The exponential growth of digital information production and
accumulation, as well as its huge diversification, present
considerable management and access challenges. At the same
time, new opportunities are created by the application of
analysis methods for the discovery of interesting and potentially
useful patterns, latent in the data sets. In this context,
recently, we have created the ReCOD Laboratory (Reasoning for
Complex Data) in the Institute of Computing at UNICAMP, Brazil.
The term Complex Data comprises the universe of unstructured,
semi-structured and multimodal data, and therefore covers a wide
variety of data as text, sound, image, video, geographic information,
among others. Although independent research have been developed in
recent years to deal with each of these types of information, right
now we are living an important convergence time and, relying on
recent work on Feature Extraction, Multidimensional Indexing, Machine
Learning and Fusion of Evidences we are, more than ever, able to
create a coherent framework to handle these data. This seminar will
present some of the existing research initiatives, which are being
conducted at ReCOD Lab, aiming at creating this framework. Special
attention will be given to our contributions concerning the proposal
of new approaches for descriptors combination.
