Description

  The present invention relates to a content configuration method, a content creation apparatus, and a program that can configure content such as a television, a movie, and a Web page by reflecting the sensitivity of viewers and distributors.

  Today, we live in a wide variety of media, including television, radio, newspapers, magazines, movies, music, and web pages. These media contents are produced based on knowledge, experience, or intuition accumulated by producers and editors who are familiar with the characteristics and concepts unique to media. Once the concept has been determined, the content distributor will analyze the contents of the work that has been produced so far by the producer or editor, and select a well-established producer or editor suitable for realizing the concept. It is common to be asked to a selected producer or editor.

  However, there are problems that the number of established producers and editors is limited and it is difficult to adjust the schedule. In addition, in order to create a human-centered information environment with a human-friendly man-machine interface with personal computers that are becoming daily necessities, it depends only on methods based on conventional knowledge, experience, and intuition. It is assumed that the cost burden is too great and the supply cannot keep up with the increasing needs.

  Therefore, in order to support video expression by the general public, video objects prepared in advance are processed interactively using a mouse or keyboard to generate a video, parameters of a video generation program expressed by an artist, and an electroencephalogram. In addition, there is one that associates biometric information such as body temperature and pulse rate, and can easily generate a high-quality video with an archistic, regardless of the creation technique and sense of the video.

  Furthermore, there is a video image generation program that associates biometric information of a plurality of persons with the ability to generate video images that are constantly changing (see Patent Document 1).

  In addition, there is one in which a variety of new contents can be created by pasting a moving image, a still image, or sound into a predetermined control structure or an existing content control structure (see Patent Document 2). .

  In addition, in order to give a sense of reality to the virtual space of still images displayed in the window, when both objective conditions such as era, season, and weather and subjective conditions such as lonely, strong, and anger are specified, they are displayed on the still image. There is one in which a sound effect that matches the moving location of the displayed icon can be heard (see Patent Document 3).

  On the other hand, in the field of character information other than video, regarding the method of extracting the file that the user wants from a large number of documents, each document is attached with coordinate values on the factor coordinates of a small number of dimensions obtained by factor analysis. The file is stored in the database, and when a specific adjective is input from a variety of user's sensitivity evaluation words, the file with the smallest distance between the adjective and the Euclidean distance can be extracted to retrieve the desired information. There is a thing (refer patent document 4).

In addition, when creating a document using a document creation device such as a word processor or desktop publishing, it is important to edit the layout in order to finish and finish. On the other hand, excellent sensitivity and skill of the user are required. Since a lot of work time is required, a plurality of document templates, which are templates for layout editing, are stored in a database, and a predetermined template can be selected from the database by using a plurality of impression words with preset levels. (See Patent Document 5).

Hereinafter, embodiments of the content configuration method, the content creation device, and the program of the present invention will be described.
(First embodiment)
In the first embodiment, an Internet provider or the like acquires the needs of content viewers and the needs of content distributors based on original content (for example, Web pages), and takes action on the original content according to those needs. An example of reconfiguration with the above will be described.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing a first embodiment of a content creation apparatus of the present invention.

  The content creating method of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 uses the content composition method of the present invention, and the program of the present invention is installed. The content creation apparatus according to the present embodiment extracts an information acquisition unit 10 that acquires information about a predetermined Web page from an Internet provider server, and extracts viewer needs and content materials based on the information acquired by the information acquisition unit 10. And a content creation unit 20 that reconfigures the original content by adding an action to the material.

  The information acquisition unit 10 further includes an original content acquisition unit 11 that acquires original content displayed on a Web page, and a viewing status acquisition unit 12 that acquires information on the viewing status of a viewer who accesses the Web page.

