Abstract

The prediction of box office performance in performing arts institutions is an important issue in the performing arts industry and institutions. For this, traditional prediction methodology and data mining methodology using standardized data such as cast members, performance venues, and ticket prices have been proposed. However, although it is evident that audiences tend to seek out their intentions by the performance guide poster, few attempts were made to predict box office performance by analyzing poster images. Hence, the purpose of this study is to propose a deep learning application method that can predict box office success through performance-related poster images. Prediction was performed using deep learning algorithms such as Pure CNN, VGG-16, Inception-v3, and ResNet50 using poster images published on the KOPIS as learning data set. In addition, an ensemble with traditional regression analysis methodology was also attempted. As a result, it showed high discrimination performance exceeding 85% of box office prediction accuracy. This study is the first attempt to predict box office success using image data in the performing arts field, and the method proposed in this study can be applied to the areas of poster-based advertisements such as institutional promotions and corporate product advertisements.

공연예술 기관에서의 공연에 대한 흥행 예측은 공연예술 산업 및 기관에서 매우 흥미롭고도 중요한 문제이다. 이를 위해 출연진, 공연장소, 가격 등 정형화된 데이터를 활용한 전통적인 예측방법론, 데이터마이닝 방법론이 제시되어 왔다. 그런데 관객들은 공연안내 포스터에 의하여 관람 의도가 소구되는 경향이 있음에도 불구하고, 포스터 이미지 분석을 통한 흥행 예측은 거의 시도되지 않았다. 그러나 최근 이미지를 통해 판별하는 CNN 계열의 딥러닝 방법이 개발되면서 포스터 분석의 가능성이 열렸다. 이에 본 연구의 목적은 공연 관련 포스터 이미지를 통해 흥행을 예측할 수 있는 딥러닝 방법을 제안하는 것이다. 이를 위해 KOPIS 공연예술 통합전산망에 공개된 포스터 이미지를 학습데이터로 하여 Pure CNN, VGG-16, Inception-v3, ResNet50 등 딥러닝 알고리즘을 통해 예측을 수행하였다. 또한 공연 관련 정형데이터를 활용한 전통적 회귀분석 방법론과의 앙상블을 시도하였다. 그 결과 흥행 예측 정확도 85%를 상회하는 높은 판별 성과를 보였다. 본 연구는 공연예술 분야에서 이미지 정보를 활용하여 흥행을 예측하는 첫 시도이며 본 연구에서 제안한 방법은 연극 외에 영화, 기관 홍보, 기업 제품 광고 등 포스터 기반의 광고를 하는 영역으로도 적용이 가능할 것이다.
