Abstract

Saliency map can express the position of eye trace, which is a key factor to evaluate the perception quality of video or image. Many saliency detection methods have been proposed based on the human vision system characteristics, but they are time-consuming or with low accuracy. Spectrum residual based algorithm is one typical saliency detection method. It calculates the saliency map of image effectively. The SR method can’t detect the saliency in video sequences due to the intrinsic property difference between image and video.

In this paper, we propose a saliency detection method for video. According to the extensive simulation results, we find amplitude difference and phase difference are very important for saliency map detection. On the basis of the spectrum features of the adjacent frames in video, we take spectrum difference between current test frame and its adjacent frame into account to calculate the saliency map. The proposed algorithm using the video sequences with one eye track point. The results indicate that the method proposed in this paper is more effective than others.
