Abstract :
Recently as digital cameras and web cameras have been commonly used in our everyday lives, we have become able to easily obtain quite a few movies. However, there are some problems in terms of managing movies; for example, it is difficult to find particular scenes in a movie, etc. As a first step toward finding particular scenes, we focus on retrieving scenes where human activity is recorded and annotating linguistic labels on the scenes. In order to annotate the labels, which are used as clues to retrieve, on the scenes, we propose a method to verbalize human behaviors in a movie with image recognition technology. Based on our proposed method, we aim to develop a method that enables us to retrieve particular human behaviors in a movie by words.
