One important theme in captioning is whether the implementation of captions in individual sign language interpreter videos can positively affect viewers' comprehension when compared with sign language interpreter videos without captions. In our study, an experiment was conducted using four video clips with information about everyday events. Fifty-one deaf and hard of hearing sign language users...

We submitted one run for THUMOS 2014 action recognition task. The system used improved dense trajectory features and fisher vector coding. Since testing videos are temporally untrimmed, we applied a sliding window of 100 frames for both training and testing videos. We utilized the background videos by iteratively training SVM classifiers and selecting hard negative samples. Video-level scores w...

For the analysis of videos these videos should be divided into different shots, by determining the shot boundaries[12]. This division of the videos is termed as Video shot-boundary detection (VSBD), which is useful for various different purposes like editing, indexing, mixing, etc[5]. This detection ...

This paper presents an exploratory study of jihadi extremist groups’ videos using content analysis and a multimedia coding tool to explore the types of videos, groups’ modus operandi, and production features. The videos convey messages powerful enough to mobilize members, sympathizers, and even new recruits to launch attacks that will once again be captured and disseminated via the Internet. Th...

This paper presents how cross-media correlation facilitates summarization of photos and videos captured in journeys. Correlation between photos and videos comes from similar content captured in the same temporal order. We transform photos and videos into sequences of visual word histograms, and adopt approximate sequence matching to find correlation. To summarize photos and videos, we propose t...

The author examined the top 20 viral videos as determined by Time Magazine. Each video’s content was recorded for analysis of its main features. Eventually nine factors were deemed “important determinants” for a viral video: title length, run-time, laughter, element of surprise, element of irony, minority presence, music quality, youth presence and talent. This research is important because an ...
