AMOS: An Active System for MPEG-4 Video Object Segmentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Object segmentation and tracking is a fundamental step for many digital video applications. In this paper, we present an active system (AMOS) which combines low level automatic region segmentation with an active method for defining and tracking high-level semantic video objects. The system contains two stages: an initial object segmentation stage where user input in the starting frame is used to create a semantic object; and an object tracking stage where underlying regions of the semantic object are tracked and grouped through successive frames. Experiments with different types of videos show very good performance.

متن کاملCircular Viterbi based adaptive system for automatic video object segmentation
Many future video standards such as MPEG-4 are shifting focus from compression to content; Video Object Segmentation is the key technology required by these standards. Unlike still images, motion in video can be used to discriminate between objects. We present an automatic video single object segmentation system whose core is the adaptive version of the Circular Viterbi algorithm. The Circular ...
متن کاملAn Integrated Approach for Content-Based Video Object Segmentation and Retrieval Part I: Semantic Video Object Segmentation and Tracking
Object-based video and audio data representations, such as MPEG-4, enable unprecedented functionalities of content access and manipulation. In fulfilling the potential, video object segmentation and content-based search techniques remain as two challenging tasks. In this twopart paper, we present an integrated approach for semantic video object segmentation and retrieval. In the first part, we ...
