报告摘要（ABSTRACT）：

Most multimedia applications try to deliver multimedia content to end users according to their information needs. Thus, multimedia computing actually plays the role of a bridge between multimedia data and user needs. In past years, however, the multimedia research community mostly focus on multimedia content analysis and understanding, while the user needs over multimedia data are rarely researched, which results in the Intention Gap problem. This talk will first present the social-sensed multimedia computing concept and framework to inject social factors into traditional multimedia computing to ultimately bridge the intention gap. Then we will show several case studies of social sensed multimedia computing, including social-sensed image search, recommendation, and video replication.
