Transient Analysis for Music and Moving Images: Consideration for Television Advertising

In audiovisual composition, coupling montage moving images with music is common practice. Interpretation of the effect on an audioviewer's consequent interpretation of the composition is discursive and unquantified. Meth-odology for evaluating the audiovisual multimodal inter-activity is proposed, developing an analysis procedure via the study of modality interdependent transient structures, explained as forming the foundation of perception via the concept of Basic Exposure response to the stimulus. The research has implications for analysis of all audiovisual media, with practical implications in television advertis-ing as a discrete typology of target driven audiovisual presentation. Examples from contemporary advertising are used to explore typical transient interaction patterns and the consequences of which are discussed from the practical viewpoint of the audiovisual composer

Performance Analysis of Multicast Mobility in a Hierarchical Mobile IP Proxy Environment

Mobility support in IPv6 networks is ready for release as an RFC, stimulating major discussions on improvements to meet real-time communication requirements. Sprawling hot spots of IP-only wireless networks at the same time await voice and videoconferencing as standard mobile Internet services, thereby adding the request for multicast support to real-time mobility. This paper briefly introduces current approaches for seamless multicast extensions to Mobile IPv6. Key issues of multicast mobility are discussed. Both analytically and in simulations comparisons are drawn between handover performance characteristics, dedicating special focus on the M-HMIPv6 approach.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figure

Video summarization by group scoring

In this paper a new model for user-centered video summarization is presented. Involvement of more than one expert in generating the final video summary should be regarded as the main use case for this algorithm. This approach consists of three major steps. First, the video frames are scored by a group of operators. Next, these assigned scores are averaged to produce a singular value for each frame and lastly, the highest scored video frames alongside the corresponding audio and textual contents are extracted to be inserted into the summary. The effectiveness of this approach has been evaluated by comparing the video summaries generated by this system against the results from a number of automatic summarization tools that use different modalities for abstraction

A Study of Tourism Advertising Effects: Advertising Formats and Destination Types

This study proposes and empirically tested the AUIDC framework for tourism advertising effects with five variables: Attention, Utilitarian, Interest, Desire, and Credibility. To examine the tourism advertising effects across different destination types and advertising formats, a 2 (destination type: cultural vs. natural) ×3 (advertising format: VR vs. video vs. print) between-subject experiment was designed and tested. A sample of 307 participants was surveyed in this study. Findings indicate that the tourism advertising effects do not differ across the three ads formats of print, video, and VR. VR is even less effective for destinations primarily featuring natural sceneries. Theoretical and managerial implications of this study are discussed
