A Practical Monochrome Video Colorization Framework for Broadcast Program Production

Colorization for Monochrome Image with Texture

Colorization is a computerized process of adding color to a monochrome image. The authors have developed colorization algorithms which propagate colors from seeded color pixels. Since those algorithms are constructed based on a region growing approach, failure colorization occurs at the place where a luminance changes intensely such as edge and texture. Although we developed, in the previous wo...

Colorization for monochrome image based on diffuse-only reflection model

This paper proposes a new algorithm for coloring a monochrome image. Recently, a few effective colorization algorithms have been proposed. Those algorithms can colorize monochrome images by given some color hint, and they work well as an intuitive impression. However, a realistic colorization was difficult by those algorithms, because they have not used any physical model. This paper focuses on...

A ball tracking framework for broadcast soccer video

It is challenging to detect and track the ball from the broadcast soccer video. The feature-based tracking methods to judge if a sole object is a target are inadequate because the features of the balls change fast over frames and we cannot differ the ball from other objects by them. This paper proposes a new framework to find the ball position by creating and analyzing the trajectory. The ball ...

A Practical Dramaturgy for Actors through Theatrical Production Procedures

Dramaturgy, as a creative and critical act dependent on the theoretical and practical knowledge of theater, consists of two parts with Greek roots: Drama (action) and Ourgia (work and operation). Ourgia literally means to practice, act, and in other words process a raw material. Eugenio Barba divides Dramaturgy in to three parts: Actor Dramaturgy, Director Dramaturgy and Audience Dramaturgy. Th...
