We propose a new Movie Map system, with an interface for exploring cities. The system consists of four stages; acquisition, analysis, management, and interaction. In the acquisition stage, omnidirectional videos are taken along streets in target areas. Frames of the video are localized on the map, intersections are detected, and videos are segmented. Turning views at intersections are subsequently generated. By connecting the video segments following the specified movement in an area, we can view the streets better. The interface allows for easy exploration of a target area, and it can show virtual billboards of stores in the view. We conducted user studies to compare our system to the GSV in a scenario where users could freely move and explore to find a landmark. The experiment showed that our system had a better user experience than GSV.

Manga, or comics, which are a type of multimodal artwork, have been left behind in the recent trend of deep learning applications because of the lack of a proper dataset. Hence, we built Manga109, a dataset consisting of a variety of 109 Japanese com ic books (94 authors and 21,142 pages) and made it publicly available by obtaining author permissions for academic use. We carefully annotated the frames, speech texts, character faces, and character bodies; the total number of annotations exceeds 500k. This dataset provides numerous manga images and annotations, which will be beneficial for use in machine learning algorithms and their evaluation. In addition to academic use, we obtained further permission for a subset of the dataset for industrial use. In this article, we describe the details of the dataset and present a few examples of multimedia processing applications (detection, retrieval, and generation) that apply existing deep learning methods and are made possible by the dataset.
Audio-visual (AV) lip biometrics is a promising authentication technique that leverages the benefits of both the audio and visual modalities in speech communication. Previous works have demonstrated the usefulness of AV lip biometrics. However, the l ack of a sizeable AV database hinders the exploration of deep-learning-based audio-visual lip biometrics. To address this problem, we compile a moderate-size database using existing public databases. Meanwhile, we establish the DeepLip AV lip biometrics system realized with a convolutional neural network (CNN) based video module, a time-delay neural network (TDNN) based audio module, and a multimodal fusion module. Our experiments show that DeepLip outperforms traditional speaker recognition models in context modeling and achieves over 50% relative improvements compared with our best single modality baseline, with an equal error rate of 0.75% and 1.11% on the test datasets, respectively.
Acoustic and visual sensing can support the contactless estimation of the weight of a container and the amount of its content when the container is manipulated by a person. However, transparencies (both of the container and of the content) and the va riability of materials, shapes and sizes make this problem challenging. In this paper, we present an open benchmarking framework and an in-depth comparative analysis of recent methods that estimate the capacity of a container, as well as the type, mass, and amount of its content. These methods use learned and handcrafted features, such as mel-frequency cepstrum coefficients, zero-crossing rate, spectrograms, with different types of classifiers to estimate the type and amount of the content with acoustic data, and geometric approaches with visual data to determine the capacity of the container. Results on a newly distributed dataset show that audio alone is a strong modality and methods achieves a weighted average F1-score up to 81% and 97% for content type and level classification, respectively. Estimating the container capacity with vision-only approaches and filling mass with multi-modal, multi-stage algorithms reaches up to 65% weighted average capacity and mass scores.
Interactive multimedia educational content has recently been of interest to attract attention on the learner and increase understanding by the latter. In parallel several open source authoring tools offer a quick and easy production of this type of c ontent. As such, our contribution is to mediatize a course i.e. English with the authoring system Xerte which is intended both for simple users and developers in ActionScript. An experiment of course is conducted on a sample of a private schools students. At the end of this experience, we administered a questionnaire to evaluate the device, the results obtained, evidenced by the favorable reception of interactive multimedia integration in educational content.
In this paper, we provide two case studies to demonstrate how artificial intelligence can empower civil engineering. In the first case, a machine learning-assisted framework, BRAILS, is proposed for city-scale building information modeling. Building information modeling (BIM) is an efficient way of describing buildings, which is essential to architecture, engineering, and construction. Our proposed framework employs deep learning technique to extract visual information of buildings from satellite/street view images. Further, a novel machine learning (ML)-based statistical tool, SURF, is proposed to discover the spatial patterns in building metadata. The second case focuses on the task of soft-story building classification. Soft-story buildings are a type of buildings prone to collapse during a moderate or severe earthquake. Hence, identifying and retrofitting such buildings is vital in the current earthquake preparedness efforts. For this task, we propose an automated deep learning-based procedure for identifying soft-story buildings from street view images at a regional scale. We also create a large-scale building image database and a semi-automated image labeling approach that effectively annotates new database entries. Through extensive computational experiments, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
