NIST Digital Video 1 - NIST Special Database 26

NIST Digital Video 1 is a public-domain collection of digital video created to encourage more researchers to address real-world problems and support the scientific comparison of solutions of digital video search, retrieval, and display. This collection consists of eight videos, totaling over two hours in length, selected from NIST's public domain archive of marketing, technical, and educational material. The characteristics of these videos include, but are not limited to, different levels of motion (static to fast moving objects), close-up figures (talking heads, moving arms, and moving hands), outdoor shots (laboratory, auditorium, and conference room environments), and various levels and quality of audio. In addition to the base data (titles below), pre- or post-production transcripts are included as reference data.
It is our intent to gather feedback on the use of this collection, the need for additional base data, and further requirements for reference data (or "truth"). Please send email to [email protected] with questions, comments, or suggestions. Or, visit the Digital Video Retrieval web site at http://www.itl.nist.gov/iaui/894.02/projects/dv .
Below is the title of each video included as base data on "Digital Video 1".
