OpenIMAJ is an award-winning collection of libraries and tools for multimedia (images, text, video, audio, etc.) content analysis and content generation. OpenIMAJ is very broad and contains everything from state-of-the-art computer vision (e.g., SIFT descriptors, salient region detection, face detection, etc.) and advanced data clustering, through to software that performs analysis on the content, layout, and structure of web pages.
