Summary: This tightly-edited collection of papers from leading researchers worldwide provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art in the field of multimedia data mining and knowledge discovery, and discusses the variety of hot topics in multimedia data mining research. Consisting of an introductory section and four topical parts, the book describes the objectives and current tendencies in multimedia data mining research and their applications. Each part contains an overview of its chapters and leads the reader with a structured approach through the diverse subjects in the field. Written with graduates in mind, this much needed comprehensive reflection of the current state of multimedia data mining and knowledge discovery will also be a valuable resource for researchers in the field. It features a comprehensive introduction to multimedia data mining and its relevance today and presents a global perspective of the field and its various components. This book provides broad, yet thorough and detailed coverage of the subject and contains numerous chapters reference websites with supplementary materials and demonstrations. It explores multimedia data exploration, multimedia data modeling and evaluation, and visualization, and offers an entire part devoted to applications and case studies. Written with graduate students in mind, this much needed comprehensive survey of the current state of multimedia data mining and knowledge discovery will also serve as a valuable resource for researchers with interests in multimedia data mining, summarization, indexing, and retrieval.
Item Description: Includes bibliographical references and index.
