THE ROLE OF METADATA IN WEB VIDEO MINING: ISSUES AND PERSPECTIVES

Abstract

Due to the complexity in rapid growth of audiovisual information over the web, it is becoming difficult to extract useful information from the web audiovisual data such as YouTube, Face Book, and Yahoo Screen etc. Web video mining is the process of extracting useful information from the web videos by applying data mining techniques. There are two approaches for web video mining- using traditional image processing/signal processing approach and metadata based approach. A number of techniques and algorithms are developed in image/signal processing approach to mine the video contents. But nowadays, mining of web videos without using image processing techniques is a challenging task. This paper represents a new approach for mining web videos using metadata as leading contribution for knowledge discovery.

Key takeaways

  • Due to the explosion of video clips over the web, it is important to provide an effective way to retrieve/extract useful information from the web videos (web video mining).
  • The web video mining task using metadata based approach includes-classification of web videos, clustering of web videos, outlier detection among large number of web videos etc.
  • The different types of metadata extracted from each web video and are stored in metadata repository with respect to appropriate Video ID of web videos.
  • The next component in the proposed framework is web video mining, where web videos are mined using the metadata by applying any data mining techniques such as, classification, clustering, association rule mining, predictive analysis, outlier detection etc.
  • Even though there exists many traditional image/signal processing technique to discover knowledge from videos, metadata based web video mining is complex and challenging task due to insufficient amount of available metadata of web videos.
