Project
Approach
|
In SCULPTEUR existing 3D
object representations within the museums
have been collected and augmented with new
3D objects created using innovative techniques
such as multi-stereo and silhouette techniques.
Created new 3D objects
are stored
in a object relational database together
with multimedia objects which enrich
the information associated to the cultural
objects. |
 |
3D objects are retrieved from the
database thanks to 3D object retrieval
algorithms developed during the SCULPTEUR
project exploiting the features extracted
from the 2D image sequences and the geometry
and the texture of the 3D models.
Within the project, a semantic layer (ontology)
and associated tools have been also implemented.
Multimedia objects and objects derived
from them will be associated with concepts
in this semantic layer. Innovative tools
for enhancing browsing,
retrieval and navigation through
the use of integrated content
and concept based queries. We
have developed a prototype
software, generally referred to
as the "Concept Browser" within
the project, that allows users
to access the information from
the museum partners
collaborating in the project
structured through a common
ontology, the CIDOC CRM. |
|
In addition,
classifier agents that can be trained to
make automatic classifications of objects
into concepts classes when sufficient training
data is available will be also developed. |
