Information Semiotics Approach on TV analysis and Hypermedia Encylopedia

本研究旨在通过对电视分析的理论探索，将信息符号学的知识系统化，并构建一个名为“电视分析知识树”的超媒体百科全书系统，这是一种探索人类活动与计算机处理过程相结合的符号学过程（符号学）的新途径。本研究课题由三个部分组成。1在理论部分，利用基于主题地图技术的知识管理系统“智之礼宾“，在东京大学内部网上实现了信息符号学，特别是电视符号学的关键概念网络。目前，东京大学的任何服务器都可以访问该网络。2在系统开发部，我们完成了“电视分析知识树"的全部设计。我们与巴黎蓬皮杜中心的IRI合作开发了一种方法，使用多媒体内容注释工具Lignes de Temps应用程序来分析电视节目。3我们与INA和NHK合作，构思了一种新的知识树档案研究方法。

This research project aims to systematize the knowledge of Information Semiotics by theoretical exploration on TV analysis and by construction of a hypermedia encyclopedia system named "The Tree of Knowledge for TV analysis".This is a new type of approach to explore a semiotic process (Semiosis) taking place on the interface of human activities with computer processing process. Our research project consists of three divisions.1 In theoretical division, we implemented a key-concepts network of Information Semiotics, in particular, of TV semiotics, on intranet of the Univ. of Tokyo, utilizing the knowledge management system " Chi no concierge " based on topic map technology. Nowadays this network can be accessed from any server of the Univ. of Tokyo.2 In system development division, we finished all the design of the "Tree of Knowledge for TV analysis. And we developed in collaboration with IRI the Centre Pompidou in Paris a method for using the application Lignes de Temps, annotation tool for multimedia content, to analyze TV program.3 We conceived a new approach to the Archive studies with the Tree of Knowledge, in collaboration with INA and NHK.
