Abstract

This paper reports on a user-centered evaluation of visual video summaries. We evaluated four types of summaries (fastforward, user-controlled fastforward, scene clips and storyboard) with a set of existing performance and satisfaction measures. We further conducted a repertory grid elicitation with our participants gathering evaluation constructs related to both video summary content and controls. Results showed a lack of correlation between performance and satisfaction measures. User-supplied evaluation constructs were shown to span both the performance and satisfaction dimensions of the video summary evaluation space. Most constructs achieved moderate to good inter-rater agreement in a consequent survey.
