The research in Multimedia Analytics is focussed on the integration of Multimedia Analysis, Multimedia Mining, Information Visualization, and Multimedia Interaction into a coherent framework which yields more than its constituent components. The two main application areas are semantic video search engines ( Mediamill ) and Forensic Intelligence
