Interactive Multimedia Applications

The paper deals with the use of multimedia DVDs as tool for training diplomats, civil servants, NGO activist and journalists on specialized topics of current international affairs.  It suggests how a multimedia DVD may be conceived, which elements it should contain, and how it may be used for self- learning. It offers, as an illustration of the pedagogical use of multimedia, a list of DVDs and other audiovisual documents produced and available on Internet in the form of Webstreaming.

Figure 1. Creepy Tracker is an open-source toolkit that provides spatial information about people and interactive surfaces. To do this, it resorts to multiple depth sensing cameras (A, B). It helps the design of systems that handle, for instance, (C) interactive tabletops, (D) vertical surfaces, (E) floor projections and even capture avatars for (F) telepresence or (G) virtual reality.

Rainy image restoration is considered as one of the most important image restorations aspects to improve the outdoor vision. Many fields have used this kind of restorations such as driving assistant, environment monitoring, animals monitoring, computer vision, face recognition, object recognition and personal photos. Image restoration simply means how to remove the noise from the images. Most of the images have some noises from the environment. Moreover, image quality assessment plays an important role in the valuation of image enhancement algorithms. In this research, we will use a total variation to remove rain streaks from a single image. It shows a good performance compared to other methods, using some measurements MSE, PSNR, and VIF for an image with references and BRISQUE for an image without references.

— An automatic verification of person's identity from its voice is a part of modern telecommunication services. In order to execute a verification task, a speech signal has to be transmitted to a remote server. So, a performance of the verification system can be influenced by various distortions that can occur when transmitting a speech signal through a communication channel. This paper studies an effect of the state of art wideband (WB) speech codecs on a performance of automatic speaker verification in the context of a channel/codec mismatch between enrollment and test utterances. The speaker verification system is developed on GMM-UBM method. The results show that EVS codec provides the best performance over all the investigated scenarios in this study. Moreover, deploying G.729.1 codec in a training process of the verification system provides the best equal error rate in the fully-codec mismatched scenario. Anyhow, differences between the equal error rates reported for all of the codecs involved in this scenario are mostly nonsignificant.

Substantial progress has been achieved in voice-based biometrics in recent times but a variety of challenges still remain for speech research community. One such obstacle is reliable speaker authentication from speech signals degraded by lossy compression. Compression is commonplace in modern telecommunications, such as mobile telephony, VoIP services, teleconference, voice messaging or gaming. In this study, the authors investigate the effect of lossy speech compression on text-independent speaker verification. Voice biometrics performance is evaluated on clean speech signals distorted by the state-of-the-art narrowband (NB) as well as wideband (WB) speech codecs. The tests are performed in both channel-matched and channel-mismatched scenarios. The test results show that coded WB speech improves voice authentication precision by 1–3% of equal error rate over coded NB speech, even at the lowest investigated bitrates. It is also shown that the enhanced voice services codec does not p...

The figure of the VJ or visual jockey is key for understanding the appearance and current
uses of what we shall call the “environment-image”, a kind of image which is produced for
an audience in situ, whose emotional reaction has a retroactive effect on the actual production
of the image flow. It is important to discuss a function related to this type of image, that of
influencing a social environment in order to establish a shared rhythm. Furthermore, this
coordinated rhythm influences the perception of each person in respect to the social group
which circumstantially forms the audience. Citing arguments such as those of the historian
William H. McNeill, the anthropologist Michael James Winkelman or the architect and theorist
Iñaki Ábalos, but also drawing on the observations of audiovisual media creators like Jonas
Mekas, we will see how a considerable alliance of stimuli and conditions in the environment
has an effect on the participants’ states of consciousness, resulting in the appearance of this
idea of the “us” as a link of identity. In short, the research places the practice of VJing as part
of the history of art and the contemporary modes of sociability, taking as principal evidence
the aesthetic and political dimensions of image. In this way, we gain access to a conception of
image by placing attention on the bonds established with the resonant rhythms produced by the DJ and, in addition, with an entire system of environmental and relational stimuli. What’s
more, this leads us to elaborate on the project of Gilles Deleuze, adding to the two types of
image he proposes, the “movement-image” and the “time-image”, a different typology, with
functions and effects that are both also radically distinct.

