Abstract

Driven by a high demand for user-centred video interfaces and recent advances in scalable video coding technology, this work introduces a novel framework for video browsing by utilising inherently hierarchical compressed-domain features of scalable video and ecient dynamic video summarisation. This approach enables instant adaptability of generated video summaries to user requirements, available channel bandwidth as well as display size. By utilising compressed domain features an ecient hierarchical analysis of motion activity at dierent layers of complexity is achieved. Exploiting a contour evolution algorithm, a scale space of temporal video descriptors is generated, enabling dynamic video summarisation in real-time. Given the spatial resources of terminal display and generated video summary, the nal browsing layout is generated utilising an unsupervised robust spectral clus- tering technique and a fast discrete optimisation algorithm. Results show excellent scalability of the video browsing interface and good algorithm efficiency.
