Audio/Visual Recurrences and Decision Trees for Unsupervised TV Program Structuring
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper addresses the problem of unsupervised TV program structuring. Program structuring allows direct and non linear access to the desired parts of a program. Our work addresses the structuring of programs like news, entertainment, shows, magazines... It is based on the detection of audio and visual recurrences. It proposes an effective classification and selection system, based on decision trees, that allows the detection of “separators” among these recurrences. Separators are short audio/visual sequences that delimit the different parts of a program. The decision trees are built based on attributes issued from techniques like applause detection, scenes segmentation, face/speaker detection and clustering. The approach has been evaluated on a 112 hours dataset corresponding to 169 episodes of TV programs.

From Video and Audio Recurrences to Unsupervised Program Structuring
This paper addresses the problem of unsupervised TV programs structuring. Program structuring allows direct and non linear access to the desired parts of a program. Our work addresses the structuring of recurrent TV programs like news, entertainment programs, TV shows, TV magazines... In our previous work [1] we proposed a program structuring method based on the detection of video recurrences. ...
متن کاملA Semantic Image Category for Structuring TV Broadcast Video Streams
TV broadcast video stream consists of various kinds of programs such as sitcoms, news, sports, commercials, weather, etc. In this paper, we propose a semantic image category, named as Program Oriented Informative Images (POIM), to facilitate the segmentation, indexing and retrieval of different programs. The assumption is that most stations tend to insert lead-in/-out video shots for explicitly...
متن کاملUsing Grammar Induction to Discover the Structure of Recurrent TV Programs
Video structuring, in particular applied to TV programs which have strong editing structures, mostly relies on supervised approaches either to retrieve a known structure for which a model has been obtained or to detect key elements from which a known structure is inferred. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised approach to recurrent TV program structuring, exploiting the repetitiveness of ke...
متن کاملContent-Based Discovery of Multiple Structures from Episodes of Recurrent TV Programs Based on Grammatical Inference
TV program structuring is essential for program indexing and retrieval. Practically, various types of programs lead to a diversity of program structures. In addition, several episodes of a recurrent program might exhibit different structures. Previous work mostly relies on supervised approaches by adopting prior knowledge about program structures. In this paper, we address the problem of unsupe...
متن کاملContent-based inference of structural grammar for recurrent TV programs from a collection of episodes. (Inférence de la grammaire structurelle d'une émission TV récurrente à partir du contenu)
TV program structuring raised as a major theme in the last decade for the task of high quality indexing of multimedia content. Studying program structuring focuses on finding key instants of events of interest, understanding the underlying structures of programs. In earlier literature, some studies of TV program structuring addressed the problem of event detection or scene segmentation, which i...
