Abstract

In more and more application areas large collections of digitized multimedia information are gathered and have to be maintained (e.g. in tourism, medicine, etc). Therefore, there is an increasing demand for tools and techniques supporting the management and usage of digital multimedia data. Furthermore, new large collections of data are available through it every day. In this paper we are presenting Tourist Face, a system aimed at integrating text analyzing techniques into the paradigm of multimedia information, specifically tourist multimedia information. Particularly relevant components to its the development are Freebase, a large collaborative base of knowledge, and General Architecture for Text Engineering (GATE), a system for text processing. The platform architecture has been built thinking in terms of scalability, with the following objectives: to allow the integration of different natural language processing techniques, to expand the sources from which information extraction can be performed and to ease integration of new user interfaces.
