The importance of real-time pattern recognition in streaming media is rapidly growing (Liu, Wang, & Chen, 1998). Extracting information from audio and video streams in an e-collaboration scenario is getting increasing relevance as the networking infrastructure develops. This development enables the use of rich media content. Shared archives of this kind of knowledge need tools for exploration, navigation and searching. As an example, to filter out redundant copies of an audio record, added by different members of an e-community, helps to keep the knowledge-base clean and compact.
