Automatic Tour Video Summarization Focusing on Scene Change for Advance Touristic Experience

摘要

In this paper, we propose a novel time-lapse based video summarization method without substantial loss of information important for viewers to plan a tour route. In the proposed method, we focus on scene changes in the video. We extract scenes with a certain level of changes compared to previous scenes as important (slowly played back) in the summarized video, while other scenes are fast forwarded. To evaluate the effectiveness of our proposed method, comparing the video summarized with our method and that summarized manually (by voting for necessary/unnecessary scenes), our method identified the important scenes with an F-measure of 62.22%.
