Video shot detection and condensed representation. a review

Abstract

There is an urgent need to develop techniques that organize video data into more compact forms or extract semantically meaningful information. Such operations can serve as a first step for a number of different data access tasks such as browsing, retrieval, genre classification, and event detection. In this paper, we focus not on the high-level video analysis task themselves but on the common basic techniques that have been developed to facilitate them. These basic tasks are shot boundary detection and condensed video representation
