Multimodal documents combining language and graphs are wide-spread in print media as well as in electronic media. One of the most important tasks to be solved in comprehending graph-text combinations is construction of causal chains among the meaning entities provided by modalities. In this study we focus on the role of annotation position and shape of graph lines in simple line graphs on causal attributions concerning the event presented by the annotation and the processes (i.e. increases and decreases) and states (no-changes) in the domain value of the graphs presented by the process-lines and state-lines. Based on the experimental investigation of readers' inferences under different conditions, guidelines for the design of multimodal documents including text and statistical information graphics are suggested. One suggestion is that the position and the number of verbal annotations should be selected appropriately, another is that the graph line smoothing should be done cautiously.

Localization and recognition of text in digital media
Saracoğlu, Ahmet; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
Textual information within digital media can be used in many areas such as, indexing and structuring of media databases, in the aid of visually impaired, translation of foreign signs and many more. This said, mainly text can be separated into two categories in digital media as, overlay-text and scene-text. In this thesis localization and recognition of video text regardless of its category in digital media is investigated. As a necessary first step, framework of a complete system is discussed. Next, a compa...
Investigation of haptic line graph comprehension through co production of gesture and language
Deniz, Ozan; Mehmetcan, Fal; Acartürk, Cengiz (null; 2013-06-30)
In communication settings, statistical graphs accompany language by providing visual access to various aspects of domain entities, such as conveying information about trends. A similar and comparable means for providing perceptual access is to provide haptic graphs for blind people. In this study, we present the results of an experimental study that aimed to investigate visual line graphs and haptic line graphs in time domain by means of gesture production as an indicator of event conceptualization. The par...
Exploiting information extraction techniques for automatic semantic annotation and retrieval of news videos in Turkish
Küçük, Dilek; Yazıcı, Adnan; Department of Computer Engineering (2011)
Information extraction (IE) is known to be an effective technique for automatic semantic indexing of news texts. In this study, we propose a text-based fully automated system for the semantic annotation and retrieval of news videos in Turkish which exploits several IE techniques on the video texts. The IE techniques employed by the system include named entity recognition, automatic hyperlinking, person entity extraction with coreference resolution, and event extraction. The system utilizes the outputs of th...
On reciprocal improvement in multimodal generation Co-reference by text and information graphics
Chrıstopher, Habel; Acartürk, Cengiz (2007-01-31)
In this paper, we argue that in the production of complex documents combining text and information graphics, improvement—seen as a specific revision process—has to be considered as an independent module in a multi-pass architecture. Inside improvement, graph comprehension and text comprehension modules interact in building up a common content representation based on a conceptual inventory specified via topological and geometrical concepts. During concurrent comprehension the reciprocal improvement module in...
Fuzzy spatial data cube construction and its use in association rule mining
Işık, Narin; Yazıcı, Adnan; Department of Computer Engineering (2005)
The popularity of spatial databases increases since the amount of the spatial data that need to be handled has increased by the use of digital maps, images from satellites, video cameras, medical equipment, sensor networks, etc. Spatial data are difficult to examine and extract interesting knowledge; hence, applications that assist decision-making about spatial data like weather forecasting, traffic supervision, mobile communication, etc. have been introduced. In this thesis, more natural and precise knowle...
