Abstract

We present a video browsing tool that uses a novel and powerful visualization technique of video motion. The tool provides an interactive navigation index that allows users to quickly and easily recognize content semantics like scenes with fast/slow motion (in general or according to a specific direction), scenes showing still/moving objects in front of a still/moving background, camera pans, or camera zooms. Moreover, the visualization facilitates identification of similar segments in a video. A first user study has shown encouraging results.
