One of the most important perceptual aspects of popular music is the succession of chords over time. Two tracks based on the same chord succession are perceived very similar and sometimes indicate a cover-version of the same composition. Automatic estimation of chord succession can therefore be used to perform search by similarity and play-list generation.
It can therefore benefit to music providers, online music portals.

Chord notation is also very popular for beginner musicians (a very large amount of guitar tabs are accessible and used over the web). Estimating automatically the chord succession of a given track can therefore be beneficial for personal users through the inclusion of the technology in local software.

All content providers may be interested in the violent scenes detection technology to manage efficiently their content database. In particular, the violent scenes detection technology is an interesting feature for VOD services, as it may help users select a movie suitable for the entire family.

• Content structuring & browsing: Knowing where the most violent scenes are in a movie gives direct access to these events, thus enabling a non linear browsing in the document.
• Content retrieval: By adding additional metadata to contents (i.e., timecodes of violent scenes), the module finds a direct application in the context of content retrieval in videos databases.

Recognition of printed or handwritten text is heavily used in the mass processing of paper mail, filled-out forms and letters e.g. to insurance companies, and has been covered by the media in connection with the mass digitization of books. New usage patterns will evolve from the better coverage of handwriting and difficult font systems like Arabic or Chinese and from the recognition of text in any form of image data that due to digital cameras and the Internet, is being produced and distributed in ever increasing volumes.

With AlvisAE, remote users display annotated documents in their web browser and manually create new annotations over the text and share them.

Web contributors’ reviews and comments posted on dedicated web sites have proven to embed cleverness from which valuable descriptive metadata can be extracted. These descriptive metadata, while being synchronized with the content timeline or not, help any of the above usages and services about content. Furthermore, these associated metadata raise the value of the related content over time, which is of interest to content owners as well as to content providers.
