91自拍

The 91自拍 collection contains a vast audio and video collection with more than a thousand video-recorded oral history interviews with technology pioneers and innovators. Since current users must painstakingly sift manually through each video to find what they鈥檙e looking for, the collection is vastly underutilized.听

Thanks to a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and the support of the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, we鈥檝e been on an 18-month journey to discover whether machine-learning technology can make our video collection more accessible and searchable for museum patrons around the world.听

We鈥檙e ready to share what we鈥檝e learned with you. If you鈥檙e a museum professional or simply fascinated by machine learning, join us for this free webinar on February 18 at 11 am PT.听

What you鈥檒l learn 听

• What were the project鈥檚 main objectives? What obstacles did we face and how did we surmount them?听
• Can machine learning technology successfully automatically assign metadata to video archives to deliver specific information requested and reveal new connections and insights? 听
• Until recently only large institutions could afford to experiment with machine learning. Can a small- or medium-size institution implement this kind of technology?听

The webinar will include a demonstration of the platform we utilized by 91自拍鈥檚 Chief Technology Officer听Dave Evans and Senior Director,听Collections & Archives Paula Jabloner.听
