Abstract We explore the use of benchmarks to address the problem of assessing concept selection in video retrieval systems. Two benchmarks are presented, one created by human association of queries to concepts, the other generated from an extensively tagged collection. They are compared in terms of reliability, captured semantics, and retrieval performance. Recommendations are given for using the benchmarks to assess concept selection algorithms; the assessment is demonstrated on two existing algorithms. The benchmarks are released to the research community.
