Pragmatic descriptions of perceptual stimuli
Emiel van Miltenburg · 2017
This research proposal discusses pragmatic factors in image description, arguing that current automatic image description systems do not take these factors into account.I present a general model of the human image description process, and propose to study this process using corpus analysis, experiments, and computational modeling.This will lead to a better characterization of human image description behavior, providing a road map for future research in automatic image description, and the automatic description of perceptual stimuli in general.
