DigInPix: Visual Named-Entities Identification in Images and Videos

This paper presents an automatic system able to identify visual named-entities appearing in images and videos, among a list of 25,000 entities, aggregated from Wikipedia lists, and more specific websites. DigInPix is a generic application designed to identify different kinds of entities. In this first attempt, we only focus on logo identification (more generally on legal persons). The identification process mainly relies on an efficient CBIR system, searching in an indexed image database composed of 600,000 weak-labelled images crawled from Google Images. DigInPix proposes a responsive-design html5 interface [1] for testing purposes.
