Information management includes multimedia data management, knowledge management, collaboration, and agents, all of\nwhich are supporting technologies for XML. XML technologies have an impact on multimedia databases as well as collaborative\ntechnologies and knowledge management. That is, e-commerce documents are encoded in XML and are gaining much popularity\nfor business-to-business or business-to-consumer transactions. Recently, the internet sites, such as e-commerce sites and shopping\nmall sites, deal with a lot of image and multimedia information. This paper proposes an intelligent web digital image information\nretrieval platform, which adopts XML technology for social curation commerce environment. To support object-based content\nretrieval on product catalog images containing multiple objects, we describe multilevel metadata structures representing the local\nfeatures, global features, and semantics of image data. To enable semantic-based and content-based retrieval on such image data,\nwe design an XML-Schema for the proposed metadata.We also describe how to automatically transform the retrieval results into\nthe forms suitable for the various user environments, such as web browser or mobile device, using XSLT.The proposed scheme can\nbe utilized to enable efficient e-catalog metadata sharing between systems, and it will contribute to the improvement of the retrieval\ncorrectness and the user�s satisfaction on semantic-based web digital image information retrieval.
