Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical
activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the
work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee,
ISO/IEC JTC 1.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject
of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the
Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity
assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information

Add the following Clauses after 7.10.4:
8 JPEG Ontology for Image Description (JPOnto)
8.1 General
This Clause specifies the set of classes, properties, and restrictions that constitute the JPSearch
Metadata Ontology (JPOnto). This ontology specification provides the foundation to implement
applications in different domains that can represent, exchange, and integrate digital image information
generated in different systems and under different contexts.
JPOnto users may only need to use parts of the entire ontology, depending on their needs and according to
how much detail they want to include in their image information. For this, the JPOnto terms (classes and
properties) are grouped into two sub-vocabularies to provide an incremental introduction to the ontology.
— JPOnto-core: A core vocabulary that acts as a central component to interconnect all the other sub-
vocabularies.
— JPOnto-visual: A rich set of constructs for semantic visual content description, including, but not
limited to, a uniform description of identities, features, aspect, relationships, actions and emotional
information of people appearing in the images, as well as description of events, locations and objects.
ISO/IEC 24800-2:2011/Amd.1:2015(E)

8.2 JPOnto-core
8.2.1 Outline
A core vocabulary named JPOnto-core is the basic set of entities and properties which serves as a central
component to interconnect all the other sub-vocabularies of the JPEG Ontology for Image Description
(JPOnto). The following classes provide a basis for the rest of JPOnto-core.
— jponto:Image: Represents a digital image.
— jponto:RegionOfInterest: A certain region within a digital image.
— jponto:Agent: An agent (e.g. person, group, software or physical artifact).
The primary classes relate to one another and to themselves using the properties shown in Figure 1.

8.3 JPOnto-visual
8.3.1 Outline
The JPOnto-Visual sub-vocabulary provides a core set of classes and properties facilitating the semantic
description of the contents of the image. The jponto:depicts property is the core component of JPOnto-
visual. The jponto:depicts property allows binding an image with the real-world objects and events
that it represents. Defining the RegionOfInterest as a subclass of Image, allows to also use the depicts
predicate to bind ROIs with real-world objects and events.

8.3.3 Taxonomy of classes of JPOnto-visual
The root classes of JPOnto-Visual (connected by rdfs:subClassOf edges) are shown in Figure 3.
Entity
Figure 3 — Root classes of JPOnto-visual (arrows represent rdfs:subClassOf relationships)
(informative) Design principle: Selection of classes and properties from WordNet
JPOnto-Visual does not attempt to model all possible entities depicted by the images, it just provides a
taxonomy of root classes and properties, a small set of speciic classes and properties and an extensibility
mechanism. The classes and properties included in JPOnto-Visual, along with their deinitions and
rdfs:subClassOf/ rdfs:subPropertyOf relationships, have been selected from the WordNet lexical database
for the English language.

Subclasses of jponto:PhysicalEntity (connected by rdfs:subClassOf edges) are shown in Figure 4. A set
of specific sublclasses are also defined (jponto:Rain, jponto:Combustion, jponto:Face, jponto:Monuntain,

Subclasses of jponto:Event (connected by rdfs:subClassOf edges) are shown in Figure 5.

(informative) Design principle: Minimization of description choices
When multiple WordNet terms may be used to describe the same facts, only the ones with more
descriptive power have been included. For instance, activities such as Work, Game, etc. have been
discarded as they can be described with more detail with subclasses of jponto:Action.
