漫畫風格電影摘要

這篇論文旨在研究並實作以漫畫風格呈現電影內容的摘要。電影運用各種視覺技巧於連續影格上敘述故事的特性，已經在影片內容分析的領域被大量研究。然而目前為止，卻沒有針對電影蘊含故事的視覺特性，製作創意內容摘要的研究成果。我們認為漫畫擁有豐富的視覺敘事語言，是再適合不過的電影摘要形式。因此本文藉由重新建立電影與漫畫之間視覺語言轉換的規則，發展一個能夠迅速且有效產生漫畫風格電影摘要的自動系統。本系統依序運用一次掃描的視頻處理技術處理影片內容，從中選出關鍵影格用以製作漫畫畫格，再以啟發式演算法排版畫格並放置對話氣球，最後使用非擬真算圖技術處理頁面，使其在作為影片資訊摘要的功能以外，還具有視覺上的漫畫風格。這個系統易於實作、運作快速，而且擁有彈性的模組架構，足夠延伸用以處理不同的電影類型和漫畫風格，或擴充以適應各類特定的影片處理技術。

This paper intends to use comics as the form of presentation best for movie content summarization. Movies, with its powerful ability to convey stories and evoke emotions through moving frames, find a significant body of research and application in video content analysis field. However, while this art form has been widely investigated using existing video analysis technology, none of them has been able to produce story content summarization with pleasant or satisfactory results. Indeed, the comic form’s naturally rich visual story-telling vocabulary and vivid imagery is ideal for movie summarization. By re-examining the translation rules between movie and comics, we have been successful in building an effective system that produces comic-styled movie summaries within a reasonable time frame. In our system, a heuristic pictorial layout and balloon placement algorithm is proposed after image processing of keyframes selected by a one-pass video processing. By applying comic style rendering, the generated movie content summary is greatly enhanced in its appearance. The system is easy to implement, fast, and flexible; it can be adapted for use in a variety of movie genres and comic styles, and extended to fit in specific video processing techniques.
