The NAFI system was
developed as part of the TIWO project by Yan Xu. The system is intended to support research
into structuring film data for hypervideo browsing. Researchers can enter data about story structures, e.g. plot
units, in order to structure films with hypervideo links. When users
navigate films following the hypervideo links, the system records their actions
for subsequent analysis by the researchers.
You are welcome to use the
NAFI system for research purposes.

NAFI executable, feedback and questions to:
