*_Call for Papers_* *ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications and Applications * /Special Issue on/* *Social Media
With the rapid popularity of the Internet, increasingly rich and massive social media data (such as texts, images, audios, videos, blogs, and so on) are being posted to the web, including social networking websites (e.g., MySpace, Facebook, Orkut), photo and video sharing websites (e.g., Flickr, YouTube, fotocommunity.com, kankanchina.cn), and photo forums (e.g., Photosig.com and Photo.net). In such environments, web images, videos and audios are generally accompanied by rich contextual information, such as tag, category, title, metadata, comments, and viewer ratings. While researchers from multidisciplinary areas have proposed intelligent methods for processing social media data and employing such rich multi-modality data for various applications, it is of high interest to discover what cool research is needed and missing in this nascent field.
This special issue seeks high quality and original research based on social media data. The goals of this special issue are three-fold: 1) presenting next-generation technologies for organizing, indexing, retrieving and mining such rich social media contents; 2) employing rich social media contents for multimedia content analysis, computer vision and graphics, data mining and machine learning, as well as speech recognition and natural language processing applications; and 3) enabling and empowering people in social networks. Manuscripts are solicited to address a wide range of topics in all aspects of social media, including but not limited to the following: */Social Media Content/* ² Social context-based media content analysis ² Interactive/collaborative image, video and audio search in web environment ² Machine learning and data mining methods for social media ² Large scale image, video and audio classification using social contextual cues ² Social science discovery from social media ² Social media processing based on social sciences */Social Media Applications/* ² Web driven media creation ² Collaborative systems for social media sharing ² Image, video and audio recommendation in social networks ² Organization, indexing and navigation of multimedia ² Social media-based advertisement ² Visualization of social media */Social Media Systems/* ² Privacy, authentification, and security issues in social media ² Social network enablement via media ² Behavior and community analysis in social media networks ² Distributed and collaborative storage and sharing of social media
