Abstract

Content based multimedia retrieval systems have been proposed to allow for automatic and efficient indexing and retrieval of the increasing amount of audiovisual data (image, video and audio clips). The search for specific persons within this data is an important subtopic due to its large range of applications. This article describes an original system for multimodal person search and provides some initial performance results that demonstrate the efficiency of the system.
