Title:	Structuring and exploiting a large-scale broadcast video 
	archive

Abstract:
	Recently, a large amount of video data could be stored online 
	thanks to the advancement in digital storage technologies. At 
	NII, Japan, we have built a broadcast video archive named NII 
	TV-RECS that could automatically record and store all seven 
	terrestrial TV channels broadcast in Tokyo for the past several
	weeks. In this talk, I will introduce several on-going works 
	that aim to analyze the semantic structures in the archives, 
	and some works that also aim to recompile the video data into 
	new video contents based on the analyzed structure so that they
	could be used for video story-telling.
