Interactive Adaptive Movie Annotation

Effectively labeling the visual content of movies is essential for annotation. We present the interactive and adaptive i-Notation system, which describes actors' names, automatically processes multimodal information sources, and deals with available sources' varying quality. It provides the basis for intelligent interaction and demonstrates significant improvements in annotation efficiency.
