Abstract

Considering an “Intelligent Multimedia Browsing at Home (MB)”, what should be the main benefits of “Natural Language Processing (NLP)” technologies? In that document, MB is limited to ergonomics in which the user cannot or refuses to type a keyword to define a query with its input device (remote control, voice). Despite that, NLP can be concretely or potentially used in many areas. We describe some of these components and the main results.
