The Spoken Media project is a joint project between CEIT, the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and the Office of Educational Innovation and Technology (OEIT) also at MIT to develop a workflow based Lecture Transcription Service based on CSAIL's Spoken Lecture system.

The Spoken Media system processes video to create a transcript and/or segmented video to enable the two to be linked via a project-developed browser. Through the Spoken Media browser one can search for a term/phrase, select the video to watch, view the transcript and control the video by selecting within the transcript.

The joint project aims to continue development of the Spoken Media system to address a number of architectural and implementation issues. The resulting system will be easier for institutions to use and integrate with lecture recording/viewing systems. The project also hopes to expedite the flow of important research data from the transcription process back to the speech recognition group at CSAIL.

Synote: enhancing multimedia e-learning with synchronised annotation

This paper discusses the development of a collaborative hypertext application named Synote. Multimedia has become technically easier to create, but while the WHOLE of a media resource can be easily bookmarked, searched, linked to and tagged, it is still difficult to find or associate notes or other resources with a certain PART of a resource.

Arriving at CEIT

I've arrived safely in Brisbane from Singapore this morning. Reported at CEIT around the noon and settled the administrative stuffs before I went on a tour around the University of Queensland with Dr. Zornig. Coming from Singapore, a small country, being in UQ is so different and big. There's like this gigantic courtyard where students sit and lay around during their lunch break or free periods.  It's a rare sight in Singapore. Really really rare I guess. I'm going to poke my camera around the campus and update you fellow readers with some photos.
