Abstract
Computational modeling of visual saliency has become an important research problem in recent years, with applications in video quality estimation, video compression, object tracking, retargeting, summarization, and so on. While most visual saliency models for dynamic scenes operate on raw video, several models have been developed for use with compressed-domain information such as motion vectors and transform coefficients. This paper presents a comparative study of eleven such models as well as two high-performing pixel-domain saliency models on two eye-tracking datasets using several comparison metrics. The results indicate that highly accurate saliency estimation is possible based only on a partially decoded video bitstream. The strategies that have shown success in compressed-domain saliency modeling are highlighted, and certain challenges are identified as potential avenues for further improvement.
