This chapter describes several approaches for information fusion that have been used in
ImageCLEF over the past seven years. In this context, the fusion of information is mainly …

This article compares eight different diversity methods: 3 based on visual information, 1
based on date information, 3 adapted to each topic based on location and visual …

This paper describes a study on diversity in image search results. One of the first test
collections explicitly built to study diversity–the ImageCLEFPhoto 2008 collection–was used …

In this working note, we focus our efforts on the study of how to automatically extract and
exploit visual concepts. First, in the Visual Concept Detection Task (VCDT), we look at the …

Currently large scale multimodal image databases have become widely available, for
example via photo sharing sites where images come along with textual descriptions and …

In this working note, we present the submission of the AVEIR consortium, composed of 4
French laboratories, to ImageCLEFphoto 2008. The submitted runs correspond to different …

In the photo retrieval task of ImageCLEF 2008, we examined the influence of image
representations, clustering methods, and query types in enhancing result diversity. Two …

We are currently experiencing an exceptional growth of visual data, for example, millions of
photos are shared daily on social-networks. Image understanding methods aim to facilitate …

Image retrieval methods try to increase the performance of retrieval by adjusting weights of
relevant and non-relevant images. Adjusting weights of queries instead of images is studied …
