Special Issue on Communities and Media Computing
With the emergence of large scale social network communities such as flickr,
myspace and youtube, we are witnessing media use and production on an
unprecedented scale. The purpose of this special issue is to address the
technical challenges that emerge through the use of media in large user
communities. Communities who use media as part of a network can impact
content analysis (e.g. detection of emergent semantics), multimedia systems
(e.g. network optimization due to knowledge of relationships among people)
and application research (e.g. novel group authoring). Ubiquitous use of
multimedia can also impact the way communities form. We believe that a
systematic analysis of community-generated media will reveal new insights
about how people interact – social dynamics, the evolution of topics and
trends, groups and communities. We believe that the research can reveal new
synergies between multimedia content, systems and application research areas
and computational social analysis. The focus of this special issue shall be
novel computational aspects of shared media among multiple people
The IEEE Transactions on Multimedia invites submissions to a special issue on
Communities and Media Computing. Topics of interests include, but are not
limited to, the following:
Personalized, community-aware multimedia annotation and analysis Modeling
personal and collective context, as well as knowledge Models for evolutionary
community and knowledge dynamics User interfaces for community-based media
computing Emergence of new semantics – frameworks for discovery Fundamental
issues relating to concept learnability and concept scalability.
Community centric multimedia services and applications Fundamental system
challenges due to very large scale media collectives, including encoding and
peer-to-peer distribution Structure of social networks and its influence on
information dissemination Understanding real-world social network and
communities based on multimedia understanding or communication analysis
