Meta data should be included with your media through ID Tags. Also see this deep-tagging article on TechCrunch. [...]

And many people are tagging audio, video and photo content.

IMHO “Deep tagging” is simply the latest term for an effort that has been underway for at least 25 years by knowledge engineers, linguists and information scientists to find useful ways of indexing, and discovering the contents of “opaque” information… such as video. A plethora of technologies have been developed to partially address the “discoverability” problem: speech-to-text; natural language processing, facial and scene recognition, motion and fractal recognition, semantic entity extraction… Not surprising is the fact that in this day of heightened security concerns from terrorism, it turns out that many of the leading technologies to do this were initially funded by folks like DARPA and developed for the Intelligence Community. Nothing here is particularly “new.”

What is new is that these technologies are beginning to make in out of Langly (CIA) and Ft. Mead (NSA) and be combined in new and practical ways in web applications. Many of these technologies are beginning to make their way into commercial products and whatever limitations they have are being mitigated by supplementing human intervention.

For example, at my company, Voxant, we are using state of the art speech recognition to create transcripts. We supplement these transcripts with advanced entity recognition software to identify people, places, and important noun-phrases. We add to this, facial recognition to identify speakers, and are working on fractal scene recognition to begin to be able to describe “what is happening” in a piece of video. These are reviewed by humans, corrected and fed back into the system to create a “feed-back-loop” that makes our engine smarter. The result is a searchable index makes the otherwise “opaque” video increasingly discoverable and transparent.

Even more exciting is this: Over the next few years these new technologies will mainstream….. when combined with “user tagging” by viewers, the “wisdom of crowds” adds an even more valuable layer of intelligence. Later this year we will start enlisting our customers to help us do this, making the media more discoverable, relevant and in practical terms “usable” through the collective wisdom of new technologies and perceptive viewers.

[...] Techcrunch » Blog Archive » All The Cool Kids Are Deep Tagging: I have a sneaking suspicion that deep-tagging (as they are calling it, I call it annotation) is going to generate too much noise in the signal. At some point, there needs to be a dimension added to the flat non-taxonomic base of “tagging.” Meaning at some point, complexity needs to come from one dimension or another. Be it time, space, authority (perceived or warranted), or even something as esoteric as geo-loc. [...]

[...] Michael Arrington’s TechCrunch article “All The Cool Kids Are Deep Tagging” discusses “deep tagging” videos posted online: Figuring out how to search the meta data around rich content (tags and lots of other descriptive data) is big business. Truveo, a video search startup that launched in 2005 and was subsequently acquired by AOL for at least $50 million, helped solve this problem (but still falls woefully short of perfect). A new unlaunched startup, CastTV, takes rich media searching another few steps forward (much more on them in a later post). But even these new search companies can’t find all of the content in a video or audio file, and certainly can’t take you right to where that content is presented. [...]

Nice Article, Mike. Thanks for mentioning Pluggd.

Pluggd’s HearHere automagically does deep tagging on audio and video by combining speech recognition and sematic analysis. We plan the bubble up the most relevent keyword concepts as tags so users can quickly access segements of audio/video without having to search (although they can if they want to).

I do believe publishers have an incentive, but it is simply too much work for them to keep up with. Besides, the way they tag things might not be the way other people think about things. There will likely be some combination where some publishers do a little work, many don’t, and there is some automation that cuts across both scenarios.

HearHere is only a tech preview right now, but you can play withit yourself on the pluggd web site. There is also a cool screencast.

We’d love some feedback. Thanks.

[...] Yesterday, Michael Arrington over at TechCrunch put up a post titled “All the Cool Kids are Deep Tagging“. What was interesting about this post is how it really shows what aspects of keyword search are broken, by describing how several of the companies playing in video and audio search are overcoming those issues. Specifically, it’s the idea that in podcasts and videos, there may be things we’re specifically looking for, but if we left it up to keywords to be the locator of those, it could be a long afternoon of viewing videos from our results set. Instead, what we’re really looking for is meaning, for example “show me which podcasts (and where on these podcasts) Mike Arrington talks about video search technologies”. Given the number of ways that this subject might be discussed in a podcast, typing a search where Mike says the words “video search technologies” could be somewhat fruitless. But finding places where Mike discusses the various companies that tag videos to help users find what they’re looking for, or finding podcasts where Mike talks about companies that were funded and whose products help media companies better manage what content is contained in their videos, is actually very important but far more complex than keyword search.
