| Abstract |
|
The main objective of this paper is to present a flexible
annotation management framework for a multimedia
database system, applied to meeting recordings. Presented
research and development activities are carried out within
the scope of the IM2 project in which annotations play an
important role in describing raw data from various points
of view and in enhancing the query process. We focus on
a database system capable of managing annotations (e.g.
text transcriptions, dialog acts, speaker space position, etc.)
and keeping links with raw data (audio, video, digital documents).
This database provides a schema evolution mechanism
and a meta-description layer ensuring flexible and incremental
annotation definitions. To enhance this database
system, some research works are currently in progress: a
predictive methodology for schema evolution and a query
technique that deals with fuzzy concepts and ontological
commitments. We describe our on-going prototype development,
in which we focus on data storage and interactive
data access.
