Abstract

Video scene classification and segmentation are fundamental steps for multimedia retrieval, indexing and browsing. In this paper, a robust scene classification and segmentation approach based on Support Vector Machine (SVM) is presented, which extracts both audio and visual features and analyzes their inter-relations to identify and classify video scenes. Our system works on content from a diverse range of genres by allowing sets of features to be combined and compared automatically without the use of thresholds. With the temporal behaviors of different scene classes, SVM classifier can effectively classify presegmented video clips into one of the predefined scene classes. After identifying scene classes, the scene change boundary can be easily detected. The experimental results show that the proposed system not only improves precision and recall, but also performs better than the other classification systems using the decision tree (DT), K Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) and Neural Network (NN).
