Quantum developing AI-based media tagging – Blocks and Files

Quantum is developing AI software that can inspect unstructured data stored in its StorNext file system and ActiveScale object storage to identify content in videos, images and documents. The extent of this was revealed in an interview with Quantum's technical director for AI and Cloud, Plamen Minev, published in Authority magazine. Minev works in the Quantum CTO office. Quantum has already developed its AI and ML Content Enhancement Solution powered by the CatDV media asset management system and StorNext file management. This can perform object recognition within video frames, carry out speech-to-text translation, provide video and audio super-resolution, and add metadata to video and image files.
