Robin Bargar and Insook Choi, from City University of New York, will give a seminar on Wednesday 10th of March at 18:00h in room 52.S31 on "Interactive Authoring with Semantic Reasoning for Heterogeneous Media Production".

Abstract: Computational models and intelligent signal processing are becoming mainstream methodologies in the media production chain. Media Authoring is a versatile practice that utilizes computational representations between interpreted languages and scripting. Robust models of computational architectures are becoming more feasible in media production as consumer platforms converge on standard processing capabilities that permit extensible applications in high-level programming languages with open source libraries. In this context we recently developed a working method and prototype system for authoring interactive media presentations supported by an ontological inference engine. The system supports real-time query across heterogeneous media resources, parallel media signal processing, and multiple display formats. Authoring is implemented as path-planning in ontological space; path members are concept nodes that generate queries and return media resources coupled to real-time displays. Ontology supports heterogeneous cross-referential capacity for media of multiple types. A dual-root-node data design links ontological reasoning with media metadata, which provides a method for defining hybrid semantic-quantitative relationships. Ontological organization enables users to author and explore media resources by concept-based navigation displaying relationships across media of diverse types, rather than isolating resource types.

Robin Bargar is Professor of Entertainment Technology and Insook Choi is the Director of the Emerging Media Technologies Program, both at the School of Technology and Design of City University of New York.
