We present 27 problems encountered in automating the translation of movie/TV show subtitles. We categorize each problem in one of the three categories viz. problems directly related to textual translation, problems related to subtitle creation guidelines, and problems due to adaptability of machine translation (MT) eng…

DeepSubQE estimates translation quality for subtitles, improving on existing methods.
problem Hard quality estimation for subtitle translations due to language variations.
method Proposes DeepSubQE, a hybrid network combining semantic and syntactic features.
result DeepSubQE outperforms existing methods by significant margin.
Real-time spell checker adapts to new languages.
problem No real-time, language-adaptable spell checkers for non-English languages.
method Used Wikipedia and subtitles data to generate dictionaries, created noisy channel datasets, compared with industry tools.
result System performs well across 24 languages, outperforming existing tools.
A movie multilayer network model captures narration from script, subtitles, and content.
problem Discovering content and stories in movies using network models.
method Developed a multilayer network model using visual and textual semantic cues.
result Demonstrated the effectiveness of the model on the Star Wars saga.
This paper proposes a method to gain extra supervision via multi-task learning for multi-modal video question answering. Multi-modal video question answering is an important task that aims at the joint understanding of vision and language. However, establishing large scale dataset for multi-modal video question answeri…
Comparison and Adaptation of Automatic Evaluation Metrics for Quality Assessment of Re-Speakingcs.CL
Re-speaking is a mechanism for obtaining high quality subtitles for use in live broadcast and other public events. Because it relies on humans performing the actual re-speaking, the task of estimating the quality of the results is non-trivial. Most organisations rely on humans to perform the actual quality assessment, …
Paper classifies movie genres using multimodal data.
problem Challenging task of multi-label movie genre classification.
method Created dataset from video clips, subtitles, synopses, and posters. Extracted features using various descriptors. Evaluated using different classifiers and late fusion strategy.
result Best F-Score result of 0.628 achieved by combining LSTM on synopses and CNN on movie trailer frames.
RPN unifies various models with a reconciled polynomial network.
problem Unifying diverse models for deep function learning.
method RPN disentangles functions into inner products of expansion and reconciliation functions.
result RPN accurately approximates underlying functions for data distributions.
