Event Description
Recent advances in computer vision techniques have made large-scale visual search applications a reality, but have also highlighted industry's need for a standardized solution ensuring interoperability of devices and applications. MPEG, well known for its multimedia coding and representation standards, responded to this need by developing a new standard in this space, Compact Descriptors for Visual Search (MPEG-7 CDVS). The CDVS standard specifies high-performance, low-complexity, compact descriptors from still images, enabling deployment in low-power handheld devices, transmission over congested networks, and the interoperable design of large-scale visual search applications.
The purpose of this event is to present CDVS and demonstrate its deployment in a range of applications, from mobile visual search to video content management in broadcasting. The event is targeted to a wide audience and will be of particular interest to developers of visual search applications, multimedia device and sensor manufacturers, multimedia content creators and broadcasters.
