Since 2008, the Japanese FrameNet (JFN, http://jfn.st.hc.keio.ac.jp/) project has been annotating the Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese (BCCWJ), the first such corpus, officially released in October 2011. This paper reports annotation results of the book genre of BCCWJ (Ohara 2011, Ohara, Saito, Fujii & Sato 2011). Comparing the semantic frames needed to annotate BCCWJ with those...

In F-logic and RIF, objects (frames) are de ned entirely separately from function and predicate applications. In POSL and RuleML, these fundamental notions are integrated by permitting applications with optional object identi ers and, orthogonally, arguments that are positional or slotted. The resulting positional-slotted, object-applicative (psoa) terms are given a novel formalization, reducin...

This paper describes the LIG participation to the MediaEval 2011 Affect Task on violent scenes’ detection in Hollywood movies. We submitted only the required run (shot classification run) with a minimal system using only the visual information. Color, texture and SIFT descriptors were extracted from key frames. The performance of our system was below the performance of the systems using both au...

In this paper we investigate a watermarking application for bookmarking of video content using a mobile phone’s camera. A content identifier and time-stamp information are embedded in individual video frames and decoded from a single frame captured from a display device, allowing to remember (’bookmark’) scenes in the video. We propose a simple watermarking scheme and blind image registration t...

This paper investigates the task of identifying frequently-used pathways from video sequences of natural outdoor scenes. Path models are adaptively learnt from the accumulation of trajectory data over many image frames. Labelled paths are used as an efficient means for compressing the trajectory data for logging purposes. In addition, the path models are used to predict the object’s location ma...

Frames in Hilbert bimodules are a special case of frames in Hilbert C*-modules. The paper considers A-frames and B-frames and their relationship in a Hilbert A-B-imprimitivity bimodule. Also, it is given that every frame in Hilbert spaces or Hilbert C*-modules is a semi-tight frame. A relation between A-frames and K(H_B)-frames is obtained in a Hilbert A-B-imprimitivity bimodule. Moreover, the ...

Two levels of description of nonmonotonic reasoning are distinguished. For these levels semantical formalizations are given. The first level is defined semantically by the notion of belief state frame, the second level by the notion of reasoning frame. We introduce two specification languages to describe nonmonotonic reasoning at each of the levels: (1) a specification language for level 1, wit...

Accurate computation of image motion enables the enhancement of image sequences. In scenes having multiple moving objects the motion computation is performed together with object segmentation by using a unique temporal integration approach. After computing the motion for the di erent image regions, these regions can be enhanced by fusing several successive frames covering the same region. Enhan...
