A simplified approach to rushes summarization

Published: 31 October 2008 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper we describe methods for video summarization in the context of the TRECVID 2008 BBC Rushes Summarization task. Color, motion, and audio features are used to segment, filter, and cluster the video. We experiment with varying the segment similarity measure to improve the joint clustering of segments with and without camera motion. Compared to our previous effort for TRECVID 2007 we have reduced the complexity of the summarization process as well as the visual complexity of the summaries themselves. We find our objective (inclusion) performance to be competitive with systems exhibiting similar subjective performance.
