MPEG으로 압축된 비디오에서 최소 복호화에 의한 빠른 장면전환검출 알고리듬

Abstract

A scene change detection which involves finding a cut between two consecutive shots is an important step for video indexing and retrieval. This paper proposes an algorithm for fast and accurate detection of abrupt scene changes in an MPEG compressed domain with minimal decoding requirements arid computational effort. The proposed method compares two successive DC images of I-frames for finding the GOP (group of picture) which contain a scene change and uses macroblock-coded type information contained in B-frames to detect the exact frame where the scene change occurred. The experiment results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has better detection performance, such as precision and recall rate, than the existing method using all DC images. The algorithm has the advantage of speed, simplicity and accuracy. In addition, it requires less amount of storage.
