Automatic Image Annotation using Visual Conent and Folksonomies
Multimedia Tools and Applications, Springer US, 2009
Journal
Automatic image annotation is an important and challenging task, andbecomes increasingly necessary when managing large image collections. This paperdescribes techniques for automatic image annotation that take advantage of collaborativelyannotated image databases, so called visual folksonomies. Our approachapplies two techniques based on image analysis: First, classification annotates imageswith a controlled vocabulary and second tag propagation along visually similar images.The latter propagates user generated, folksonomic annotations and is thereforecapable of dealing with an unlimited vocabulary. Experiments with a pool of Flickrimages demonstrate the high accuracy and efficiency of the proposed methods in thetask of automatic image annotation. Both techniques were applied in the prototypicaltag recommender “tagr”.
