Summary

Although information retrieval is a mature area for text documents, search and retrieval of audio and visual sources is still in its infancy. Multimedia search and retrieval is a hot research area whose aim is to handle the explosion of speech, language, sound, image and video data in modern communication and storage systems. In this symposium, we highlight the latest research advances and industrial developments in search and retrieval of multimedia information.
