From Language To Vision: A Case Study of Text Animation
This addresses the need for automated text-to-animation conversion, which has applications in education and visualization, but appears incremental as it builds on existing text and animation methods.
The paper tackles the problem of converting free text into animations, specifically visualizing elementary Physics laws, and presents a text visualization system that demonstrates this capability.
Information can be expressed in multiple formats including natural language, images, and motions. Human intelligence usually faces little difficulty to convert from one format to another format, which often shows a true understanding of encoded information. Moreover, such conversions have broad application in many real-world applications. In this paper, we present a text visualization system that can visualize free text with animations. Our system is illustrated by visualizing example sentences of elementary Physics laws.
