Methods, systems, and media for image searching are described. Images comprising one query image and a plurality of candidate images are received. For each candidate image, a first model similarity measure from an output of a first model configured for scene classification to perceive scenes in the images is determined. Further, for each candidate image of the plurality of candidate images, a second model similarity measure from the output of a second model configured for attribute classification to perceive attributes in the images is determined. For each candidate image of the plurality of candidate images, a similarity agglomerate index of a weighted aggregate of the first model similarity measure and the second model similarity measure is computed. The plurality of candidate images based on the respective similarity agglomerate index of each candidate image are ranked and a first ranked candidate images corresponding to the searched images are generated.

Methods, systems, and media for image searching

System and method of analyzing a video, comprising dividing the video into a set of successive basic units; generating semantic tags for the basic units using a set of hierarchical classifier nodes that comprise a parent classifier node and a plurality of child classifier nodes, wherein the basic units are each routed through selected child classifier nodes based on classification of the basic units by the parent classifier node; and generating a semantic topic for the video based on the semantic tags generated for the basic units.

Systems, devices and methods for distributed hierarchical video analysis

Methods and systems for processing an image are described. A saliency map is generated from the image. The saliency map indicates one or more salient portions of the image that have saliency values satisfying a saliency criterion. A scene graph is generated for at least the one or more salient portions. The scene graph represents a plurality of objects detected in the image. The scene graph further represents one or more relationships between each respective object pairs. One or more dataset entries associated with the image are generated. Each of the one or more relationships for each of the one or more object pairs is indicated by a respective dataset entry. The one or more dataset entries are stored in a first dataset.

Method and system for image search and cropping

Methods and systems for video segmentation and scene recognition are described. A video having a plurality of frames and a subtitle file associated with the video are received. Segmentation is performed on the video to generate a first set video frames comprising one or more video frames based on a frame-by-frame comparison of features in the frames of the video. Each video frame in the first includes a frame indicator which indicates at least a first start frame of the video frame. The subtitle file associated with the video is parsed to generate one or more subtitle segments based on a start and an end time of each dialogue in the subtitle file. A second set of video frames comprising one or more second video frames are generated based on the video frames of the first set of video frames and the e or more subtitle segments.
