Multimedia analysis and design: a conceptual framework
The paper proposes a conceptual model inspired to semiotic theories, to be applied to the analysis and design of multimedia. We introduce a meta-model with four levels of semantic aggregation. There results a framework of concepts, relations and processes accounting for the multiple meanings that arise from a multimedia text. We explore the effectiveness of the model by considering four commercial clips by the brand Lancôme. Our analysis confirms that the framework is well suited to the analysis, indexing, design of narrative multimedia
Theia: Open Environment for Multispectral Image Analysis
Preliminary results of Theia, a software system for
multispectral image visualization and analysis are presented.
A new approach is adopted, based on modern design
techniques and better tuned to the recent advancements
in hardware. A careful implementation in the C++
language addresses the issues of time eciency, openness
to personalizations, portability by exploiting the advances
of Open Source technologies. Experimental tests on
multispectral images have given promising results towards
the use of the system as a dynamic, interactive interface to
massive data visualization and processing
