An integrated scheme for automated video abstraction based on unsupervised cluster-validity analysis

Abstract

Key frames and previews are two forms of a video abstract, widely used for various applications in video browsing and retrieval systems. We propose in this paper a novel method for generating these two abstract forms for an arbitrary video sequence. The underlying principle of the proposed method is the removal of the visual-content redundancy among video frames. This is done by first applying multiple partitional clustering to all frames of a video sequence and then selecting the most suitable clustering option(s) using an unsupervised procedure for cluster-validity analysis. In the last step, key frames are selected as centroids of obtained optimal clusters. Video shots, to which key frames belong, are concatenated to form the preview sequence.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
