The principal objective of this workpackage is to coordinate activities that facilitate within and between
research workpackage collaboration and to present its results to scientific and industrial communities.
These two main objectives can be divided into specific objectives.
Benchmarking
The collection of large test multimedia data (video, sound, etc.), which
will be placed at the disposal of members of the network for use in development
and testing. The organization of evaluation campaigns through which network members can
compare the performance of their systems on the standard test data. The evaluation plan consists of a three-level evaluation procedure: benchmarks and protocols will be defined to allow the sites to perform
internal evaluations, the consortium will carry out periodic blind evaluations to confirm the
internal evaluations, and the most promising systems will be evaluated with real users.
Dissemination
Scientific community: the work will be present, as usual, by
contributions in the main conferences and journals. In order to
increase our visibility, it is also planned to organize two
international workshops. A web site where all the publications along
with the databases used in the evaluation has been opened. Industrial community: the results will be disseminated through the
distribution of videos, demos, brochures and divulgative articles.
