ABSTRACT
We have developed a novel viewer for multi-point video with a socially accumulated viewing log for viewing assistance. The viewer uses annotations of objects in the scene and stabilizes the viewpoint to the user-selected object(s) along with the viewing-point selections.Starting from discussion on two viewing interfaces, i.e. camera-centered and target-centered, we propose a novel socially assisted viewing interface as a director-agent assisted target-centered system. A histogram of the viewing log in terms of time, camera and target of many people's viewing experiences, which we call a viewgram, is used as the source of the director agent, which exploits the viewgram as the visualized popular viewing behavior for particular content. The system can compose the most preferred viewing sequence by referring to the viewgram, for example. The viewgram can also be used as a map of preferences useful in choosing the viewing point.
