First steps in the investigation of automated text annotation with pictures

We describe the investigation of automatic annotation of text with pictures, where knowledge extraction uses dependency parsing. Annotation of text with pictures, a form of knowledge visualization, can assist understanding. The problem statement is, given a corpus of images and a short passage of text, extract knowledge (or concepts), and then display that knowledge in pictures along with the text to help with understanding. A proposed solution framework includes a component to extract document concepts, a component to match document concepts with picture metadata, and a component to produce an amalgamated output of text and pictures. A proof-of-concept application based on the proposed framework provides encouraging results
