Broadcasters usually envision two basic applications for
video databases: Live Logging and Posterity Logging. The former
aims at providing effective annotation of video in quasi-real time
and supports extraction of meaningful clips from the live stream;
it is usually performed by assistant producers working at the same
location of the event. The latter provides annotation for later
reuse of video material and is the prerequisite for retrieval by
content from video digital libraries; it is performed by trained
librarians. Both require that annotation is performed, at a great
extent, automatically. Video information structure must encompass
both low-intermediate level video organization and event
relationships that define specific highlights and situations.
Analysis of the visual data of the video stream permits to
extract hints, identify events and detect highlights. All of this
must be supported by a-priori knowledge of the video domain and
effective reasoning engines capable to capture the inherent
semantics of the visual events.
