Abstract: Personalized video interjections based on a learner model and a learning objective. A method for adding interjections to a video includes analyzing the content of a plurality of videos based on a set of learning objectives, selecting a video based on a learning objective, determining types of video interjections using an analytics engine that compares a learner model and the learning objective, determining a location for the video interjections using the analytics engine, generating a video interjection for each video interjection type and inserting the video interjections into the video at the determined locations.

Abstract: Personalized video interjections based on a learner model and a learning objective. A method for adding interjections to a video includes analyzing the content of a plurality of videos based on a set of learning objectives, generating and storing educational content metadata on a timeline for the videos, selecting a video based on a user specific learning objective, determining types of video interjections using an analytics engine that compares a user learner model, the user learning objective and the metadata, determining a location for the video interjections using the analytics engine that compares the user learner model, the learning objective, the metadata and timeline, generating a video interjection for each video interjection type and inserting the video interjections into the video at the determined locations.

Abstract: Shape features in natural images influence emotions aroused in human beings. An in-depth statistical analysis helps to understand the relationship between shapes and emotions. Through experimental results on the International Affective Picture System (IAPS) dataset, evidence is presented as to the significance of roundness-angularity and simplicity-complexity on predicting emotional content in images. Shape features are combined with other state-of-the-art features to show a gain in prediction and classification accuracy. Emotions are modeled from a dimensional perspective in order to predict valence and arousal ratings, which have advantages over modeling the traditional discrete emotional categories. Images are distinguished vis-a-vis strong emotional content from emotionally neutral images with high accuracy.
