ABSTRACT:
A system for generating a scene description from a set of words includes modules that perform the following functions: performing a linguistic analysis on a set of words to generate a structure representation of semantic relationships between words within the set of words, converting the structure to a set of description elements representative of objects to be depicted in a scene and relationships between objects, depicting a spatial relationship by using at least one spatial tag of an associated one or more of the object, and assigning a set of depictors to each of the description elements. Each depictor in the set of depictors may include a reference to an object to be modified, parameters used in modifying the object and a procedure for modifying the object. The system may also include a module that generates the same description by execution of the procedure for the modification of the objects.
