Method and system for automatically generating explainer videos from text-based data source

A method for automatically generating explainer videos from a text-based data source, the method comprising:

• identifying, by a processor, a plurality of different components of an input document based on a visual analysis of the input document;
• determining, by the processor, a reading order of information present in the input document based on the identification of the plurality of different components and the visual analysis of the input document;
• executing, by the processor, a structured information extraction comprising extraction of a text-based component and an image-based component based on the identification of the reading order and the identification of the plurality of different components;
• identifying, by the processor, an amount of information displayable per screen on a display screen and a time parameter associated with the amount of information displayable per screen, based on content extracted through the structured information extraction;
• selecting, by the processor, a first layout from a set of predefined layouts based on the amount of the information identified to be displayable per screen and the time parameter;
• and
• generating, by the processor, an explainer video for at least one topic in the input document based on the selected first layout, the amount of information displayable per screen, and the time parameter.
