TLDR
In this paper, a special editing feature is provided for retrieving and redisplaying only those pictures that were not initially assigned to a category, since these pictures are not intermixed with those already assigned to categories, they are quickly retrieved and conveniently assigned, if desired, to one or more of the subject-matter categories.Abstract:
In editing video still pictures, the pictures are reproduced from a video disk and displayed one by one in combination with subject-matter categories into which they may be grouped. The list of categories appears as a descriptive overlay on each picture being evaluated. Ordinarily, some pictures are assigned to categories and some are skipped. It often happens that it is necessary to reevaluate the pictures that were skipped during the initial stage of evaluation. To encourage such a reevaluation, a special editing feature is provided for retrieving and redisplaying only those pictures that were not initially assigned to a category. Since these pictures are not intermixed with those already assigned to categories, they are quickly retrieved and conveniently assigned, if desired, to one or more of the subject-matter categories.read more