We would like to invite you to join this exciting new project as a chapter contributor.

The aim of this study is the creation of a multimedia totem with the use of video mapping techniques, representing a particular form of augmented reality, in order to provide new means - different from the existing ones- for museum enjoyment. The object of the totem was the creation of a documentary about the full scale reproduction of block NXLVI of the north frieze of the Parthenon. With the words “augmented reality” we mean the addition of more information than what the observer would normally perceive, mediated by the use of a computer. Thus the human sensory perception is enhanced by information generally manipulated and electronically channeled that would otherwise not be perceived by the five senses. Three main aspects define the multimedia totem: indoor use of augmented reality, it’s use for the enhancement of cultural heritage, and the digital anastylosis that makes it possible to reconstruct the missing part directly on the element or on a copy of it. These options provide the opportunity to engage different age groups with the expressive potential of augmented reality also in terms of performance, with the possible transformation of any surface into a dynamic display.

The understanding of characteristics of gestures, such as ergonomic, cognitive and social aspects could potentially contribute to an interface design mediated by hand gestures. In this research, a questionnaire model is implemented to suggest some guidelines about the use and gestures of MYO armband in a map application. The user-feedback and observations found during our testing have led us to offer some practical insights to designers and developers on how the prototype of gesture applications on MYO can be extended.

Virtual Reality (VR) is creation of virtual environment that can be experienced  as if it is really there. The creation of  a DIT 3D Virtual Reality Tour Guide, by modeling an environment of 3D digital images and through the game engine environment, user will be a ble to tour through virtually online and offline.
3D virtual environments offer sufficient assistance to (especially novice) users in navigating the virtual environment, find objects/places of interests, and easy commands to interact with them. This project proposes the adoption of guided tours of virtual environments as an effective user aid and describes a novel tool that provides automatic code generation for adding such guided tours to 3D virtual environments.

This study aimed to determine the usability of a 3D touch screen kiosk system for way-finding at a shopping mall in Ankara, Turkey. The usability testing was conducted in collaboration with 15 authentic users and the usability problems were determined by giving authentic tasks to them. The data were collected using a usability testing form. The participants were given six authentic tasks and asked to complete them using the kiosk. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods, content analysis, and the Mann-Whitney U Test. The tasks were completed with a high rate of success. There was no significant difference between the task durations of male and female participants. The main findings of the study show that prior experience using the kiosk and giving guidance during usage reduces the duration of the tasks, that there are certain problems with the touch screen and its 3D properties, participants' transfer of the types of interaction with which they are familiar to the kiosk experience leads them to make mistakes, and there are some usability problems related to the interface and content design. The results of this study and its suggestions about information and interface design can be used to design more usable kiosks.

The advantages of Multimedia-based technology in describing an object in which the visuals are displayed is can be viewed from not only one angle but also can be viewed from different angles with the 3D technology. The use of multimedia not only in the world of advertising, entertainment and gaming, but also can be applied in the world of tourism, such as historical tourism. Banten is a province which is rich in historical sites, especially in the area of Banten Lama. Banten complex of Islamic kingdom has a broad +-3,5 hectares. For tourists, the extent of this area requires a long time to all of the parts of the region Banten Lama to be enjoy. These cause the visitors can not access the entire site because of the limited time availability. Related to this, the research aims to design applications that provide location information guide in the form of three-dimensional visualization in the area of Banten Lama as an overview of the locations to be visited and provide information about the history of heritage buildings Banten. Then, by using this application advantage, it is expected to help the user to know the entire building site and information about the history of the building in 3D based visualization

