Solution Overview

Problem

Caption display systems that change based on sound signals often fail to match the atmosphere of the content image, leading to mismatched caption displays.

Innovation Solution

A caption display control system that includes a display, an image feature extractor, a display form determiner, and a display controller to determine and display captions based on extracted content features, ensuring the captions align with the content's atmosphere.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If caption display is changed based on sound signal, then caption display adaptability is improved, but caption display accuracy deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecaption display adaptabilityVSAvoidcaption display accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the feature extraction process into two independent parts: sound feature extraction and image feature extraction. By separating these features and using image features as the primary basis for caption display form determination, the system maintains display accuracy while still incorporating sound-based adaptability as a secondary factor.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces image features as an intermediary element that mediates between sound signals and caption display forms. Instead of directly mapping sound features to display forms (which causes inaccuracy), image features serve as a bridge that ensures the caption display accurately reflects the content atmosphere while still allowing sound-based adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Adaptability or versatility

If caption display changes frequently based on sound, then caption display versatility is improved, but viewer experience consistency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecaption display versatilityVSAvoidviewer experience consistency
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary extraction of image features that characterize the overall atmosphere and style of the content. These pre-extracted image features establish a baseline caption display form that maintains consistency throughout the content, while sound-based adjustments are made as secondary modifications that do not override the fundamental display style.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system applies local quality changes by allowing sound features to influence specific aspects of caption display (such as color or size) while maintaining the overall display form determined by image features. This ensures that localized adaptations occur without compromising the global consistency of the viewer experience.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

A caption display control system comprises a display that displays content; a feature extractor that extracts a feature of the content; a display form determiner that determines a caption display form based on the content feature; and a display controller that displays the caption in the display in the display form determined by the display form determiner.
