Abstract

In this paper, we summarize our results for the semantic indexing task at TRECVID 2010. Last year, we showed that the use of object detection results as an additional input for SVM-based concept classifiers improved the overall performance. This year, we investigated whether a state-of-the-art bag-of-visual-words (BoW) approach can also be improved by adding object-based features. In this context, Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) was applied to find the best feature weighting. The experiments revealed that the supplementation of BoW-based features with object-based features significantly improved the concept detection performance. Furthermore, we showed that a more uniform distribution of kernel weights using l2-norm MKL gained better results. Altogether, our best run achieved a mean inferred average precision of 6.96% and we submitted the best results for the concepts "vehicle" and "ground_vehicle".