This study was designed to examine the effect of the redundancy principle in a multimedia presentation constructed for foreign language vocabulary learning on undergraduate students' retention. During the experiment, students received a multimedia presentation on Turkish vocabulary and answered questions on retention test. Some students received animation, concurrent narration and concurrent text (ANT group); other students received only animation and concurrent narration (AN group). According to the redundancy principle, adding redundant on-screen text to a multimedia explanation where it is already narrated, results in poorer learning (Kalyuga, Chandler & Sweller, 1999; Mayer, Heiser & Lonn, 2001). That is, when making a multimedia presentation with a narration and animation, the designers should not add on-screen text that duplicates words that are already spoken in the narration although students have more exposure to the multimedia presentation when it is delivered in three ways (animation, narration and text). The reason for removing on-screen text from the multimedia presentation is because of the cognitive theory of multimedia learning that is based on three assumptions: dual-channel (Clark & Paivio, 1991), limited capacity (Baddeley, 1992) and generative learning assumption (Mayer, 1996) or active processing. On the other hand, the reason for adding on-screen text is based on the information delivery hypothesis, which states that students learn more when the same information is delivered by means of more paths rather than fewer paths (Mayer et al, 2001). That is, " adding on-screen text to a narrated animation will result in better performance on tests of learning that focus on remembering verbal explanation (ie, retention test) " (Mayer et al, 2001, p. 190).Therefore, the underlying hypothesis of this study is that when the students are exposed to the material in multiple ways through ANT, the learning and the retention will have better results in foreign language learning. Early research on vocabulary learning with text and pictures has consistently found that when the written vocabulary words are paired with pictures, there is a better retention of vocabulary words (Paivio, Clark & Lambert, 1988; Plass & Jones, 2005). Besides, presenting both on-screen text and narration at the same time is better than presenting just on-screen text or narration because students might choose the one that best fits their learning style (Mayer et al, 2001). This small study is expected to contribute to the cognitive theory of multimedia learning literature in three ways. First, the study was realized in ecologically more valid environment than Mayer's experiments, because the experiment was done through authentic classroom experience. Unlike the experiments done in Mayer's cognitive laboratory, this study was done within regular classroom settings. Classroom research is an important way to establish external validity of findings when using multimedia. Second, the study was done in a different content area, foreign language learning. It was suggested by Plass and Jones (2005, p. 483) that an area for future research is " the integration of second-language acquisition theory and cognitive theories of multimedia learning. " Third, the study was conducted with non-Turkish speaking students, which is also another contribution to the literature on multimedia learning. Besides, students'

El desarrollo y la madurez del periodismo digital dependen cada vez más del uso intensivo y holístico de los recursos propios del medio: el multimedia, la hipertextualidad y la interactividad, principalmente. A tal efecto hemos analizado empíricamente el uso de un grupo de recursos multimedia (texto, fotografía, vídeo, audio), hipertextuales (enlaces internos y externos) e interactivos (comentarios) de cuatro diarios digitales españoles nacidos en la red Internet (Libertad Digital y El Plural, en español, y Vilaweb y e-Notícies, en catalán), a partir de una clasificación práctica de los contenidos analizados por géneros periodísticos (informativo, interpretativo y de opinión), para determinar estadísticamente el grado de uso y establecer una comparativa y correlación. Este tipo de investigación es innovadora en el periodismo digital, que lidera la sociedad digital que informa y publica y que se está consolidando en el siglo XXI como una alternativa compatible con el periodismo tradicional. Este proceso de maduración puede explicar la fase primigenia y moderada en el uso de recursos como los multimedia, hipertextuales e interactivos.

Here we invite you to explore the published papers in the proceedings from the  #IFM2021 Virtual Conference. These published proceedings draw from the various and impressive contributions to the III Interactive Film and Media Conference in August 2021. They are organized into five sections according to the themes. In the first two sections, the papers concentrate on social engagement. The first set of papers focuses on confinement and pandemic in the time of COVID-19. The second involves interactive responses to social issues such as migration, indigenous, refugees, and the environment. Sections three and four foreground debates about the levels of interactivity experienced in films and games. In the third set of papers, the authors focus on the medium’s capacities to involve the player or the user in interactivity, while papers comprising the fourth set question the process of immersion and explore levels of interactivity more fully. Finally, in the fifth and final section, the papers focus on the environment of digital art and media, challenging our understanding of what is an “art” and what is “human” in a digital world.

