Media analysis for video indexing is witnessing an increasing in uence of statistical techniques. Examples of these techniques include the use of generative modelsas well as discriminant techniques for video structuring, classi cation, summarization, indexing and retrieval. Advances in multimedia analysis are related directly to advances in signal processing, computer vision, pattern recognition, multimedia databases and smart sensors. This paper highlights the statistical techniques in multimedia retrieval with particular emphasis on semantic characterization.
