Description

Artwork Information Provision System

[0001] The present invention relates to a system for providing information on works of art, and relates to a system for providing information on works of art that can be widely and easily transmitted through a user terminal with easy accessibility, and that has high accuracy and reliability when searching for works of art.

[0002] Recently, the domestic art market has been growing rapidly, and artists from the MZ generation in particular are engaging in diverse artistic activities regardless of genre, presenting works that reflect their creativity and originality.

[0003] As the works of celebrities and influencers become more public, access to art has become much easier. Unlike in the past, the art market is becoming more open, with even the younger generation in their 20s and 30s participating in art fairs, rather than just a hobby for the wealthy.

[0004] As such, although the art market is growing, the fact that there are still many consumers who find art difficult indicates the limits of its growth.

[0005] A representative reason is that the resistance to spoon-fed education, which requires children to understand and memorize famous works during art classes at school, reduces the interest in art works. Another reason is that offline exhibitions adhere to the method of welcoming viewers with captions that only include the title, artist, name of the work, and materials, without any additional explanation.

[0006] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems and increase accessibility to art works, research on an art work information provision system is necessary.

[0021]

[0022] Example 1

[0023] Referring to FIG. 1, an art work information providing system (1000) according to an embodiment of the present invention may include an input unit (1100), a database unit (1200), an analysis unit (1300), and a display unit (1400).

[0024] More specifically, the input unit (1100) receives search information for searching for art works through a pre-designated user terminal.

[0025] The above search information may be input with at least one of a photo, an image, text, or a tag.

[0026] For example, the user can take a picture of a work of art through the user terminal, upload an image of a work of art, enter text, or select a tag as described below to input information.

[0027]

[0028] Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 2, the database unit (1200) converts information on a work of art into data and stores the information on the work of art in an art work information DB (1210).

[0029] At this time, the above art work information includes at least one of art association data, artist data, and user input data, and may be updated at preset intervals.

[0030] For example, when a new artwork is updated, metadata including the artwork's title, year, artist, representative color, type, genre, style, expression technique, location, reviews, keywords, and related links may be uploaded together with the new artwork image from a designated administrator terminal.

[0031]

[0032] Additionally, the database unit (1200) may include a tagging unit (1220) that assigns tags to art works being digitized.

[0033] The tag assigned by the tagging unit (1220) may be configured to include a first tag and a second tag.

[0034] The first tag includes at least one of the type, genre, style, and expressive technique of the artwork, and the second tag includes at least one of the color of the artwork, the time period expressed by the artwork, and related music.

[0035] For example, the type of the first tag is at least one of painting, sculpture, installation, drawing, photography, collage, ceramics, and fabric art; the genre is at least one of abstract painting, realism, portrait painting, landscape painting, still life painting, watercolor painting, oil painting, oriental painting, western painting, mural painting, and croquis; the style is at least one of Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Neoclassicism, Romanticism, Naturalism, Realism, Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Neo-Impressionism, Symbolism, Fauvism, Cubism, Abstract Art, Neoplasticism, Expressionism, Futurism, Dadiism, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Monochrome, Informel, Outsider Art, Pop Art, Nouveau Realism, Kinetic Art, Op Art, Minimalism, Conceptual Art, Plexus, and Land Art; and the expression technique is at least one of decalcomania, scratching, marbling, collage, frottage, mosaic, and dripping.

[0036] In addition, the color of the artwork, which is the second tag, can be expressed as a color representing the artwork, such as blue or red, and the time zone expressed by the artwork can be expressed as morning, noon, evening, night, etc., and the related music can be expressed as jazz, swing, ballad, etc.

[0037] At this time, referring to FIG. 3, the tagging unit (1220) may further include a music matching unit (1221) that stores coded music types in the database unit (1200) and matches and tags the stored music types to new art works when new art works are added to the database unit (1200).

[0038] For example, when matching music to the new art work, matching can be done by utilizing metadata included in the art work or by utilizing information derived by entering the metadata into a pre-designated search engine, etc.

[0039]

[0040] Meanwhile, the analysis unit (1300) performs a search based on the search information input through the input unit (1100) and the art work information stored in the database unit (1200), and derives a result.

[0041] At this time, if the search information input through the input unit (1100) is a tag, the analysis unit (1300) can derive search results for works that satisfy multiple tags including the first tag and the second tag.

[0042] Additionally, search results can be derived by applying multiple search information in a composite manner.

[0043] For example, as shown in Figure 4, by simultaneously entering landscape as the first tag, blue as the user's preferred color as the second tag, evening as the time zone expressed by the work, and jazz as the related music, the search result 'Summer Evening in Skagen (1893). Skagen Museum' can be derived by including all of these (AND operation).

[0044]

[0045] Meanwhile, the display unit (1400) outputs the results derived from the analysis unit to a user terminal, etc., to provide information on the artwork.

