Análise de abordagens automáticas de anotação semântica para textos ruidosos e seus impactos na similaridade entre vídeos

Abstract

With the accumulation of digital information stored over time, some efforts need to be applied to facilitate search and indexing of content. Resources such as videos and audios, in turn, are more difficult to handle with by search engines. Video annotation is a considerable form of video summary, search and classification. The share of videos that have annotations attributed by the author most often is very small and not very significant, and annotating videos manually is very laborious when dealing with legacy bases. For this reason, automating this process has been desired in the field of Information Retrieval. In video lecture repositories, where most of the information is focused on the teacher’s speech, this process can be performed through automatic annotations of transcripts gene-rated by Automatic Speech Recognition systems. However, this technique produces noisy texts, making the task of automatic semantic annotation difficult. Among many Natural Language Processing techniques used for annotation, it is not trivial to choose the most appropriate technique for a given scenario, especially when writing annotated texts. This research proposes to analyze a set of different techniques used for automatic annotation and verify their impact in the same scenario, the scenario of similarity between videos.
