An Ontology Web Application-based Annotation Tool for Intangible Culture Heritage Dance Videos

International audience ; Collecting dance videos, preserving and promoting them after enriching the collected data has been significant actions in preserving Intangible culture heritage in SouthEast Asia. Whereas techniques for the conceptual modeling of the expressive semantics of dance videos are very complex, they are crucial to exploit effectively the video semantics. This paper proposes an ontology web-based dance video annotation system for representing the semantics of dance videos at different granularity levels. Especially, the system incorporates both syntactic and semantic features of pre-built dance ontology system in order to not only use the available semantic web system but also to create unity for users when annotating videos to minimize conflicts.
