Our two biggest challenges were the inconsistent format of the movie scripts and the multiway classif...

As the content industry develops, demand for movie is increasing. Accordingly, actively developing super-personalized recommendation systems that match consumers’ tastes. In this paper, we study automatic generation of tags to improve system. We extracted background sounds from trailer videos, analyzed using STFT (Short-Time Fourier transform) and major audio attribute features, created a genre...
