Comprehensive Tool for Generation and Compatibility Management of Subtitles for English Language Videos

摘要

Video is the most powerful medium in the propagation of information and the use of subtitles in representing the textual transcript of dialogues of a video is a customary routine. Though it being a very effective means of communication, has still some leftover challenges. The deaf and hearing impaired people & the non-native language speakers make use of subtitles to read and understand the dialogue. There are various types of software designed to generate the subtitles manually, but the dearth of those automating the process, is often felt. The intended software system will produce automatic subtitles via a three staged process: Audio extraction, Speech Recognition and Synchronization of subtitles. The realm of this paper is to portray the stage wise mechanism of subtitle generation and describing of various other features provided by the software.
