Abstract

Different from traditional and web multimedia computing which are content-centric, social multimedia computing is essentially user-centric: (1) social multimedia data is constituted by what users see, listen, think, feel, and speak; (2) social multimedia analysis and application is toward customized user services. In this chapter, we first give an overview of social multimedia computing, introduce the challenges and progresses in this field, and then describe the specifications of user-centric social multimedia computing. At the end, we outline the structure of this book.
