| 要約: | Advances in digital image processing lead to ways of representing images and image-collections that approach the linguistic properties of concision and summary. However, important logical differences remain. Indexing is a form of summary representation with problematic application to visual material. "Salient stills " and "film strips " as representations of video clips have been suggested as solutions.