In interactive multimedia environments, different digital elements (i. e. video, audio, visuals, text, animations, graphics and glossary) can be combined and delivered on the same digital computer screen (TDM 1997: 151, CCED 1987: 81, Stenton 1998: 11, Mangiafico 1996. This also enables effectively provision and presentation of feedback in pedagogically more efficient ways, which meets not only the requirement of different teaching and learning theories, but also the needs of language learners who vary in their learning-style preferences : 156, Peter 1994. This study aims to bring out the pedagogical and design principles that might help us to more effectively design and customise feedback in interactive multimedia language learning environments. While so doing, some examples of thought out and customized computerised feedback from an interactive multimedia language learning environment, which were designed and created by the author of this study and were also used for language learning purposes, will be shown.

This article discusses a particular project that attempted to make art-historical research evocative as well as analytical by employing rich, interactive multi-media. This reliance on evocative material extended techniques practiced by television drama-documentaries and considered their legitimacy and potential within academic art history.

As one of seven dramatis personae of folktale morphology, the hero plays an essential role because it signifies the protagonist of the folktale, which frequently appears in the folktale structure. The distinctions in attributes of the hero gave birth to two types of hero: the seeker and the victimised. The differences in the types of hero are vital since they mould the structure of the folktale. Nevertheless, the types of hero discovered were obtained from an analysis conducted on a collection of Russian folktales. In the context of Malaysia, will the same types of hero persist in the local folktales? Thus, this study seeks to examine the applicability of the seeker and the victimised heroes of dramatis personae in selected local folktales. The method utilised to operate the examination was qualitative text analysis (QTA) supported by Atlas.ti, a computer-aided qualitative data analysis software (CAQDAS) to increase validity and credibility of the examination. The outcome of the examination was visualised to demonstrate the heroes application graphically. It aided in the discussion of the results. Thevisualisation was achieved via the Network utility in Atlas.ti. The findings revealed that the seeker and the victimised heroes are only applicable to the Malaysian folktales to a certain extent. Some heroes lack the attributes of both heroes which necessitated the current study to introduce an additional type of hero: antiheroes. Introduction The current study was motivated by the morphology of folktales which advocates the examination of folktales via structure (Propp, 1998). In the morphology, Propp introduced a unit called a function that represents the constants in folktales. The constants of folktales, which are also known as the structures, are building blocks that do not change throughout the entire tale. The rest of the building blocks that change and are replaceable are variables, which are considered as belonging to accessory studies. The use of the function in examining the folktales ensures objectivity in any studies conducted. As an essential supplement to identify the function embedded in the folktales, dramatis personae or the performers in the folktales are introduced. There are seven dramatis personae: villain, donor, helper, princess and her father, dispatcher, hero, and false hero. In the milieu of the current study, the hero was chosen to be studied because it has been found that such dramatis personae permeates in the folktale structure from the beginning to the end which in turn highlights its standing in the morphology. There are two types of hero introduced by the theory: the seeker and the victimised heroes. Nevertheless, the function and especially the dramatis personae as the focus of the current study are the outcomes of a theory born from an analysis conducted on a collection of Russian literary folktales. Therefore, such circumstance beckons an inquiry as to whether the two types of hero are indeed applicable in the context of Malaysian folktales.

Interactive multimedia is clearly a field of fundamental research, social, educational and economical importance, as it combines multiple disciplines for the development of multimedia systems that are capable to sense the environment and dynamically process, edit, adjust or generate new content. For this purpose, ideas, theories, methodologies and inventions are combined in order to form novel applications and systems. This book presents novel scientific research, proven methodologies and interdisciplinary case studies that exhibit advances under Interfaces and Interaction, Interactive Multimedia Learning, Teaching and Competence Diagnosis Systems, Interactive TV, Film and Multimedia Production and Video Processing. The chapters selected for this volume offer new perspectives in terms of strategies, tested practices and solutions that, beyond describing the state-of-the-art, may be utilised as a solid basis for the development of new interactive systems and applications.

O movimento incessante das narrativas, que trafegam por convergências, fluxos, novas tecnologias, experiências e práticas acentua uma complexidade que recentemente passou a ser objeto de maior reflexão no campo dos estudos de Comunicação.
A complexidade narrativa é parte integrante do pensamento humano, assim como os nós neurais, que constroem os nossos sonhos. Entretanto, com o desenvolvimento da tecnologia digital, novas estruturas foram potencializadas, com reflexos nas práticas de produção, circulação, consumo e distribuição das formas de contar.

