Abstract
VideoCLEF is a new track for the CLEF 2008 campaign. This
track aims to develop and evaluate tasks in analyzing multilingual
video content. A pilot of a Vid2RSS task involving assigning thematic
class labels to video kicks off the VideoCLEF track in 2008.
Task participants deliver classification results in the form of a series
of feeds, one for each thematic class. The data for the task are
dual language television documentaries. Dutch is the dominant language
and English-language content (mostly interviews) is embedded.
Participants are provided with speech recognition transcripts
of the data in both Dutch and English, and also with metadata generated
by archivists. In addition to the classification task, participants
can choose to participate in a translation task (translating the
feed into a language of their choice) and a keyframe selection task
(choosing a semantically appropriate keyframe for depiction of the
videos in the feed).
