Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire
The course aims to provide the knowledge and skills necessary for the effective and efficient management of multimedia (MM) data, with particular attention to the problems of MM data representation, MM data retrieval models, and interaction paradigms between the user and the MM system (both for purposes of data presentation and exploration). We first consider architectures of traditional ("standalone") MM systems; then, we concentrate on more complex MM services, by primarily focusing on search engines, social networks and recommendation systems.
Contenuti
The course intends to provide students with methodology, modeling, design, and implementation skills/expertise related to the development of smart "MM data-intensive" applications and services like the the ones included in commercial solutions like Google search engine, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, and Twitter, just to named a few, but especially possible smarter extensions.
Constraints on previous knowledge: nothing.
However, the contents of the courses like "Design of Web Applications T", " Software Engineering T " and, only very partially, "Database and Big Data Technologies M" could be useful and valuable in a few parts of the course.

N.B. Per gli studenti di Laurea Magistrale in Artificial intelligence e di Laurea Magistrale in Informatica per i quali i CFU del corso sono 6, la parte di programma "Efficient algorithms for MM data retrieval" non è richiesta per l'esame finale.
N.B. Gli studenti possono decidere di sostenere l'esame finale in inglese e o in italiano.
Testi/Bibliografia
Education material provided by the teachers (copies of the slides used in the classroom, scientific literature, bibliography, and useful links).
Metodi didattici
Course lectures are in "traditional" classrooms and exploit the slides. During the lectures, the general issues related to all topics of the program will be discussed thoroughly.
Several real use cases will be presented and discussed in order to show how MM data management techniques can be profitably applied in a number of smart MM applications and services.
The course will be accompanied by a practical project, where students will be solicited to complete guided activities, including some amount of autonomous personal work. This project will be needed to complete the exam preparation and to achieve the desired abilities/skills.
Modalità di verifica e valutazione dell'apprendimento
Achievements will be assessed by the means of a final exam. This is based on an analytical assessment of the "expected learning outcomes" described above. In order to properly assess such achievement the examination is composed of an oral exam.
The admission of the students to the final examination is constrained to the upload of the complete practical project into the dedicated OneDrive folder "MDM", following the instructions provided by the teacher (see the slides of the course presentation for more details).
To participate to the final exam, interested students have to register themselves by exploiting the usual UniBO Web application, called AlmaEsami.
Higher grades will be awarded to students who demonstrate an organic understanding of the subject, a high ability for critical application, and a clear and concise presentation of the contents. To obtain a passing grade, students are required to at least demonstrate a knowledge of the key concepts of the subject, some ability for critical application, and a comprehensible use of technical language. A failing grade will be awarded if the student shows knowledge gaps in key-concepts of the subject, inappropriate use of language, and/or logic failures in the analysis of the subject.
Strumenti a supporto della didattica
Classroom lessons will be held using slides, which will be integrated with the use of the PC laptops and blackboard for the development of the practical project.
