Greetings all, i have just been pointed at http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/marvel?open&S_TACT=105AGX59&S_CMP=GR&ca=dgr-eclpsw03awmarvel which i didnt know and has an interesting online demo From there one fins LSCOM, an "expanded multimedia concept lexicon on the order of 1000. Concepts related to events, objects, locations, people, and programs have been selected following a multi-step process involving input solicitation, expert critiquing, comparison with related ontologies, and performance evaluation." http://www.ee.columbia.edu/dvmm/lscom/ Peeking inside the "ontology" one finds approximately 850 concepts that have been extrapolated and a list of annotations with such terms for specific videos segments (provided as a training set for classifiers, i thinki) Terms might be as generic as "male" "statue" "resturant" but they get suspiciously specific at times , with terms such as "Saddam Hussein" "Steel Mill worker" "Tennis" "Abused Woman" "Abused Child" (but no "Abused_man" for example) Giovanni
