  • ECHO: a digital library for historical Film Archives
    International Journal on Digital Libraries, 2004
    Co-Authors: Pasquale Savino, Carol Peters
    Abstract:

    Easy access to large information collections is of great importance in many aspects of everyday life. However, limitations in information and communication technologies have so far prevented the average person from taking much advantage of existing resources. Historical documentaries held by national Archives constitute some of the most precious yet least accessible cultural information. The ECHO project has facilitated accessibility to this type of precious information by developing a digital library (DL) service for historical Films belonging to large national audiovisual Archives.

  • Visions of Reconstruction: Layers of Moving Images
    View : Journal of European Television History and Culture, 2015
    Co-Authors: Floris Jan Willem Paalman
    Abstract:

    After WWII, Films accompanied the reconstruction of Europe’s destroyed cities. Many contained historical footage. How was this material used, to articulate visions of reconstruction, what happened to the material later on, and how do the Films relate to municipal Film Archives? This question is approached in terms of collective cognitive functions, applied to a media archaeological case study of Rotterdam. In focus are two audiovisual landmarks, from 1950 and 1966, and their historical footage, all with different temporal horizons. This study attempts to position the city Film archive in media history.

  • On missing data treatment for degraded video and Film Archives: a survey and a new Bayesian approach
    IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 2004
    Co-Authors: A.c. Kokaram
    Abstract:

    Image sequence restoration has been steadily gaining in importance with the increasing prevalence of visual digital media. The demand for content increases the pressure on Archives to automate their restoration activities for preservation of the cultural heritage that they hold. There are many defects that affect archived visual material and one central issue is that of dirt and sparkle, or "blotches". Research in archive restoration has been conducted for more than a decade and this paper places that material in context to highlight the advances made during that time. The paper also presents a new and simpler Bayesian framework that achieves joint processing of noise, missing data, and occlusion.