  The content creating unit 20 decomposes the original content for each constituent element and extracts the necessary constituent elements based on the detected viewer needs, and the viewer needs acquiring section 22 that detects the viewer needs from the information regarding the viewing situation. A content disassembly unit 21 temporarily stored in the information storage unit, data expressing a material that is a constituent element of the content, an information storage unit 25 storing data classified in advance and data expressing an action, Original content acquired by extracting action expression data that matches the viewer's needs, linking the action expression data to components temporarily stored in the information storage unit 25, and adding a moving effect to the original content And a content reproduction unit 30 for reconfiguring the content.

  Here, in this embodiment, the action expression data is linked to the decomposed and extracted material data, and is reconstructed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, a predetermined language is used. You may reconfigure | reconstruct by the program processing using.

  Now, when the original content is input to the original content acquisition unit 11, the original content 11 is decomposed by the content decomposition unit 21 into materials (objects) O1, O2,.

  On the other hand, the viewing status is acquired in the viewing status acquisition unit 12 by input of the original content, and the acquired viewing status is mapped to the viewing status space in the viewer needs acquisition unit 22 and further mapped to the viewing needs space, The audience needs expressed in adjectives are grasped.

  Here, by continuously acquiring the viewing status, it is possible to grasp viewer needs that change from moment to moment.

  Generally, when a user views content, there are n viewing attributes (viewing place, viewing time zone, terminal used for viewing, viewer age, gender, etc.). From these viewing attribute information, m viewing attribute information (m> n) can be selected to obtain viewing attributes used in the present embodiment. For example, the viewing location, the type of terminal used for viewing, and the viewing time zone are selected, and each condition is plotted on a discrete axis. For example, those having continuous values such as viewing hours are converted into discrete values such as “morning” at 6:00 to 10:00 and “midnight” at 23:00 to 3:00. Thus, they can be arranged in the same space.

  When the viewing attribute is determined, the viewing needs are determined according to the viewing situation. For example, when the viewing location, the type of terminal used for viewing, and the viewing time zone are selected as viewing attributes, and a viewing situation such as “accessing a web page using a computer at home at night” is obtained from a certain user. The viewing attributes are "Home", "PC", "Night", and the viewing needs are determined to be "I want to know details in detail" using adjectives such as "slowly" and "settled" as keywords. To do.

  Here, in order to obtain the viewing needs from the viewing situation, for example, according to the viewing attribute in the viewing situation space, a correspondence table for obtaining parameters is provided, and in the viewing needs space, a correspondence table for obtaining adjectives from the parameters is provided. There is a way. Further, it may be obtained by factor analysis based on the adjective determined according to the viewing attribute and the audience rating.

  A predetermined material is extracted from the material decomposed according to the viewer needs determined in this way, and is temporarily stored in the information storage unit 25. Then, the content reproduction unit 30 links the action expression data according to the viewer needs to the material temporarily stored in the information storage unit 25, adds an action to the original content, and reconstructs the original content.

  The information acquisition unit 10 of the present embodiment has a viewing status acquisition unit 12 and the content creation unit 20 has a viewer needs acquisition unit 22 so as to grasp the viewer needs. Instead of the viewer needs acquisition unit, a distribution needs acquisition unit that grasps the distribution needs of the distributor who distributes the content may be provided, and the distribution needs may be determined instead of the viewers needs. In that case, the viewing status acquisition unit 12 in the information acquisition unit is not necessarily required. The distribution needs can be grasped based on the concept determined by the planning meeting or the interview survey.

  Furthermore, the content creation device of the present embodiment may be a personal computer or a server in which the program of the present invention is installed.

  Next, a content configuration method of the present invention and a processing procedure showing an embodiment of the program of the present invention will be described. This processing procedure corresponds to the operation of the content creation device.

A content input procedure (S102) for inputting content.

  In the viewing status acquisition procedure (S101), the viewing status of the viewer is provided with a counter in the service provider's server so that the number of times the viewer (Internet user) accesses the home page is counted, for example. It can be obtained by counting the numerical values by time zone. In addition, access information such as information on each accessed terminal, such as whether it was accessed from a predetermined personal computer or a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone, and the location of the terminal, etc. It may be possible to acquire information on the location. Further, more detailed attribute information may be obtained by obtaining assistance from viewer input.

