VERGE in VBS 2019

This paper presents VERGE, an interactive video retrieval engine that enables browsing and searching into video content. The system implements various retrieval modalities, such as visual or textual search, concept detection and clustering, as well as a multimodal fusion and a reranking capability. All results are displayed in a graphical user interface in an efficient and friendly manner.
