project I2RPIntelligent Information Retrieval and Presentationin public historical multimedia databases prof. dr. L. Schomaker KI/RuG
ToKeN2000 • grants for research between computer science, AI and cognitive science • money from Min. of Econ. affairs and Min. of Education • demonstrating that the ‘human perspective’ has an added value • demonstrating that working systems and/or models can be implemented
I2RP partners • CWI • Universiteit Leiden • Universiteit Maastricht • Rijksuniversiteit Groningen • Rijksmuseum Amsterdam
Supervisors + Rijksmuseum: dhr. K. Schoemaker
Researchers + M.Sc. students
Intelligent Information Retrieval and Presentation Information Retrieval: searching in weakly organized multimedial databases Presentation: user and context-related rendering of retrieved results “Intelligent”, i.e., making use of methods from AI and Cognitive Science
Upper-left picture is the query • “boy in yellow raincoat” • …yields very counter-intuitive results • What was the user’s intention?
Human-machine communication • Grice’s Maxims of bi-directional cooperative dialog: • quantity (adapt the size of your answer) • quality (tell the useful truth) • relation (react to what has been asked) • manner (avoid ambiguities) • Current HMC violates most of these maxims
Starting points in I2RP • Bidirectional cooperative dialog (Grice) (maxims of quantity, quality, relation, manner) • An example of ‘intelligent information retrieval and presentation’: car sales Buyer: “I’m looking for a Volvo 850 Estate for less than 5000 Euro”
Starting points in I2RP • Bidirectional cooperative dialog (Grice) (maxims of quantity, quality, relation, manner) • An example of ‘intelligent information retrieval and presentation’: car sales Buyer: “I’m looking for a Volvo 850 Estate for less than 5000 Euro” Seller: “we don’t have it” (logical response)
Starting points in I2RP • Bidirectional cooperative dialog (Grice) (maxims of quantity, quality, relation, manner) • An example of ‘intelligent information retrieval and presentation’: car sales Buyer: “I’m looking for a Volvo 850 Estate for less than 5000 Euro” Seller: “we don’t have it” (logical response) vs Seller: “we do have a Mitsubishi Station of 5500 Euro” (intelligent response)
Reasoning with world knowledge all cars (2) family car! sports cars SUVs (1) Volvo 850 Estate (3) Mitsubishi Station
Knowledge sources in I2RP • A bi-directional cooperative dialog (Grice)… • Requires: world knowledge semantic web, ontologies knowledge on humans user modeling, language
Project Partners • Optima: A user agent for object-based image search • Spreekbuis: A Dutch sentence generator • Cuypers: Automatic user-centric hypermedia generation • GO: Graphical Ontologies
Spreekbuis: a sentence generator for Dutch • UL (C. van Breugel/Arsenijevic) • Performance Grammar Workbench (PGW)
KI RuG Optima: a user agent for object-based image search • KI/RuG, Taatgen/Grob/Schomaker • User modeling , learning in ACT-R
Cuypers: user-centered hypermedia generator • CWI • Stefano Bocconi, AIO per 01-01-2002 • using knowledge on graphical design and communication in the application domain
GO: Graphical Ontologies • IKAT/UM (Floris Wiesman) • ‘Generic tool for searching (navigating), accessing, and editing ontologies’ • MetaBrowser: a graphical browser for information retrieval
Goal of the meeting • a lot of mono-disciplinary research exists • … based on toy problems or artificial data (TREC, multimedia retrieval benchmark dBs) • … barely looking at the user requirements • I2RP we can do it better!