Through recent artistic practices and technology of interactive systems for music, composition and improvisation have more and more blended and interconnected with each other – a sui generis situation now called comprovisation. The concept of comprovisation applies equally well to the spontaneous generation and manipulation of computer graphics, especially as such graphics are systematically coordinated audio-visually, while being subject to spontaneous manipulation by a performer.
This is explained in terms of the Fluxations and FluxNoisations Human Body Interfaces, interactive dance systems that generate music and graphics spontaneously in response to hand and body movement. They enable spontaneous expressive shaping of coherent complexity and variety. Thus a multi-layered multimodal experience arises. The aesthetic experience of this multimedia spectacle relates to experiences of various prior music and visual art of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries, as well as to hypothetical physical realities. Thus a kind of cybernetic phenomenology of art is pursued and enacted through an embodied cybersynthesis of art with simulated alternate reality. Call it a pragmatic speculative realism, an adventurous technoetic ‘what if.’ As compared to more traditional forms of improvisation, the opportunities for risk-taking and aesthetic exploration rise to a new level of uncertainty, as the reactions of the improviser simultaneously draw from and target both visual and aural modalities, such that the intentions toward each fuse together."

I'm kind of a digital renaissance guy—composer, filmmaker, visual artist, designer, web/interactive creator, and writer. While I enjoy creating my work in those roles, I want to dissolve boundaries between these disciplines, reexamine conventions, and watch what happens when all the elements that make up digital culture mix and lyrically collide. How’s that work? ¶ In HYBRID FORMS AND SYNCRETIC HORIZONS, I explain how I take digitized media —music/ sound/ noise/ silence, still/ motion images, written/ spoken text — and fuse it (using interactive software) into new expressive forms, experimental performances, media objects, and events. While these hybrid forms exist outside established, recognized, familiar productions (films, books, games, concert music, etc), they often use ubiquitous technology (iPods, mobile devices; common software like Photoshop or Flash; the Internet) to realize ‘the syncretic moment’: my term for a meaningful unity of often disparate, even contradictory, materials and intensions. ¶ This book includes short essays, case studies of my own work, tutorials, and a visual framework for experimental approaches to digital media. — Joey Bargsten, author"

This development aims to create a valid product maze game on Interactive WhiteBoard (IWB) for fine motor learning. Game maze is a game consisting of a path or a collection of roads that branch in order to achieve the goal by finding the right path. IWB use for projection game and place which user can interactive with it. IWB cheaper design by Johnny Chung Lee used for this development. There are ten steps that must be carried out referring to the model of the Borg and Gall, but based on certain considerations are not entirely done. The stages are research and information collecting, planning, preliminary form of product development, preliminary field test, and main product revision. The maze game on IWB has been validated by media experts and fine motor learning experts, with valid results. Nevertheless from the field trials revealed that the ease and smooth use of the tool into a separate note. This is due to infrared light cannot be caught by the sensor because it is blocked by students working on the board so that the interaction between games with IWB is disrupted and there is one child who have difficulty using an infrared pen.

Generally, this study is a quantitative study and the instrument used is in the form of a set of questionnaires that have been developed and reviewed by a panel of experts. Cronbach's alpha reliability for all sections of the questionnaire was high (>0.9). The data were analyzed descriptively using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25 to obtain frequency, percentage, mean, interpretation, and standard deviation. The findings show that the use of multimedia technology is at a moderate level (M=3.03, SP=. 940). Inference analysis revealed significant differences in the use of multimedia technology based on teaching experience (p= .030, p<.05) and laptop usage intensity (p=.031, p<.05). This study is expected to assist the teachers and the Kelantan Islamic Foundation (YIK) in improving and working towards the provision of teachers who can integrate multimedia technology so that their work as educators can be performed well)

Progress in image sensors and computation power has fueled studies to improve acquisition, processing, and analysis of 3D streams along with 3D scenes/objects reconstruction. The role of motion compensation/ motion estimation (MCME) in 3D TV from end-to-end user is investigated in this chapter. Motion vectors (MVs) are closely related to the concept of disparities, and they can help improving dynamic scene acquisition, content creation, 2D to 3D conversion, compression coding, decompression/decoding, scene rendering, error concealment, virtual/augmented reality handling, intelligent content retrieval, and displaying. Although there are different 3D shape extraction methods, this chapter focuses mostly on shape-from-motion (SfM) techniques due to their relevance to 3D TV. SfM extraction can restore 3D shape information from a single camera data.

