Abstract

Video storyboard is a common way to render the summarized view of video data. Video is first segmented and a representative frame from each of the segmented units are ordered chronologically to form the storyboard. The representative frames also can be organized to form Table of Content(ToC). But size of such storyboard/ToC may be prohibitive in the applications where the views are to be transmitted over a limited bandwidth. In this work, we propose a spanning tree based novel method to select a subset of representative frames of specific size. It is also shown that the proposed method is powerful enough that it can generate almost similar storyboard from a set of equi-spaced samples (of frames) from the video stream without explicit segmentation or shot detection.
