This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Adaptive Multimedia Retrieval, AMR 2005, held in Glasgow, UK in September 2005, co-located with the 19th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI 2005).

The 18 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvment. Also included are three invited papers by leading researchers in the area to illustrate the core topics of the workshop: User, Context and Feedback. The papers are organized in topical sections on ranking, systems, spatio-temporal relations, using feedback, using context, and meta data.