  In the content input procedure (S102), the original content can be acquired from the homepage accessed by the viewer by keyword search or the content displayed on the Web page accessed by directly entering the URL.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a display screen on which information for selecting content that the viewer wants to view is input.

  On the display screen of the personal computer (hereinafter abbreviated as “PC”) shown in FIG. 4, a dialog box 100 for a viewer (Internet user) to search for a home page is displayed. In the dialog box 100, a document window W1 for searching for a corresponding home page by a search engine by inputting a keyword, a document window W2 for directly accessing a Web page by inputting a URL, images and sounds prepared by the user, and the like. A document window W3 for storing data representing the material and action in the memory and recommended content 101 linked to a so-called “recommended page” are provided.

  When predetermined information is input to predetermined document windows W1, W2, and W3 of this dialog box 100 and the “execute” button 102 is clicked, information from each user is collected on the service provider server, The viewing status for each home page or each Web page is acquired.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating a situation in which information input from a PC dialog box is stored in the information storage unit as a material that is a component of content.

As shown in FIG. 5, when a keyword is input from the document window W1 of the dialog box (S101-01), the search engine is activated and a list of pages corresponding to the input keyword is displayed (S101-02). ).
The scroll bar is moved to search for the corresponding page from the list (S101-03).
When the corresponding page is found, the information in the page is acquired as original content (S101-04), the acquired information is decomposed, and a predetermined material is stored in the information storage unit (S101-10).

  When a URL is directly input from the dialog box instead of a keyword (S101-05), the home page corresponding to the URL is directly accessed. The accessed information in the home page is acquired as original content (S101-06), the acquired information is decomposed, and predetermined information is stored in the information storage unit (S101-10).

  In addition, instead of keywords and URLs, for example, video data taken by a digital camera or video camera, video recorded on a CVD or DVD, digital music data, or the like is input from the dialog box. (S101-07), the digital data is acquired as material information (S101-08), and the acquired information is stored in the information storage unit (S101-10).

  When a so-called “recommended page” displayed on the display screen is clicked, information in the recommended page is acquired as the original content (S101-09), and the acquired information is disassembled and predetermined. Is stored in the information storage unit (S101-10).

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing details of the content configuration procedure (S2).
As shown in FIG. 6, in the content composition procedure (S2), in order to extract a material that is a component of the content from the original content acquired in the content input procedure (S102), a material that decomposes the material for each component Viewing that obtains predetermined parameters by totaling the viewing situation acquired in the disassembling procedure (S201) and the viewing situation obtaining procedure (S101), and projecting attribute information such as viewing location and terminal on a two-dimensional or three-dimensional space The situation space mapping procedure (S202) and the viewing needs space mapping procedure (S203) for projecting the parameters obtained by the viewer situation space mapping procedure onto a two-dimensional or three-dimensional space to grasp the viewer needs expressed by adjectives. ) And a predetermined material from among the components disassembled in the material disassembling procedure (S201) based on the grasped viewing needs Extracted, and a content configuration steps for temporarily storing the information storing section (S204).

  FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining the details of the content reproduction procedure (S3).

  As shown in the upper part of FIG. 7, the material (O 0, O 1, O 2,... O8) decomposed by the content decomposition unit 21 includes an image element (image 1, image 2... Image i), and an audio element (sound 1). , Sound 2,... Sound j), and various materials 5 such as text elements (text 1, text 2,... Text k) are included.

  Therefore, from these materials 5, according to the viewer's needs, as shown in the lower part of FIG. 7, for example, image 1, image 5, and image 2 are related to image elements, and for example, image 1 and image 5 are related to audio elements. For example, the text 2 attached to the image 5 is extracted and temporarily stored in the information storage unit. Has been.

