Abstract

This paper presents a prototype video retrieval engine focusing on a simple known-item search workflow, where users initialize the search with a query and then use an iterative approach to explore a larger candidate set. Specifically, users gradually observe a sequence of displays and provide feedback to the system. The displays are dynamically created by a self organizing map that employs the scores based on the collected feedback, in order to provide a display matching the user preferences. In addition, users can inspect various other types of specialized displays for exploitation purposes, once promising candidates are found.
