چکیده

Coming up with new and creative advertisements is a sophisticated task for humans, because creativity requires breaking conventional associations to create new juxtaposition of familiar objects. Using objects in an uncommon context attracts the viewers attention and is an effective way to communicate a message in advertisements. Perceptual similarity seems to be a major source for creativity in the domain of visual metaphors, e.g. replacing objects by perceptually similar, but conceptually different objects is a common technique to create new, interesting and unconventional interpretations. In this paper, we analyzed the role of perceptual similarity in various advertisements and propose an extension to the “Heuristic-Driven Theory Projection”, an existing computational framework for analogy-making, that can be used to automatically compute interpretations for creative visual metaphors in advertisements.

Just Noticeable Difference Estimation Using Visual Saliency in Images

Due to some physiological and physical limitations in the brain and the eye, the human visual system (HVS) is unable to perceive some changes in the visual signal whose range is lower than a certain threshold so-called just-noticeable distortion (JND) threshold. Visual attention (VA) provides a mechanism for selection of particular aspects of a visual scene so as to reduce the computational loa...

Metaphor comprehension : What makes a metaphor difficult to understand ?

Comprehension difficulty was rated for metaphors of the form Noun1-is-aNoun2; in addition, participants completed frames of the form Noun1-is-________ with their literal interpretation of the metaphor. Metaphor comprehension was simulated with a computational model based on Latent Semantic Analysis. The model matched participants’ interpretations for both easy and difficult metaphors. When inte...

Graph-based Visual Saliency Model using Background Color

Visual saliency is a cognitive psychology concept that makes some stimuli of a scene stand out relative to their neighbors and attract our attention. Computing visual saliency is a topic of recent interest. Here, we propose a graph-based method for saliency detection, which contains three stages: pre-processing, initial saliency detection and final saliency detection. The initial saliency map i...

Visual Semantics Emergence to Support Creative Designing: a Computational View

One computational model of creative design involves the introduction of new variables or schemas into the designing process. This paper describes and elaborates an approach where an emergence process is used to emerge visual semantics features in a design as it proceeds. In particular visual symmetry, visual rhythm, visual movement and visual balance are emerged. The processes of emergence intr...
