Introduction
ISO/IEC 15938 (all parts) provides a standardized set of technologies for describing multimedia content.
It addresses a broad spectrum of multimedia applications and requirements by providing a metadata
system for describing the features of multimedia content.
The following are specified in ISO/IEC 15938 (all parts):
Description schemes (DS) describe entities or relationships pertaining to multimedia content.
Description schemes specify the structure and semantics of their components, which can be description
schemes, descriptors or datatypes.
Descriptors (D) describe features, attributes or groups of attributes of multimedia content.
Datatypes are the basic reusable datatypes employed by description schemes and descriptors.
Description definition language (DDL) defines description schemes, descriptors and datatypes by
specifying their syntax, and allows their extension.
Systems tools support delivery of descriptions, multiplexing of descriptions with multimedia content,
synchronization, file format, etc.
ISO/IEC 15938 (all parts) is subdivided into 16 published parts with further parts in development:
— Part 1: Systems: specifies the tools for preparing descriptions for efficient transport and storage,
compressing descriptions, and allowing synchronization between content and descriptions.
— Part 2: Description definition language: specifies the language for defining the series set of
description tools (DSs, Ds and datatypes) and for defining new description tools.
— Part 3: Visual: specifies the description tools pertaining to visual content.
— Part 4: Audio: specifies the description tools pertaining to audio content.
— Part 5: Multimedia description schemes: specifies the generic description tools pertaining to
multimedia including audio and visual content.
— Part 6: Reference software: provides a software implementation of the series.
— Part 7: Conformance testing: specifies the guidelines and procedures for testing conformance of
implementations of the series.
— Part 8: Extraction and use of MPEG-7 descriptions: provides guidelines and examples of the
extraction and use of descriptions.
— Part 9: Profiles and levels: provides guidelines and standard profiles.
— Part 10: Schema definition: specifies the schema using description definition language.
— Part 11: MPEG-7 profile schemas: listing of profile schemas using description definition language.
— Part 12: Query format: contains the tools of the MPEG query format (MPQF).
— Part 13: Compact descriptors for visual search: specifies an image description tool for visual
search applications.
— Part 14: Reference software, conformance and usage guidelines for compact descriptors for
visual search: provides the reference software and guidelines, specifies the conformance testing.
— Part 15: Compact descriptors for video analysis: specifies a video description tool designed to
enable efficient and interoperable video analysis applications, allowing visual content matching in
videos.

The data set is available at https:// standards .iso .org/ iso -iec/ 15938/ -16/ ed -1/ en.
For deep feature descriptors, two levels of conformance are considered:
— Conformance using default neural network: This is a stricter level of conformance, which ensures
that the bitstreams match those generated with the reference software as-is.
© ISO/IEC 2021 – All rights reserved 1

---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
ISO/IEC 15938-16:2021(E)

— Conformance using custom neural network: This is a less strict level of conformance, that allows
using a custom neural network. The deep feature descriptors generated with implementations
using different neural networks are not interoperable.
5.2 Conformance test conditions for strict conformance
5.2.1 Test setup
— Bitstreams extracted with the reference software on Ubuntu 16.04 are provided.
— Implementation under test is used to extract bitstreams from the conformance test set, including all
three descriptor components, and varying the parameters listed in subclause 6.5.4.
— Use the reference implementation to perform pairwise matching between the bitstreams of
corresponding videos.
— Check that the resulting similarity is above the thresholds listed in the following subclauses.

with the implementation under test with the reference bitstreams for the same video. s is the matching
score for the same pair of videos when matching the reference bitstreams to itself using the reference
implementation.
5.3 Conformance test conditions using custom NN
As a prerequisite for this test, at least the conformance tests for global descriptors shall be run.
No reference data is provided for this test.
Only syntactic checking can be performed by using the reference software to parse and match
bitstreams generated with the implementation under test. This shall complete without errors.
