Automatic Metadata Generation

High-quality metadata is the bedrock of Digital Library systems, as it helps in users discovering the unique content in various collections housed in digital libraries.

Creating metadata is a time-intensive manual process and is done by experts who are trained in metadata schemas, and taxonomies; but the process is a bottleneck in adding content to digital libraries.

Project Sheeko examines the use of machine learning techniques to extract useful  information from images that will assist metadata experts.
