Informedia Project



Informedia Project
<http://www.informedia.cs.cmu.edu/>



"The overarching goal of the Informedia initiatives is to achieve machine understanding of video and film media, including all aspects of search, retrieval, visualization and summarization in both contemporaneous and archival content collections.

The base technology developed under Informedia-I combines speech, image and natural language understanding to automatically transcribe, segment and index linear video for intelligent search and image retrieval. Informedia-II seeks to improve the dynamic extraction, summarization, visualization, and presentation of distributed video, automatically producing collages and auto-documentaries that summarize documents from text, images, audio and video into one single abstraction."




"Research efforts underway apply Informedia technology to the domains of education, health care, defense intelligence and the coordination and understanding of human activity. Informedia also has international digital library collaborations in Europe and Asia that have produced multilingual, multi-cultural and cross-lingual versions."

Technology Spinoff

MediaSite. Inc.

In 1997, Carnegie Mellon formed a spinoff company, Mediasite Inc., that commercially developed and productized core Informedia technology. MediaSite became recognized as a global pioneer in the development of automated rich-media publishing, management and access applications. Its advanced media access technologies, coupled with a suite of publishing tools, operates in multiple languages across multiple digital delivery platforms to significantly enhance a host of media production, business, educational and consumer applications. In March 2000, Mediasite was bought by Sonic Foundry . Sonic Foundry today continues to develop and productize Mediasite technology and products.


Grand Illusion Studios

In June 1996, Carnegie Mellon formed a spinoff company, Grand Illusion Studios, to market a commercial version of synthetic interview technology developed by Mike Christel, Scott Stevens, Alex Hauptmann and Don Marinelli. Synthetic interview technology coupled with Informedia technology creates a humanlike interface with a multimedia data base, allowing people to chat with the synthetic interviewee, appearing in interview form, as if he were there in person. Synthetic interviews provide a means of conversing in-depth with an individual or character, permitting users to ask questions in a conversational manner (just as they would if they were interviewing the figure face-to-face), and receive relevant, pertinent answers to the questions asked. For more information, see 1998 The Chronicle of Higher Education article "Multimedia Database at Carnegie Mellon Lets you 'Interview' Albert Einstein" In early 2000, Grand Illusion Studios was bought by Denver based Westwind Media.com , an internet audio-visual company.
