Abstract

Creation of digital iamge and video libraries poses several interesting
and challenging problems. New tools are needed for managing
such as multimedia content. These include methods to search,
retrieve, and manipulate digital media by using the media content
information and mechanisms to protect intellectual property
rights. This paper outlines some of the recent advances in image
processing as related to digital libraries in the context of the
UCSB Alexandria Digital Library project.
