Editing Informedia Digital Library

The '''Informedia Digital Library''' is an ongoing research program at [[Carnegie Mellon University]] to build [[search engine]]s and [[information visualization]] technology for  many types of media.<ref>[http://www.informedia.cs.cmu.edu/ the Informedia initiatives] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070610040617/http://www.informedia.cs.cmu.edu/ |date=2007-06-10 }} 1994-2008 Carnegie Mellon.</ref><ref>Alexander G.

The program has carried out research on spoken document retrieval, video information retrieval, video segmentation, [[Facial recognition system|face recognition]], and [[cross-language information retrieval]].

The [[Lycos]] [[search engine]] was an early product of the Informedia Digital Library Project.

The project is led by Howard Wactlar. Researchers on the project have included: [[Michael Loren Mauldin|Michael Mauldin]], [[Alex Hauptmann]], Michael Christel, [[Michael Witbrock]], [[Raj Reddy]], [[Takeo Kanade]] and [[Scott Stevens (disambiguation)|Scott Stevens]].
