This book
gives a start-to-finish overview of the whole Fish4Knowledge project, in 18
short chapters, each describing one aspect of the project. The Fish4Knowledge
project explored the possibilities of big video data, in this case from
undersea video. Recording and analyzing 90 thousand hours of video from ten
camera locations, the project gives a 3 year view of fish abundance in several
tropical coral reefs off the coast of Taiwan. The research system built a
remote recording network, over 100 Tb of storage, supercomputer processing,
video target detection and tracking, fish species recognition and analysis, a
large SQL database to record the results and an efficient retrieval mechanism.
Novel user interface mechanisms were developed to provide easy access for
marine ecologists, who wanted to explore the dataset. The book is a useful
resource for system builders, as it gives an overview of the many new methods
that were created to build the Fish4Knowledge system in a manner that also
allows readers to see how all the components fit together.
