The Office Blogger (OBlog) is an experimental prototype of a multimedia appliance that allows an office worker to easily record events, conversations, meetings, pictures and documents, and helps create blog entries from that data. OBlog employs a novel image classification algorithm and automatic post processing to make the information about images more accessible to users. The OBlog system uses an always-on" design that makes it convenient to use and it's packaged as a stand-alone system to remove any computational burden from a user's PC. Results show that the image classification algorithm achieves over 90% recall on five image categories commonly encountered by office workers.
