title: PLARIS: a Web framework for offering automatically classified biomedical multimedia resources.
abstract: PLARIS, a software environment connected to a streaming server, allows classifying all multimedia resources stored in the server. This allows searching into the media-pool with a controlled set of keywords. The system exploits generated data to automatically propose multimedia resources considered most relevant for the user and to obtain general learning paths. Focusing on biomedical resources, inside PLARIS we also implemented a section composed of some questions for each available resource, in order to offer the user the chance to test his/her comprehension of the related biomedical subject.
