Predicting Moves-on-Stills for Comic Art Using Viewer Gaze Data

Journal Article, IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, Vol. 36, No. 4, pp. 34 - 45, July, 2016

Abstract

Comic art consists of a sequence of panels of different shapes and sizes that visually communicate the narrative to the reader. The move-on-stills technique allows such still images to be retargeted for digital displays via camera moves. Today, moves-on-stills can be created by software applications given user-provided parameters for each desired camera move. The proposed algorithm uses viewer gaze as input to computationally predict camera move parameters. The authors demonstrate their algorithm on various comic book panels and evaluate its performance by comparing their results with a professional DVD.
