BOEMIE 2nd Workshop on Ontology Evolution & Multimedia Information Extraction

Dec. 2, Koblenz, 2008 (co-located with SAMT'08) http://www.boemie.org/boemie2008 Motivation and Scope BOEMIE 2008 focuses on the automation of the process of knowledge acquisition from multimedia content, using evolving multimedia ontologies for the extraction of information from multimedia content in networked sources. The goal is to develop synergistic approaches that combine multimedia extraction and ontology evolution in a bootstrapping process involving, on the one hand, the continuous extraction of semantic information from multimedia content in order to populate and enrich the ontologies and, on the other hand, the deployment of these ontologies to enhance the robustness of the extraction process.
