Abstract
The combination of photo annotation tasks and with instant
messaging fun offers great potentials to both end-users and
researchers. In this paper, we first describe our prototype
system that allows users to share and annotate digital photos
over the Internet while they are chatting online. In addition
to manual annotation, our system can extract information
from conversations to generate extra annotations. The advantage
of using our system is that the boring and tedious
task of annotating photos is turned into an essential part of
an attractive fun activity, viz. online chatting. Extracting
meaningful information from instant messages is challenged
by abbreviations, pronouns, jargon, ellipsis, grammatical errors,
ambiguities and asynchrony, all of which frequently appear
in message conversations. In the paper we provide a
roadmap, i.e. a systematic analysis of linguistic aspects of
automated interpretation of message conversations.
