Abstract

This note presents an overview of the literature related to multimedia information retrieval, as a tool in the context of inter-connected media. The goal is to propose and motivate a structure to present key focus and successful achievements in the domain. We go through the base foundations of multimedia information retrieval and investigate new challenges. Here, we particularly focus on providing large-scale accurate access to the data from both the user and the computation perspectives. We identify and discuss information representation and fusion as key building blocks of an efficient and accurate information access strategy.
