The objective of this study was to analyse the differences in tactical principles, decision-making and execution of the return shot and drop shot of squash players at different levels of proficiency. The sample was composed of 80 players, divided into four levels of expertise (first national category, second national category, autonomous regional level and provincial level). The Squash Performa...

Color moments are measures that can be used to differentiate images based on their color. Once computed, these moments provide a measure for color similarity between images. This color similarity can become a measure of finding difference between consecutive frames in a video. Finding the difference between temporally arranged frames in video is one of the issues in shot boundary detection whic...

Shot boundary and classification is the first and most important step for further analysis of video content. Shot transitions include abrupt changes and gradual changes. A rapid and robust method for shot boundary detection and classification in MPEG compressed sequences is proposed in this paper. We firstly only decode I frames partly in video sequences to generate DC images and then calculate...

In order to image complex geological structures, seismic surveys acquire an increasingly large amount of data. While the resulting data sets enable higher-resolution images of the subsurface, they also contain redundant information and require large computational resources for processing. One approach for mitigating this trend is blended imaging, which combines the original shot records into a ...

This is a review of shot noise, the time-dependent fluctuations in the electrical current due to the discreteness of the electron charge, in small conductors. The shot-noise power can be smaller than that of a Poisson process as a result of correlations in the electron transmission imposed by the Pauli principle. This suppression takes on simple universal values in a symmetric double-barrier ju...

1、Overview This is the first TRECVID participation for HuaZhong University of Science and Technology . we participated in the Shot Boundary Detection(SBD). In the paper, we will present our approaches for SBD . Our main focus was extracting new features based on the luminance to represent the visual content , and combine the traditional method and sliding windows[7] to build our algorithm. In o...

Detection of shot boundary is the key step for identification of visual content of the video data. In this paper we propose a method of shot boundary detection with a novel logic of frame comparison. In our method, current frame of the video data is compared with the shifted version of the previous frame of that video and by using suitable threshold, shot boundary is declared. The experimental ...
