What Gets Lost When Memory Becomes Media? Evaluating AI-Generated Oral History Visualization

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.24756v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: What gets lost when memory becomes media? Diaspora oral-history interviews require a double transformation; first-person recollection to third-person scene, present interview room to past time and place. When generative AI performs this transformation, no agreed criteria for success exist. We derive success conditions from oral-history theory, design 15 metrics around three failure modes, and compare a Multi-Agent Scene-decomposition pipeline (MAS) with a Single Summarization Pipeline (SSP) across 82 interviews from diaspora communities, spanning from oral interviews to 6-image sequences. Scene-planning and narrative preservation conflict in the majority of cases, and the narrative-structure strength of the source testimony is the primary p
