Abstract

We describe novel methods to automatically augment content into video highlights detected from soccer and tennis video. First, we extract generic and domain-specific features from the video to isolate key audio-visual events that we have empirically found to correlate well with the ground-truth highlights. Next, based on a set of heuristics-driven rules to minimize view disruption, spatial regions in the image frames of these video highlight segments are segmented for content augmentation. Preliminary trials from subjective viewing indicate a high level of acceptance for the content insertions.
