Applications
 
 
 
The AMASS platform is built on a powerful associative database implementation. While keeping the hardware design simple and general, AMASS will support the following applications domains:

 

  • associative database search, including XML based databases (LCI)
  • natural language text search (LCI, iSOCO, VCR)
  • semantic search for individual profiles. Automatic interpretation of natural language questions and search and formulation of corresponding answers (iSOCO, LCI)
  • search in multimedia management systems (MPEG7), including generalization to content based image feature representations and search (VCR, LCI)

 

Other potential applications dmains requiring only a short adaptation time and a constrained devlopment investment include:
  • genomics and proteomics
  • biometrics applications
Interested partners could join the AMASS project as external members - see the corresponding EU rules.
