Abstract

We present a set of novel user interaction techniques for fast and efficient multimedia querying and retrieval. Three new types of visual queries are proposed for retrieving different types of multimedia. Iconic queries facilitate editorial image retrieval and social multimedia retrieval. Simple sketches on a map form spatial queries for retrieving location-based multimedia. Sketches on an interactive calendar form queries for temporal multimedia retrieval. We also propose an interactive querying strategy that combines multiple search dimensions, to facilitate easier refinement of searches. We outline two applications that use the proposed interaction techniques and querying strategy. The users found these techniques and applications easy to learn and use.
