Abstract

We present an algorithm for video retrieval that fuses the decisions of multiple retrieval agents in both text and image modalities. While the normalization and combination of evidence is novel, this paper emphasizes the successful use of negative pseudorelevance feedback to improve image retrieval performance. Although we have not solved all problems in video information retrieval, the results are encouraging, indicating that pseudo-relevance feedback shows great promise for multimedia retrieval with very varied and errorful data.
