The Manchu language holds historical significance, but a complete dataset of Manchu script letters for training optical character recognition machine-learning models is currently unavailable. Therefore, this paper describes the process of creating a robust dataset of extracted Manchu script letters. Rather than performing automatic letter segmentation based on whitespace or the thickness of the central word stem, an image of the Manchu script was manually inspected, and one copy of the desired letter was selected as a region of interest. This selected region of interest was used as a template to match all other occurrences of the same letter within the Manchu script image. Although the dataset in this study contained only 4,000 images of five Manchu script letters, these letters were collected from twenty-eight writing styles. A full dataset of Manchu letters is expected to be obtained through this process. The collected dataset was normalized and trained using a simple convolutional neural network to verify its effectiveness.

The mainstream of cinema animated film in today's world is the animated film produced by film companies such as Disney, DreamWorks, and 20th Century Fox. These animated films are influenced by Hollywood blockbusters, high cost, and big-budget, which have brought a gorgeous and splendid audio-visual feast to the global audience. DreamWorks Studios founded in 1994 has become noted in just over ten years. It has produced many high-quality animated works which are well-known all over the world. This achievement is no doubt inseparable from its superior external animation industry environment, and benefited from the American animation industry which commercially operated for almost 100 years. However, in addition to these external environmental factors, DreamWorks' achievements have also come from the extraordinary and superior creation of the animated film scripts, strong narrative script ensures the logic and appeal of animated films. This article takes Kung Fu Panda series, Shrek series, The Prince of Egypt, The Croods, Chicken Run, Megamind and other representative films produced by DreamWorks as key analysis object, using Jean Baudrillard's simulation and imaging theory, Syd Field's screenwriting skills, and Hegel's aesthetic point of view, explores the Creative Style of DreamWorks' Animated Film Script which contains the following four aspects. The script is exaggerated and novel, and the subject matter is rich and targeted. The script creation is very imaginative and can fully express the visual beauty. The structure of the story is well controlled, the space comes from reality but full of imagination. The characters have distinctive personality and the dialogue is moderated but forceful.

The popularity of cloud computing has led to the emergence of various types of cloud services, and the hybrid cloud, a deployment model that integrates public cloud and private cloud and offset their shortcomings, is in the spotlight recently. However, the complexity of different clouds integration and the lack of related integration solutions have delayed the adoption of hybrid cloud and cloud strategy by companies and organizations. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a cloud integration mechanism to solve the integration complexity problem. The cloud integration mechanism proposed in this paper consists of integration script that solves the cloud integration by the script based on the hybrid cloud function, a process of creating and executing it, and a script creation model applying the software design pattern. By integrating the various cloud services, we can quickly generate scripts that meet the user's needs. It is expected that the introduction of hybrid cloud and the acquisition of cloud strategy can be accelerated through this proposed integration mechanism.

For virtual education, the multimodal learning environment with haptic feedback, termed 'immersive textbook', is necessary to enhance the learning effectiveness. However, the learning contents for immersive textbook are not widely available due to the constraints in creation and playback environments. To address this problem, we propose a framework for producing and displaying the multimodal contents for immersive textbook. Our framework provides an XML-based meta-language to produce the multimodal learning contents in the form of intuitive script. Thus it can help the user, without any prior knowledge of multimodal interactions, produce his or her own learning contents. The contents are then interpreted by script engine and delivered to the user by visual and haptic rendering loops. Also we implemented a prototype based on the aforementioned proposals and performed user evaluation to verify the validity of our framework.

We have been studying the next generation of video creation solution based on TVML (TV program Making Language) technology. TVML is a well-known scripting language for computer animation and a TVML Player interprets the script to create video content using real-time 3DCG and synthesized voices. TVML has a long history proposed back in 1996 by NHK, however, the only available Player has been the one made by NHK for years. We have developed a new TVML Player from scratch and named it T2V (Text-To-Vision) Player. Due to the development from scratch, the code is compact, light and fast, and extendable and portable. Moreover, the new T2V Player performs not only a playback of TVML script but also a Text-To-Vision conversion from input written in XML format or just a mere plane text to videos by using 'Text-filter' that can be added as a plug-in of the Player. We plan to make it public as freeware from early 2009 in order to stimulate User-Generated-Content and a various kinds of services running on the Internet and media industry. We think that our T2V Player would be a key technology for upcoming new movement.

For the activation and wide distribution of User Created Contents (UCC) sites have diversified user-created possibilities. Among these contents, User Created Game (UCG) sites are places where users can create and share their game contents with others. The method of UCG development can be classified into two categories according to the uses' level of professionalism. First, the method of using the authoring tools is suggested for those unfamiliar with the development or creation of contents. Although the authoring tool is easy to use, there are many functional limitations. Second, development using program languages is suggested for trained advanced users but has the limitation of a prolonged development period. This paper proposes a new method, generating the script which will expand the current functional limitations entailed behind the authoring tools used by first time and less trained users. In order to verify the proposed method in a real UCG development environment, a framework encompassing GUI, script generating function and program source generating function were constructed.

Currently, the package tools and software development kits of Microsoft's Windows Media Technology provides users an environment to write, distribute and play multimedia contents. However, it is very difficult for common users to create a media streaming content using the Windows Media technology, because of its technical hardship. Therefore, we developed an easy-to-use authoring tool for multimedia streaming content which can be used in the Windows Media Technology environment. Our authoring tool is based on the web page templates by which HTML codes can be generated automatically. Using the existing streaming media authoring tool provided by the Microsoft, users have to code the temporal markers and the event script commands directly to the ASF(Advanced Systems Format) files or ASX (ASF Stream Redirector) format files. We developed an easy-to-use interface for insetting temporal markers and the event script commands to the ASF files by simple mouse clicking and dragging to minimize the effort of users for creating multimedia streaming content. In addition, we implemented an ASX file creation wizard that allows users to create ASX format file without coding ASX tags. We also implemented various web page templates where the ASF files and the ASX files can be embedded by just clicking the corresponding templates. The target web pages can be automatically generated from those templates and previewed directly on the web browser at the time of creation.

This study proposes the metaverse content production pipeline using ZEPETO World, one of the representative metaverse platforms in Korea. Based on the Unity 3D engine, the ZEPETO world is configured using the ZEPETO template, and the core functions of the metaverse content that enable multi-user participation such as logic, interaction, and property control are implemented through the ZEPETO script. This study utilizes the basic functions such as properties, events, and components of the ZEPETO script as well as the ZEPETO player which includes avatar loading, character movement, and camera control functions. In addition, based on ZEPETO's properties such as World Multiplayer and Client Starter, it summarizes the core synchronization process required for multiplay metaverse content production, such as object transformation, dynamic object creation, property addition, and real-time property control. Based on this, we check the proposed production pipeline by directly producing multiplay metaverse content using ZEPETO World.