  The content reproduction unit 30 extracts action expression data “cut” and “fade” according to the viewer's needs, and the images 1 and 5 are connected by “cut”, and the images 5 and 2 are “fade”. Connect. Also, the sound 2 and the sound 7 are connected by “fade”.

  Next, a method for extracting a material and selecting an action to be added to the material according to the viewer's needs will be described.

  First, the SD method was used to analyze impressions received by general viewers on materials and actions of various genres that are constituent elements of content, and a scale for classifying those materials and actions according to sensitivity was obtained from factor scores. An example will be described.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example in which the types of materials and actions that are constituent elements of content are investigated and classified.

  In the example shown in FIG. 8, the constituent elements of the content are roughly classified into images, sounds, and telops, and the images are related to “transitions” related to the effects when connecting the images and the effects of the images themselves. It is divided into those related to “effects”. The sound is classified into “effect” related to the effect of the sound itself and “effect sound” related to the effect when connecting the sound and the sound. Each category is subdivided into categories such as landscape, person, silence, and noise, and types such as cut, fade, pan, and specific song name.

  The contents to be investigated include, for example, video editing software Adobe Premier (trademark) for switching images, Microsoft Power Point (trademark) for telop movement, and Internet sound for sound effects. Includes distribution sites.

  Next, representative materials were extracted from the materials and actions included in the survey results, and applied experiments using the SD method were conducted.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram showing 24 types of objects extracted for the experiment.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the telop has six types of actions such as “fade”, “zoom”, “rise-up”, “spiral-in”, “magnify”, and “typing”, and the image effects are “cut” and “fade-in”. “Pan (fast)” “Pan (slow)” “Zoom (fast)” “Zoom (slow)” “Zoom + Pan (fast)” “Zoom + Pan (slow)” “Push out” “Spotlight” “Zoom switching” "Having eleven types of actions", two types of synthesized speech, and music (BGM) having five types of actions.

  In the experiment, four categories and 24 types of objects such as telop, image, synthesized speech, and music shown in FIG. 9 were randomly presented for each subject, and six-stage evaluation was performed by the SD method. The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the switching method and presentation method. However, because the subject's sensibility may change depending on the components of the content, use as meaningless text and images as possible. Selected.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the question items used in the questionnaire in the SD method.

  As shown in FIG. 10, 24 questionable adjective pairs such as “warm / slow”, “flashy / plain”, “light / heavy”, etc. were used as question items in the questionnaire.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing the results of analysis by the SD method.

  The analysis result shown in FIG. 11 lists the top five adjectives among the question items for each material and action.

  According to this analysis result, telops with little movement (telop 01, telop 02, telop 03) have a common effect of feeling “group” and “easy”, and telops with large movement (telop 04, telop 05, The telop 06) has the effect of giving different and distinctive characteristics such as “light”, “conspicuous”, and “hard” for each telop. In addition, the image effects of “fade”, “pan”, and “zoom” tend to feel “group” regardless of the speed, and “extrusion” and “spotlight” are “hard”, “ It has the effect of giving a “realistic” impression. Furthermore, the synthesized speech gives an impression of “active” and “various”, and BGM tends to give an impression of “beautiful” and “collective” feeling.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating, as an example, factor loadings obtained by factor analysis of the analysis results illustrated in FIG.

  The factor loading shown here can be easily calculated using commercially available factor analysis software.

  As shown in FIG. 12, factor loadings for two factors are obtained here, and the first factor indicates a factor loading with high adjectives such as “hangs on change” and “flashy”. The second factor indicates a high factor loading with adjectives such as “warm” and “beautiful”.

  Here, although two factors are obtained in this experiment, three or more factors may be obtained, and a plurality of factors having a high contribution ratio may be extracted.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram in which the factor loading of each adjective is plotted on a two-dimensional plane having the first factor and the second factor shown in FIG. 12 as coordinate axes.

  As shown in FIG. 13, here, the axis of the first factor is named as the oscillation axis, and the axis of the second factor is named as the flexible axis.

