A Natural Language-Based Interface for Querying a Video Database

Onur Kucuktunc, Ugur Gudukbay, Ozgur Ulusoy

Abstract - We have recently developed a video database system, BilVideo, which provides integrated support for spatiotemporal, semantic, and low-level feature queries. As a further development for this system, we present a natural language-based interface for query speciļ¬cation. This natural language processing (NLP)-based interface lets users formulate queries as sentences in English by using a part-of-speech (POS) tagging algorithm. The system then groups the specified queries as object-appearance, spatial, and similarity-based object trajectory queries by using POS tagging information.
