Group (http://mkg.iti.gr). Our research activities include: Semantic  
Multimedia Analysis, Multimedia Indexing and Retrieval, Multimedia  
and the Semantic Web, Knowledge Structures, Languages and Tools for  
Multimedia, Reasoning and Personalization for Multimedia  
Applications. More specifically, activities relevant to the XG are:  
Ontology structures in OWL for knowledge-assisted multimedia analysis  
and reasoning, Rules in SWRL including multimedia features for  
analysis and reasoning, MPEG-7 Visual part representation in RDF,  
Graphical tool for ontology-based annotation of images (M-Ontomat).  
We are also involved in the Harmonization of Multimedia Ontologies

My colleague Vassilis Papastathis is going to participate in the  
meeting presenting the group, recent research activities and the  
progress of the Harmonization of Multimedia Ontologies activity.

Best,
Yiannis.