Noor: A Brain Opera is the first full opera where a performer, wearing a wireless EEG headset, triggers videos, a sonic environment, and a libretto with her brainwaves. The brainwaves are also displayed in live-time as the performer interacts with audience members within the confines of a 360-degree immersive theatre, and a dramatic story is narrated between the performer and me. Noor had its world premiere at ISEA 2016 Hong Kong (International Society for Electronic Art) on May 18, 2016. As I conceived and directed the work, its theme was loosely framed around the following metaphorical question: Is there a place in human consciousness where surveillance cannot go? Through images, sonic environment, pre-recorded libretto, and spoken narrative, the opera presented the true story of the life of Noor Inayat Khan, a Sufi Muslim Princess and covert British operative inside Nazi-occupied France, who was murdered at Dachau. It touched upon issues of memory, faith, and the locus of self in light of increasingly invasive and sophisticated surveillance technologies. The performance also worked with the bodies of both the performer and participants by creating a responsive feedback loop in which the performer's interactions with the audience—through movement, gaze, touch, and speech—visibly changed the performer's brainwaves. Noor: A Brain Opera explores the life of a young woman, Noor Inayat Khan, whose father Hazarat Inayat Khan brought Sufism to the West early in the twentieth century. Noor, born in Moscow of an American mother and Indian father, grew up in a peaceful household outside of Paris. When she was thirteen her father suddenly passed away while on a pilgrimage in India, leaving Noor and her mother in charge of her younger siblings. World War II broke out and the family moved to England for safety. Unable to stand idly by as the war unfolded, Noor as a young adult entered British secret intelligence training as a covert wireless

This study aimed to identify the use of multimedia technology among Islamic education teachers in the Kelantan Islamic Foundation secondary school throughout the state of Kelantan. The study involved 127 teachers who taught the subject of Islamic education, Quranic and as-Sunnah education, Islamic Shariah Education, and Tasawwur Islamiah. Generally, this study is a quantitative study and the instrument used is in the form of a set of questionnaires that have been developed and reviewed by a panel of experts. Cronbach&#39;s alpha reliability for all sections of the questionnaire was high (&gt;0.9). The data were analyzed descriptively using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25 to obtain frequency, percentage, mean, interpretation, and standard deviation. The findings show that the use of multimedia technology is at a moderate level (M=3.03, SP=. 940). Inference analysis revealed significant differences in the use of multimedia technology based on teaching experie...

En primer lugar, se realiza una aproximación a las instituciones educativas. A continuación, a nivel metodológico, se diseña una propuesta de modelo analítico y se aplica sobre cinco aplicaciones interactivas que se han desarrollado en los últimos años con estos propósitos. Los resultados indican que el modo de enseñar a los jóvenes a partir de los nuevos me-dios pasa por diferentes nuevas aplicaciones y plataformas que se adaptan más a sus necesidades y ritmos vitales actuales.

---------------- ABSTRACT ENG: This work proposes strategies for innovation in education based on informative interactive projects used in three specific education institutions
(and contexts): Primary school (elementary education), High school (secondary education) and University (higher education). We first introduce the education institutions. Then, at the methodological level, an analytical model is designed and applied to five interactive applications that have been recently developed for these purposes. The results indicate that teaching young people using methods based on new media involves various new applications and platforms that meet their current
needs and life rhythms better than other traditional teaching methods.

In this paper we discuss how the band 000000Swan uses machine learning to parse complex sensor data and create intricate artistic systems for live performance. Using the Wekinator software for interactive machine learning, we have created discrete and continuous models for controlling audio and visual environments using human gestures sensed by a commercially-available sensor bow and the Microsoft Kinect. In particular, we have employed machine learning to quickly and easily prototype complex relationships between performer gesture and performative outcome.
