An Efficient and Effective Reconstruction Method for Image Content Using Attention Points
Akira Egawa, Susumu Shirayama · The Journal of The Institute of Image Information and Television Engineers · 2008
We propose an efficient and effective reconstruction method for digital content to solve the digital-content shortage. First, we analyze users or producers' eye or mouse movement to examine their viewpoints on displays showing original digital content to be reconstructed. Second, characteristic features of the attention movements are extracted, and patterns of viewpoint dependence are inquired using a picture of the "attention map" and a chart of time variation in attention point movement. Finally, design support information for reconstruction and reproduction of digital content is provided. A prototype system was implemented, and several examples are given to demonstrate our proposal.