[0046]

[0047] <Example 2>

[0048] Meanwhile, an art work information provision system (1000) according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured in the same manner as the first embodiment, but may further include a title word extraction unit (1222) in the tagging unit (1220).

[0049] More specifically, when a new work of art is added to the data database section (1200), a preset word can be extracted from the title of the work of art through the title word extraction section (1222), and the corresponding tag can be automatically classified according to the word.

[0050] For example, the words may be organized into time zone groups, color groups, place groups, music groups, etc., and tags corresponding to words within the groups may be automatically classified.

[0051] In particular, if the title of the above-mentioned artwork includes a word indicating a preset time zone, it may include a time zone tagging section that assigns a time zone tag and a time zone verification section that verifies the same.

[0052] For example, preset time zone groups can be set to morning, lunch, evening, and night, and preset words for these can be extracted, such as morning, sunrise, sunshine, morning, am, morning, dawn, dew, etc. for morning, lunch, lunch, afternoon, midday, day, mid-day, noon, etc. for lunch, evening, sunset, glow, evening, twilight, etc. for evening, and night, night, star, moon, midnight, etc. for night.

[0053] Additionally, the above word groups are preset by the administrator and can be added, deleted, or changed by the administrator or user.

[0054] Meanwhile, the above time zone verification unit can verify whether the new artwork actually expresses the time zone.

[0055] At this time, for verification, an exclusion element may be included to prevent the search results from being derived by deleting tagging by the time zone tagging section even if the word corresponding to the time zone group is included, and the exclusion element may be composed of a first exclusion element and a second exclusion element.

[0056] The above first exclusion element is an exclusion element when the tag assigned by the time zone tagging unit includes at least two time zone groups, and the above second exclusion element is an exclusion element when the connection particle of the word extracted from the time zone tagging unit is a single word within a group of pre-stored figurative expressions.

[0057] For the above group of pre-stored figurative expressions, it includes same, like, more, similar, similar, as, etc.

[0058] For example, if the title of a new artwork is 'Day and Night', it includes two or more time zone groups, so the first exclusion element is applied to delete the time zone tag automatically assigned in the tagging section (1220), and in the case of 'A mother's smile as warm as the morning sunlight', the connected particle of the extracted words includes a single word within the group of figurative expressions, so the second exclusion element is applied to delete the time zone tag.

[0059] Additionally, whether a tag should be deleted can be determined by determining whether the figurative expression is positioned before or after the extracted word within the time zone group. If a single word within the figurative expression group is positioned before a word within the time zone group, the exclusion factor is not applied. If it is positioned after, the exclusion factor is applied and deletion is performed.

[0060] For example, in the case of 'a warm morning sunlight like a mother's smile', the first word of the metaphorical expression 'together' is located before the word 'morning sunlight' belonging to the time group, so deletion is not performed. In the case of 'a warm mother's smile like the morning sunlight', the first word of the metaphorical expression 'together' is located after the word 'morning sunlight' belonging to the time group, so deletion is performed.

[0061] At this time, in languages ​​such as English where the word order of particles is reversed, the criteria for judging the second exclusion factor are applied in reverse.

[0062] For example, in the case of 'Warm morning sunshine like a mother's smile', the first word of the metaphorical expression 'like' is located after the word 'morning sunshine' belonging to the time group, so deletion is not performed. In the case of 'Mom's warm smile like the morning shine', the first word of the metaphorical expression 'like' is located before the word 'morning sunshine' belonging to the time group, so deletion is performed.

[0063]

[0064] <Third Embodiment>

[0065] Meanwhile, an art work information provision system (1000) according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured in the same manner as the first embodiment, but may further include a data augmentation unit (1223) in the database unit (1200).

[0066] More specifically, the database unit (1200) may include a data augmentation unit (1223) that creates and stores derivatives of artwork images through data augmentation, and the data augmentation unit (1223) may create and store each derivative by adjusting left-right reversal, color, contrast, three-dimensionality, composition, etc. when a new artwork is added.

[0067] By including the above data augmentation unit (1223), when a photo or image is input by the input unit (1100), even if the form of the input data is distorted, a highly accurate image search result can be derived.

[0068]

[0069] According to the above-described effects of the present invention, a system can be provided that can widely and easily receive information related to works of art through an easily accessible user terminal, and can search for works of art with high accuracy and reliability.

[0070]

[0071] In addition, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the art work information providing system may be recorded on a computer-readable medium including program commands for performing various computer-implemented operations. The computer-readable medium may include program commands, data files, data structures, etc., alone or in combination. The program commands may be specially designed and configured for the present invention or may be known and available to those skilled in the art of computer software. Examples of computer-readable recording media include magnetic media such as hard disks, floppy disks, and magnetic tapes, optical media such as CD-ROMs and DVDs, magneto-optical media such as floptical disks, and hardware devices specifically configured to store and execute program commands such as ROMs, RAMs, and flash memories. Examples of program commands include not only machine language codes such as those generated by a compiler, but also high-level language codes that can be executed by a computer using an interpreter, etc.
