DATABASE
In this presentation, we will explore the
world of multimedia databases, delving
into their definition, characteristics,
applications, and architecture. We will also
discuss the challenges and future
directions of this exciting field.
• A multimedia database is a specialized type of
database designed to store, manage, and retrieve
multimedia data, which includes images, audio,
video, and text.

• Multimedia databases are becoming increasingly


important as the volume of multimedia data grows
exponentially.

• They are used in a wide range of applications,


including digital libraries, e-commerce, social
media, and medical imaging.
CHARACTERISITICS OF
MULTIMEDIA DATABASE

• Large storage capacity: Multimedia databases must be able to store large


volumes of data, as multimedia content can be very large in size.

• Efficient indexing and retrieval: Multimedia databases must provide


efficient indexing and retrieval mechanisms for multimedia data, as this
data can be difficult to search for using traditional methods.

• Content-based retrieval: Multimedia databases should support content-


based retrieval, which allows users to search for multimedia data based on
its content, such as the color or shape of an image, the genre or artist of a
song, or the keywords in a video.

• Scalability: Multimedia databases must be scalable to accommodate the


growing volume of multimedia data.
• Most important types are video and audio
data.
• Characterized by high data volumes and
C O N T. . real-time information-delivery requirements.
• Data must be delivered sufficiently fast that
there are no gaps in the audio or video.
• Data must be delivered at a rate that does
not cause overflow of system buffers.
• Synchronization among distinct data streams
must be maintained
• Vi d e o o f a p e r s o n s p e a k i n g m u s t s h o w l i p s
moving synchronously with the audio
C O N T. . • Vi d e o - o n - d e m a n d s y s t e m s d e l i v e r v i d e o f r o m c e n t r a l
video servers, across a network, to terminals
• Must guarantee end-to-end delivery rates
• Current video-on-demand servers are based on file
systems; existing database systems do not meet real-
time response requirements.
• Multimedia data are stored on several disks (RAID
configuration), or on tertiary storage for less
frequently accessed data.
• Head-end terminals - used to view multimedia data
• PCs or TVs attached to a small, inexpensive
computer called a set-top box.
• Media data – The actual data representing an object.

• Media format data – Information such as sampling


rate, resolution, encoding scheme etc. about the
format of the media data after it goes through the
acquisition, processing and encoding phase.
CONTENTS OF
M U LT I M E D I A • Media keyword data – Keywords description relating
D AT A B A S E to the generation of data. It is also known as content
MANAGEMENT descriptive data. Example: date, time and place of
SYSTEM recording.

• Media feature data – Content dependent data such as


the distribution of colors, kinds of texture and
different shapes present in data.
• Repository applications : A Large amount of multimedia
data as well as meta-data(Media format data, Media
keyword data, Media feature data) that is stored for
retrieval purpose, e.g., Repository of satellite images,
engineering drawings, radiology scanned pictures.
TYPES OF
M U LT I M E D I A • Presentation applications : They involve delivery of
multimedia data subject to temporal constraint. Optimal
A P P L I C AT I O N viewing or listening requires DBMS to deliver data at
S BASED ON certain rate offering the quality of service above a
certain threshold. Here data is processed as it is
D AT A delivered. Example: Annotating of video and audio data,
MANAGEMENT real-time editing analysis.

• Collaborative work using multimedia information : It


involves executing a complex task by merging drawings,
changing notifications. Example: Intelligent healthcare
network.

CHALLENGES OF
MULTIMEDIA DB
• Large storage requirements: Multimedia data is very large in size, which can pose a
challenge for storing and managing it.

• Complex indexing and retrieval: Multimedia data is complex and can be difficult to
search for using traditional methods.

• Content-based retrieval: Content-based retrieval algorithms are still under development


and can be computationally expensive.

• Copyright and security: Multimedia data is often copyrighted or contains sensitive


information, which requires careful management to protect intellectual property and
privacy.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS OF MULTIMEDIA
DATABASES • Semantic retrieval: Semantic retrieval will allow users to
search for multimedia data based on its meaning, rather than
just its content.

• Personalization: Multimedia databases will be able to


personalize content delivery to individual users based on their
preferences and interests.

• Distributed multimedia databases: Distributed multimedia


databases will be able to store and manage multimedia data
across multiple computers and networks.

• Cloud-based multimedia databases: Cloud-based multimedia


databases will make it easier to store, manage, and access
multimedia data from anywhere in the world.
