An Eye on the Future – How Will Media Search Develop?
Automated Tagging, Visual Recognition and Search Methods of the Future
The 10th IPTC Photo Metadata Conference looks 10 years into the future to discuss the changes taking place in image search, tagging, and retrieval.
The projected benefits of these new automated technologies include increased productivity, increased hit rate and the ability to search visually by colour, texture and shape as well as by subject content. But how well do these methods work in practice across the range of imagery in the marketplace, and how can the new technologies be harnessed most effectively?
With the participation of deep learning experts and vendors of automated tagging and search software, the questions of the day will be thrashed out where it matters – at the annual Metadata Conference in conjunction with the CEPIC Congress, among the hundreds of image libraries and agencies whose businesses depend critically on media search.
The Conference will be held from 9.30h to 16.30h on Friday, 16th June 2017 at the Maritim ProArte Hotel in Berlin.
