Abstract

Media sharing sites on the Internet and the one-click upload capability of smartphones have led to a deluge of online multimedia content. Everyday, thousands of videos are uploaded into the web creating an ever-growing demand for methods to make them easier to retrieve, search, and index. While visual information is a very important part of a video, acoustic information often complements it. This is especially true for the analysis of consumer-produced, "unconstrained" videos from social media networks, such as YouTube uploads or Flickr content. The goal of the 1st ACM International Workshop on Audio and Multimedia Methods for Large-Scale Video Analysis (AMVA) is to bring together researchers and practitioners in this newly emerging field, and to foster discussion on future directions of the topic by providing a forum for focused exchanges on new ideas, developments, and results. The aim is to build a strong community and a venue that at some point can become its own conference.
