Abstract: In this paper, a shot boundary detection method is presented using octagon square search pattern. The color, edge, motion and texture features of each frame are extracted and used in shot boundary detection. The motion feature is extracted using octagon square search pattern. Then, the transition detection method is capable of detecting the shot or non-shot boundaries in the video using the feature weight values. Experimental results are evaluated in TRECVID video test set containing various types of shot transition with lighting effects, object and camera movement within the shots. Further, this paper compares the experimental results of the proposed method with existing methods. It shows that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-art methods for shot boundary detection.
Abstract: Shot boundary detection is a fundamental step for the organization of large video data. In this paper, we propose a new method for video gradual shots detection and classification, using advantages of fractal analysis and AIS-based classifier. Proposed features are “vertical intercept" and “fractal dimension" of each frame of videos which are computed using Fourier transform coefficients. We also used a classifier based on Clonal Selection Algorithm. We have carried out our solution and assessed it according to the TRECVID2006 benchmark dataset.
Abstract: A number of automated shot-change detection
methods for indexing a video sequence to facilitate browsing and
retrieval have been proposed in recent years. This paper emphasizes
on the simulation of video shot boundary detection using one of the
methods of the color histogram wherein scaling of the histogram
metrics is an added feature. The difference between the histograms of
two consecutive frames is evaluated resulting in the metrics. Further
scaling of the metrics is performed to avoid ambiguity and to enable
the choice of apt threshold for any type of videos which involves
minor error due to flashlight, camera motion, etc. Two sample videos
are used here with resolution of 352 X 240 pixels using color
histogram approach in the uncompressed media. An attempt is made
for the retrieval of color video. The simulation is performed for the
abrupt change in video which yields 90% recall and precision value.
