Research Content

The research behind the goal of teaching a robot with videos to pass the VTT is based on a 5 year plan. The stepping stone for the base start of the research is based Children’s Story Cartoons for they come in great amounts and with a great amount of advantages. They are of multimodal character, as they provide both vision and language to be processed, however, they also tend to follow simple grammar rules and explicit story lines. Furthermore, a cartoon’s advantage can be their simplistic image processing characeristic, their pseudo-realness and their educational content. A cartoon based Question and Answer database may be created to train the system until it may reach the further destinations of VTT Demonstration, TV Drama Learning and VTT Competition.
