Key Object-based Static Video Summarization

摘要

In this paper, we present a system for object-based video summarization facilitated by an efficient video object segmentation system. We eliminate the redundancy not only from spatial and temporal domain, but also from content domain. First, we detect shot boundaries and extract video objects by a 3D graph-based algorithm. Once the objects are obtained, the shape of the objects need to be represented. The key objects are extracted in a global manner by K-means clustering of shapes. Experimental results on the proposed object-based scheme combined with efficient video object segmentation show desirable summarization.
