texts, images, videos and audio files in recent years raised theattractiveness
of multimedia retrieval. With our work on the influenceof dependencies
between modalities and features we investigate whythese approaches
still do not perform convincingly better than plaintext search approaches
when applied to large, noisy collections likeweb content, even though
these approaches have more information attheir hands. This article
suggests that, due to the size and noise,the modality’s dependencies
necessary for efficient information fusionbecomes small and hard
to exploit. Preliminary experiments with twomulti modal collections
underpin this statement.*},

systems, such as SQL for relational databases. The MultimediaRetrieval
Mark-up Language (MRML) solves this problem by standardizingaccess
to CBIR systems (CBIRSs). Other difficult problems are alsoshortly
addressed, such as obtaining relevance judgments and choosinga database
for performance comparison. In this article we presenta fully automated
benchmark for CBIRSs based on MRML, which can beadapted to any image
database and almost any kind of relevance judgment.The test evaluates
theperformance of positive and negative relevancefeedback, which
can be generated automatically from the relevancejudgments. To illustrate
our purpose, a freely available, non-copyrightimage collection is

abstract = {Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has now reached a mature stage.Search
techniques are well-categorized and several research prototypesor
commercial products are available. However, CBIR true performanceis
still difficult to quantify. Setting up a CBIR benchmark is aheavy
task and can only be done via the collaboration of all partiesinvolved
in the research and development of CBIR prototypes and relatedcommercial
products. The Benchathlon effort proposes to create sucha context
in which CBIR will be evaluated thoroughly and objectively.In this
paper, we present the Benchathlon and its objectives in moredetails.
The goal of CBIR benchmarking has been divided into variousparallel
and inter-related sub-tasks. One essential such task isthe definition
of ground truth data. Since no such data exists, theimage collection
is to be constructed from scratch. Copyright issuesshould be resolved
so as to be able to freely distribute, extendand modify this collection.
Further, different sub-collections shouldbe available for different
specialized applications. It is also acknowledgedhere that no unique
ground truth exists. Techniques to account foruser subjectivity should
therefore be developed. Considering theeffort involved, tools for
easing the task of data annotation needalso to be designed. Related
to this is the definition of objectivequantitative performance measures.
These measures should be boththorough and orthogonal. In other words,
they should allow for acomplete evaluation and highlight weaknesses
and strengths of theCBIR system under evaluation. The goal being
both to compare systemsand to help system developers to profile their
techniques. To usethis data in practical evaluation, there is also
the need for definingstandard test queries and result sets. Domain-specific
constraintswill strongly influence the design of such test cases.
Another aspectis the feasibility of CBIR benchmarking. This imposes
the definitionof a flexible software architecture enabling automated
benchmarkingwhile leading to little (optimally no) programming overhead.
Again,legal issues about the openness of the systems under evaluation
shouldbe accounted for. In our paper, we also shortly present the
solutionsproposed by the Viper team at University of Geneva. These
realizationsare gathered under the umbrella of our GIFT project where
the centralfeature is the Multimedia Retrieval Markup Language (MRML),
an XML-basedcommunication protocol that we think is a necessary tool
for enablingCBIR benchmarking. We describe the architecture of our
MRML-basedbenchmark and sketch results for the Viper search engine.},

of four months. Within this period about 3500 accesses tothe system
were made w ith almost 800 multiple image queries. Allthe actions
of the users were logged in a file. The analysis onlyincludes multiple
image queries of the system with positive and/ornegative input images,

together positively in the same que ry stepget a higher weighting,
whereas features present in one image markedpositively and an other
image marked negatively in the same stepget a lower weighting. The
\emph{Viper} system offers a very largenumber of simple features.
This allows the creation of flexible featureweightings with high
values for importan t and low values for lessimportant features.
These weightings for features can of course differbetween collections

permits the connection of compliant user interfaces with avariety
of multimedia retrieval engines via an open communicationprotocol,
MRML (Multi Media Retrieval Markup Language). It allowsthe choice
of image collection, feature set and query algorithm duringrun--time,
permitting multiple users to query a system adapted totheir needs,
using the query paradigm adapted to their problem suchas query by
example (QBE), browsing queries, or query by annotation.User interaction
is implemented over several levels and in diverseways. Relevance
feedback is implemented using positive and negativeexample images
that can be used for a best--match QBE query. In contrast,browsing
methods try to approach the searched image by giving overviewsof
the entire collection and by successive refinement. In additionto
these query methods, Long term off line learning is implemented.It
allows feature preferences per user, user domain or over all usersto
be learned automatically. We present the Viper multimedia retrievalsystem
as the core of the framework and an example of an MRML-compliantsearch
engine. Viper uses techniques adapted from traditional informationretrieval
(IR) to retrieve multimedia documents, thus benefitingfrom the many
years of IR research. As a result, textual and visualfeatures are
treated in the same way, facilitating true multimediaretrieval. The
MRML protocol also allows other applications to makeuse of the search
engnes. This can for example be used for the designof a benchmark
test suite, querying several search engines in thesame way and comparing
the results. This is motivated by the factthat the content--based
image retrieval community really lacks sucha benchmark as it already
exists in text retrieval.},

common communication protocols (e.g. ODBC/JDBC using SQL), ContentBased
Image Retrieval Systems (CBIRS) and other multimedia retrievalsystems
are lacking both a common query language and a common communicationprotocol.
Besides its obvious short term convenience, interoperabilityof systems
is crucial for the exchange and analysis of user data.In this paper,
we present and describe an extensible XML-based querymarkup language,
called MRML (Multimedia Retrieval Markup Language).MRML is primarily
designed so as to ensure interoperability betweendifferent content

