Establishment Shot Detection Using Qualitative Motion
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we developed a technique to detect a special kind of shot, namely establishment shot, which is used to introduce a new scene to the audience or remind the audience of a known environment. The detection of establishment shot aids in various middle-level issues such as analyzing the story units of a movie. An establishment shot is usually realized by using camera motions such as panning, tilting or lateral translation. As it possesses similar motion features to those of another kind of shot called object-tracking shot, the two can be easily confused. An object-tracking shot is important for indexing on its own; it keeps the target of interest in the field of view. In this paper, we developed a technique to differentiate these two kinds of shots. The technique developed does not require accurate egomotion estimation, and can handle arbitrary camera movement including zoom as well as multiple independent motions.

A novel motion-based representation for video mining
It is a challenging issue to analyze video content for video mining tasks due to lacking of effective representation of video. As motion is a distinctive feature of video sequence, it is a reasonable and efficient manner to represent video content based on motion. In this paper we proposed a novel motion-based representation for video mining tasks, including a fast dominant motion extraction sc...

In this paper we describe general algorithms that are devised for MPEG-7 automatic annotation of Formula 1 videos, and in particular for camera-car shots detection. We employed a shot detection algorithm suitable for cuts and linear transitions detection, which is able to precisely detect both the transition’s center and length. Statistical features based on MPEG motion compensation vectors are...
متن کاملAbrupt Shot Boundary Detection from Video Sequence Using Motion Direction Histogram Feature
We propose the motion direction histogram (MDH) as a new feature for abrupt shot boundary detection in video sequences. Conventional methods for abrupt shot boundary detection use a threshold difference as a measure of the feature values between consecutive images. It is difficult for such conventional methods t o detect shot boundaries in "busy" scenes, in which intensities change substantiall...
