New methods for detecting shot boundaries in video sequences and for extracting key
frames using metrics based on information theory are proposed. The method for shot …

In today's digital era, there are large volumes of long-duration videos resulting from movies,
documentaries, sports and surveillance cameras floating over internet and video databases …

Video summarization, aimed at reducing the amount of data that must be examined in order
to retrieve the information desired from information in a video, is an essential task in video …

The performance of shot detection methods in video sequences can be improved by the use
of a threshold that adapts itself to the sequence statistics. In this paper we present some new …

Video temporal segmentation is normally the first and important step for content-based video
applications. Many features including the pixel difference, colour histogram, motion, and …

We describe a key-frame extraction technique based on the intuition that the higher the
motion the more the number of key-frames required for summarization. We verify …

A new algorithm for gradual shot boundary detection is proposed in this paper. The
proposed algorithm is based on the fact that most of gradual curves can be characterized by …

A new method for detecting shot boundaries in video sequences using singular value
decomposition (SVD) is proposed. The method relies on performing singular value …

Various methods of automatic shot boundary detection have been proposed and claimed to
perform reliably. Detection of edits is fundamental to any kind of video analysis. It segments …

ABSTRACT A popular method for producing video summaries is to use cut detection to
select representative key-frames for shots in a movie. The key-thrnes are then used as the …