  Analyzing the meaning expressed by the plotted adjectives, it can be seen that the oscillation axis expresses the shaking and movement of the component, and the greater the positive value, the more the degree of noise tends to become, The greater the negative polarity value, the stronger the degree of silence. For example, the feelings of “various”, “flashy”, “conspicuous”, “individual”, “interesting” are strong, and the feeling of “hard”, “realistic”, “easy” It is judged that the degree of silence is strong.

  On the other hand, the flexible axis shows that the flexibility of the component is expressed, and the greater the positive value, the stronger the degree of flexibility, and the greater the negative value, the stiffer The degree tends to be strong. For example, a feeling of “warm”, “beautiful”, and “natural” has a high degree of flexibility, and a feeling of “hard” and “realistic” has a strong degree of rigidity.

  Therefore, the viewer's impression expressed by each adjective and the analysis result shown in FIG. 11 are contrasted, and the viewer needs expressed by the adjective and the impression that the material or action that constitutes the content gives to the viewer It can be seen that the material and action according to the viewer's needs can be extracted by the correlation.

  Here, two coordinate axes are used and the factor loading is plotted on a two-dimensional plane, but it may be plotted on a two-dimensional plane using three coordinate axes.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing 24 types of objects plotted based on the factor scores calculated using the analysis results shown in FIG. 11 and the factor loadings shown in FIG.

  The 24 types of objects shown in FIG. 14 are plotted on a two-dimensional plane with the oscillation axis and the flexible axis shown in FIG. 13 as coordinate axes and factor scores as coordinate memories.

  Here, the factor score is, for example, a combination of the factor loadings of the first and second factors as coefficients and the factor score as a variable with respect to the overall evaluation score obtained by aggregating the adjective evaluation points in the analysis results for each of 24 types of objects. The equation can be obtained by solving using commercially available software.

  When 24 types of objects plotted on a two-dimensional plane are viewed in the direction of the sway axis, the spotlighted image (image effect 10) and spiral telop (telop 04) have high factor scores, and cut and slow panning It can be seen that the scores of the image (image effect 01, image effect 04) and the faded telop (telop 01) are low. Further, when viewed in the flexible axis direction, BGM (BGM01 to 05), images to be faded in and telop (image effect 02, telop 01) have high scores, fast zoom image (image effect 05), typing telop (telop) 06), it can be seen that the score of the synthesized sound (synthesized sound 02) is low.

  Therefore, in order to make it easier to grasp the image of the rocking axis and the flexible axis for plotting the factor scores, for example, the rocking axis can be renamed as “Energeticness-Degree of Degree”, and the flexible axis can be renamed as “Degree of Attention” .

When the name is changed in this way and the significance of the coordinate space is easy to understand, a predetermined object, that is, a material or an action constituting the content can be directly extracted from the position of the coordinate space and the viewer's needs or the distribution needs.

  Therefore, it is possible to extract data that matches the viewer needs converted into coordinate values by storing the action expression data given the factor score obtained by such a method in the information storage unit. Become.

  It is also possible to display a two-dimensional graph with the swing axis and the flexible axis as coordinates on the screen, plot the viewer's needs on the coordinates, and select materials and actions that are close to the plotted point.

Here, since the subjective evaluation value may change depending on the constituent elements of the content, this experiment is performed using meaningless characters and images as constituent elements as much as possible. However, the factor score given to the material expression data that is actually stored in the information storage unit is obtained by adding the content components, and the action expression data continues to be cut several times, for example. It is desirable to obtain and store the factor score when each object is compounded, such as when cut or fade is repeated.
(Second Embodiment)
In the second embodiment, materials that are content components (images, sounds, telops, etc.) are prepared in advance, and a material that matches the acquired viewer needs is extracted and placed on a template that matches the needs. An example will be described in which new contents (for example, animations and advertisements) are created by arranging the extracted materials while matching actions that match the needs prepared in advance with those materials.
