The concept of (hyper)linking, well-known in the text domain, has been inspiring researchers and practitioners in the audiovisual domain since many years. In this talk I will overview a number of use scenarios that can benefit from audiovisual linking, present some approaches we experimented with the past years and discuss the evaluation of audiovisual linking. I will zoom in on the set-up of the video hyperlinking tasks we have been running in the context of the MediaEval benchmark evaluation series and, since 2015, TRECVid.
