Using PhotoCube as an extensible demonstration platform for advanced image analysis techniques

As digital image collections have been growing ever larger, the multimedia community has put emphasis on methods for image content analysis and presentation. To facilitate extensive user studies of these methods, a single platform is needed that can uniformly incorporate all the analysis and presentation methods under study. Due to its extensibility features, a plug-in API for image analysis methods and a browsing mode API for presentation methods, we believe that the PhotoCube browser can be that platform. We propose a demonstration focusing primarily on these features, allowing participants to appreciate the full potential of PhotoCube as a demonstration platform.
