Currently on the school education site, various multimedia contents are used to effectively deliver knowledge to the students and increase interest in class. The majority of the multimedia contents currently used in classes are composed of visual and auditory information. This paper intends to maximize actuality and immersion in the content by adding olfactory information to the existing visual and auditory data. Tangible contents were developed based on the details of aromatic plants learned in the fifth grade of elementary school. The shape and explanation of the aromatic plants are displayed with visual and auditory information, and an aroma spraying application is used to allow the students to smell the aromatic plants. After conducting the class using the developed contents, the students' satisfaction of the class, as well as their overall academic understanding, were investigated. Upon doing so, it was discovered that the students' academic understanding and satisfaction increased in comparison to classes comprised of only visual and auditory contents.

It is required for today's video contents to interact with a viewer in order to provide more personalized experience to viewer(s) than before. In order to do so by providing friendly experience to a viewer from video contents' systemic perspective, understanding and analyzing the situation of the viewer have to be preferentially considered. For this purpose, it is effective to analyze the situation of a viewer by understanding the state of the viewer based on the viewer' s behavior(s) in the process of watching the video contents, and classifying the behavior(s) into the viewer's emotion and state during the flow. The term 'Flow-emotion-state' presented in this study is the state of the viewer to be assumed based on the emotions that occur subsequently in relation to the target video content in a situation which the viewer of the video content is already engaged in the viewing behavior. This Flow-emotion-state of a viewer can be expected to be utilized to identify characteristics of the viewer's Flow-situation by observing and analyzing the gesture and the facial expression that serve as the input modality of the viewer to the video content.

With the availability of real-time educational data collection and analysis techniques, the education paradigm is shifting from educator-centric to data-driven lectures. However, most offline and online education frameworks collect students' feedback from question-answering data that can summarize their understanding but requires instructor's attention when students need additional help during lectures. This paper proposes a content restructure recommendation framework based on collected student feedback. We list the types of student feedback and implement a web-based framework that collects both implicit and explicit feedback for content restructuring. With a case study of four-week lectures with 50 students, we analyze the pattern of student feedback and quantitatively validate the effect of the proposed content restructuring measured by the level of student engagement.

Today, the media environment has changed dramatically with the development of Internet transmission technology, computer performance, and various media production technologies. In particular, video content is widely used every day through mobile device or computer connected to the Internet. In addition, the ability to produce video content today is more important than ever, as the use of video content is also increasing in the area of information delivery and communication over the Internet. In this study, it was developed a liberal education curriculum in universities for the production of video content. The developed curriculum was composed of a combination of an online curriculum for theory and an offline curriculum for practicum. In the online curriculum, a 54 DOOR contents were developed to allow students to learn the theoretical knowledge and basic making techniques related to the production of video content. In an offline 15-week practicum curriculum, it covered the practical training contents of video content production that should be acquired every week. This developed liberal education curriculum aims to give non-major students in universities the opportunity to learn the technology of producing video content and to foster the ability to communicate in the media environment by using the video content produced.

The Multimedia Contents, such like movies, internet and so on, are the most effective teaching means for generation c[content] learners who are accustomed to the multimedia environment. First, the multimedia contents become appropriate materials in that they help the learners understand the culture and lifestyle of its country through practical and vivid information. Second, they are useful leaning tools for the students who prefer visual media to improve interest and understanding. Third, as students have the time for developing their own contents based on given information, they understand the contents better and also have a indirect learning experience of culture. This means that the learning using multimedia contents has an influence on students' academic achievement. As a result, it is desirable for the application and development of multimedia contents to be suggested as an effective teaching method for foreign culture.

Recently multimedia has been formed, provided, and shared enough not to compare with the past, due to the proliferation of Internet and the development of hardware relating to multimedia. Accordingly to internationally give a proper expression to metadata of multimedia, the standard of MPEG-7 has been established, and researches for image search among various data of multimedia using MPEG-7 are going on. Thus there are meaning-based search. In the former there is a merit that search speed is fast, but technology and accuracy by technical knowledge on the image. In the latter the accuracy of search is decreasing because of not understanding the meaning about image and the internet of users. In this study to solve these problems a search system has been designed by combining the two methods. Also the search and manage image data by handheld devices such as portable PDA or smart phone, a system. Once this is used, multimedia data can be efficiently searched and utilized by handheld devices.

Automatic understanding of contents in document image is a very hard problem due to involvement with mathematically challenging problems originated mainly from the over-determined system induced by document segmentation process. In both academic and industrial areas, there have been incessant and various efforts to improve core parts of content retrieval technologies by the means of separating out segmentation related issues using semi-structured document, e.g., invoice,. In this paper we proposed classification models for text lines on invoice document in which text lines were clustered into the five categories in accordance with their contents: purchase order header, invoice header, summary header, surcharge header, purchase items. Our investigation was concentrated on the performance of machine learning based models in aspect of linear-discriminant-analysis (LDA) and non-LDA (logic based). In the group of LDA, na$\"{\i}$ve baysian, k-nearest neighbor, and SVM were used, in the group of non LDA, decision tree, random forest, and boost were used. We described the details of feature vector construction and the selection processes of the model and the parameter including training and validation. We also presented the experimental results of comparison on training/classification error levels for the models employed.

In recent days, research activities on multimedia services mainly focus on the multiplexing system with timing synchromization for media components, such as video, audio and text. The MPEG-4 standard emphasizes object-based coding which includes analysis and understanding of the Image content. Since in MPEG-4 we can define objects and encode them independently, we can manipulate and display each object for different applications. This feature of MPEG-4 is also vero useful for multimedia services, such as video streaming cia different network channels, digital versatile disc, internet TV, video E-mail, and so on. In this Paper, we implement a multimedia streaming system which is compliant with the MPEG-4 system and the MP4 file format.

The purposed of this research is to develop multimedia content usage analysis service platform. In the proposed platform, the content gazing behaviors of the users are monitored and profiled in real-time and a set of quantifiable metrics is provided. These metrics are used to determine the closeness of the users' behavior from the intent set by the provider. Based on the evaluation, it is possible to assess the effectiveness of the contents themselves as well. The content usage assessment is accomplished by utilizing the intention flow and the intent weight, which are embedded into the content by the content provider. Proposed methodology can be effectively applied and used in various application domains such as in education and in commercial advertisements.
