Abstract

In this paper, we propose a method for dynamic integration of TV-program content and related Web content and demonstrate our prototype system called WebTelop. The primary source of information in WebTelop is the TV-program content. Web pages related to the TV-program content are retrieved automatically in real time and are used to augment the TV-program content in the form of captions. Our method enables: (1) real time integration of TV-program content with Web-page content, (2) information retrieval for TVprogram content augmentation based on the topic structures of the TV programs and Web pages, and (3) the use of a virtual character agent to help users navigate through the related Web pages of the TV programs.
