A standard reference model for intelligent multimedia presentation systems

Context aware guidance for multimedia authoring: harmonizing domain and discourse knowledge

“…In the domain of automatic presentation generation these phases also play a key role [7,19,29,35]. In the multimedia presentation authoring process the interplay of these four phases becomes even more complex due to richer means for representing the same concept, different expressiveness levels of media types and more intricate design issues.…”

“…Research into the automated generation of multimedia presentations has resulted in a number of knowledge-based systems that are able to generate multimedia presentations with minimal or no human intervention. Some of these systems focus on innovative presentation techniques [2,6,7,18,45] that facilitate the synthesis of multimedia documents and plan how to present this material to various users. These approaches are insightful as they model the authoring process from a planning point of view but they are not sufficient for the authoring processes described in Section 2 as their top-down planning approach is too limited for scenarios where neither the individual user requirements nor the requested material can be predicted in advance.…”

Towards Ontology-Driven Discourse: From Semantic Graphs to Multimedia Presentations

“…When building a balanced and coherent presentation, one needs to be aware of the differences between the various media modalities used. Text, images, audio and video all have a very different impact on the way the presentation is perceived by the user, and the system needs to be aware of the differences 4 . In addition, different media types have different formatting requirements.…”

“…The Standard Reference Model for Intelligent Multimedia Presentations [4] provides a theoretical framework which many of these systems follow. It is, however, the different approaches to realizing the overall goal and the context in which they do this that differs.…”

Creating Meaningful Multimedia Presentations

“…Initial fundamental work carried out is the Standard Reference Model for Intelligent Multimedia Presentation Systems (SRM-IMMPS) [4]. Here the authors abstracted from their experiences with automatically generating multimedia presentations and developed a higher-level model which can be used as a basis for developing future systems.…”
