Merlin^AI NOMAD^TM for Video

Completely independent of textual metadata.

Imagine being able to search a collection of a million images with little or no metadata and get exactly what you want–the first time. NOMAD’s transformative search technology delivers superior results based directly on the visual content of an image. NOMAD^TM has been trained against high-quality image content contained in millions of photos, illustrations, and documents to deliver consistent and accurate results every time. Now you can describe a scene visually and NOMAD^TM not only recognizes the objects, actions and even emotions you specify, but also understands your description and delivers precise results.

You describe it, NOMAD^TM finds it.

Bridges discrepancies between search terms and metadata.

NOMAD’s AI technology also understands language. Just like it knows to group visually similar images, it also clusters phrases of similar meaning so you no longer need to use exactly the right words in your query to get great results. Not only does NOMAD^TM find schooners, ketches, and yawls when you search for “sailboats”, but it understands concepts. A search for “alternative energy” returns wind turbines and solar panel arrays, and searching for “gloomy days” finds images of stormy weather and people with umbrellas. Simple as that. NOMAD^TM delivers what you’re looking for, regardless of whether your search terminology matches the metadata.

Reduces the need to manually add metadata.

With NOMAD^TM AI-Powered search, images with little or even no metadata are discoverable. By employing language pattern matches and clusters of visually similar images, NOMAD^TM reduces the dependency on a controlled vocabulary to effectively search images in your DAM. That means fewer hours spent developing a meticulously curated taxonomy and manually applying that metadata to get relevant search results. Now you can search with confidence knowing that if it’s there, NOMAD^TM will find it.
