Abstract

Recently scientists have been focusing on a new class of application that promises on-demand access to multimedia information such as radio and broadcast news. This chapter describes how the synergy of speech, language and image processing has enabled a new class of information on demand news systems. We will describe the ability to automatically process broadcast video 7x24 and serve this to the general public in individually tailored personalcasts. We describe several systems and identify some remaining challenging research areas.
