| Abstract |
We demonstrate how the Tycoon framework can be put to practice with the Anvil tool in a concrete case study. Tycoon offers a coding scheme and analysis metrics for multimodal communication scenarios. Anvil is a generic, extensible and ergonomically designed annotation tool for videos. In this paper, we describe the Anvil tool, the Tycoon scheme/metrics, and their implementation in Anvil for a video sample. A new Anvil feature, motivated by the Tycoon scheme, is presented: non-temporal annotation objects - an important concept, we argue, of general interest. We also outline future plans for automatizing Tycoon metrics computation using Anvil plug-ins. |