to preserve their freedom in extending their systemas needed. MRML
encapsulates multimedia queries in a way that enablesmultimedia (MM)
query languages, MM content descriptions, MM queryengines, and MM
user interfaces to grow independently from each other,reaching a
maximum of interoperability while ensuring a maximum offreedom for
the developer. For benefiting from this, only a few simpledesign
principles have to be respected when extending MRML for one'sprivate
needs. The design of extensions within the MRML frameworkwill be

abstract = {The recent literature has shown that the principal difficulty in multimediaretrieval
is the bridging of the "semantic gap" between the user'swishes and
his ability to fomulate queries. This insight has spawnedtwo main
directions of research: Query By Example (QBE) with relevancefeedback
(i.e. learning to improve the result of a previsously formulatedquery)
and the research in query formulation techniques, like browsingor
query by sketch. Browsing techniques try to help the user in findinghis
target image, or an image which is sufficiently close to thedesired
result that it can be used in a subsequent QBE query. Fromthe feature
space viewpoint, each browsing system tries to permitthe user to
move consciously in feature space and eventually reachthe target
image. How to provide this functionality to the user ispresently
an open question. In fact even obtaining objective performanceevaluation
and comparison of these browsing paradigms is difficult.We distinguish
here between deterministic browsers, which try tooptimise the possibility
for the user to learn how the system behaves,and stochastic browsers
based on more sophisticated Monte-Carlo algorithmsthus sacrificing
reproducibility to a better performance. Presently,these two browsing
paradigms are practically incomparable, exceptby large scale user
studies. This makes it infeasible for researchgroups to evaluate
incremental improvement of browsing schemes. Moreover,automated benchmarks
in the current literature simulate a user bya model derived directly
from the distance measures used within thetested systems. Such a
circular reference cannot provide a seriousalternative to real user
tests. In this paper, we present an automaticbenchmark which uses
user-annotated collections for simulating thesemantic gap, thus providing
a means for automatic evaluation andcomparison of the different browsing
paradigms. We use a very preciseannotation of few words together
with a thesaurus to provide sufficientlysmooth behaviour of the annotation-based
user model. We discuss thedesign and evaluation of this annotation
as well as the implementationof the benchmark in an MRML-compliant
script with pluggable moduleswhich allow testing of new interaction
schemes (see http://www.mrml.net).},

abstract = {It has been widely recognised that the difference between the levelof
abstraction of the formulation of a query (by example) and thatof
the desired result (usually an image with certain semantics) callsfor
the use of learning methods that try to bridge this gap. Cox\emph{et
al.}~have proposed a Bayesian method to learn the user'spreferences
during each query. Cox \emph{et al.}\'s system, \texttt{PicHunter},is
designed for optimal performance when the user is searching fora
fixed target image. The performance of the system was evaluatedusing
target testing, which ranks systems according to the numberof interaction
steps required to find the target, leading to simple,easily reproducible
experiments. There are some aspects of imageretrieval, however, which
are not captured by this measure. In particular,the possibility of
query drift (i.e.~a moving target) is completelyignored. The algorithm
proposed by Cox \emph{et al.}~does not copewell with a change of
target at a late query stage, because it isassumed that user feedback
is noisy, but consistent. In the caseof a moving target, however,
the feedback is noisy \emph{and} inconsistentwith earlier feedback.
In this paper we propose an enhanced Bayesianscheme which selectively
forgets inconsistent user feedback, thusenabling both the program
and the user to ``change their minds''.The effectiveness of this
scheme is demonstrated in moving targettests on a database of heterogeneous
real-world images.},

This paper compares several methods for improving theevaluation time
in a content-based image retrieval system (CBIRS)which uses inverted
file technology. The use of the inverted filetechnology facilitates
search pruning in a variety of ways, as isshown in this paper. For
large databases ($> 2000$ images) and ahigh number of possible features
($> 80000$), efficient and fastaccess is necessary to allow interactive
querying and browsing. Parallelaccess to the inverted file can reduce
the response time. This parallelaccess is very easy to implement
with little communication overhead,and thus scales well. Other search
pruning methods, similar to methodsused in information retrieval,
can also reduce the response timesignificantly without reducing the
performance of the system. Theperformance of the system is evaluated
using precision vs. recallgraphs, which are an established evaluation
method in informationretrieval. A user survey was carried out in
order to obtain relevancejudgments for the queries reported in this
work.},

with human partitionings than any of the feature-space-basedtechniques

improve the organization of an image database for content-basedretrieval.
We first derive a statistic, $\kappa_B$ for measuringthe agreement
between two partitionings of an image set into unlabeledsubsets.
This measure can be used both to measure the degree of agreementbetween
pairs of human subjects, and also between human and machinepartitionings
of an image set. It also allows a direct comparisonof database organizations,
as opposed to the indirect measure availablevia precision and recall
measurements. This provides a rigorous meansof selecting between
competing image database organization systems,and assessing how close
the performance of such systems is to thatwhich might be expected
from a database organization done by hand.We then use the results
of experiments in which human subjects areasked to partition a set
of images into unlabeled subsets to definea similarity measure for
pairs of images based on the frequency withwhich they were judged
to be similar. We show that, when this measureis used to partition
an image set using a clustering technique, theresultant clustering
agrees better with those produced by human subjectsthan any of the
feature space-based techniques investigated. Finally,we investigate
the use of machine learning techniques to discovera mapping from
a numerical feature space to this perceptual similarityspace. Such
a mapping would allow the ground truth knowledge abstractedfrom the
human judgments to be generalized to unseen images. We showthat a
learning technique based on an extension of a Kohonen networkallows
a similarity space to be learnt which results in partitioningsin
excellent agreement with those produced by human subjects.},
