes as this one). However, the processing of a combination of multiple types of data has not been explored as thoroughly. Most TIVA sources were not produced with computer processing in mind. In contrast with text processing, few effective methods exist for understanding or even searching the content of combined TIVA sources. Intelligent, content-understanding systems can greatly improve the usefulness of the huge quantities of existing material from these sources. Collecting and intelligently integrating several of these media sources open up opportunities for novel applications of existing AI techniques and for further development of intelligent technologies. Unfortunately, there is no clear categorization or organization of the various research efforts concerning mixed-media databases.
