  2. Vision A more effective system for classifying, storing, linking, matching and retrieving art images

  3. ARTISTE - An EU RTD Project • NCR (Coordinator) • IT Innovation Center • Giunti Interactive Labs • The National Gallery • Centre de Recherche et de Restauration des Musées de France • Uffizi • Multimedia Research Group • Victoria and Albert Museum • Budget on € 2.77M (EC € 1.8M) • 22.5 man years over 30 months http://www.artisteweb.org

  4. ARTISTE Objectives • Business Objectives • Identify how the technical systems developed in the project can be deployed and exploited in a number of sectors • Establish business models that give the content owners direct control over the distributed representation, access and exploitation of digital multimedia content and metadata • Ensure that the vision and results of the project become as widely known and understood as possible

  5. ARTISTE Objectives • Technical Objectives • Meet specified end-user requirements for achieving a system directly useful to professional users in the fine arts. • Develop automatic metadata representations for image categorisation • Develop seamless distributed access to multiple collections • Develop distributed content-based navigation methods for art collections • Develop image analysis algorithms to assist the work of Art Professionals • Build and prove the value of a robust and scalable integrated environment that incorporates the above components using the TeraData Object-Relational database

  6. Core Technologies • Distributed links server software, user interfaces, and content-based navigation software • Content based analysis for the automatic extraction of color, shape and texture features • Art collection integration through a web based architecture • Teradata Object Relational database for the effective management and analysis of huge repository of large high resolution images • Dynamic metadata system for image categorization primarily based on XML

  9. PM6 PM12 PM18 PM24 PM30 ARTISTE System Milestones 1. Prototype: Initial Query-layer and sample algorithms based on initial user requirements 3. Prototype: Metadata incorporated, content-based navigation, and initial recognition algorithms PM0 2. Prototype: Design complete, Distributed linking and initial pigment identification algorithms based on final user requirements 4. Final System PM = Project Month

  10. Prototype evaluation: PM10, PM16, PM22, PM30 Report on Data Capture, PM9 Image content analysis algorithms report, PM24 ARTISTE Metadata Standards Positioning, PM30 Description of Linking and content based navigation technology, PM24 User Interface description, PM24 User Defined Module report, PM12 System Integration report, PM26 ARTISTE Web, PM2 Dissemination and Exploitation plans, PM6 Collection Management systems Migration report, PM24 ORDBMS Requirements analysis, PM12 ORDBMS support evaluation, PM24 ORDBMS enhancements, PM24 ARTISTE TIP, PM30 ARTISTE Documentation Milestones PM = Project Month

  11. User Groups • User Partners: Partners of the project who provide detailed requirements and monitor and test the system (Uffizi, C2RMF, VAM, NG). • User profiles: The project targets a wide range of profiles. More generally, the User profiles profile group, is set by those, who will use the application directly and will have their activities supported. (museums curators, researchers, historians, conservators, publishers and editors, auctioneers, art amateurs). • Other Users: who has an interest in the system or is affected by its functioning without directly using it (education and mass end users, support personnel).

  12. User Goals • G1: Matching of similar images • G2: Automatic search using synonyms • G3: Search based on the concept of style • G4: Search based on features oriented to the restoration framework • G5: Access information quickly and easily • G6: Search based on colour, pigment features • G7: Query by low quality images (faxes) • G8: Queryby sketch • G9: Query refinement • G10: Joint retrieval by content and by text • G11: Use of publishing products built on the Artiste system • G12: Detail finding • G13: Search usingmultilingual vocabulary

  13. Some Examples Victoria and Albert Museum

  14. Some examples (continued) C2RMF Seneque: Colour image (Louvre) normal light acquisition, craquelure network racking light acquisition, crack in the wood

  15. Some examples (continued): C2RMF Seneque: Colour image (Louvre) UV acquisition, repeints reverse acquisition, tool marks, crack in the wood

  16. ARTISTE AIUG and Advisory Panel Members of the Artiste Interest User’s Group will: • Receive the AIUG Newsletter giving regular updates on the project's progress, plus news on related subjects and events • Receive invitations to attend workshops where you will see how the project vision is developing and meet other professionals to exchange views (first workshop due to take place towards the end of 2000) • Have other opportunities to provide feedback to the project and influence how it develops to meet the needs of professionals Members of the ARTISTE Advisory Panel will: • Review selected deliverables or assess ARTISTE prototypes • Provide guidelines on the overall direction of the project. • Occasionally participate in ARTISTE PMT Meetings
