Abstract

With the increasing use and availability of digital video, shot boundary detection, as a fundamental step in automatic video content analysis and retrieval, has received extensive attention in recent years. But the problem of detecting gradual transitions such as fades, especially in the compressed domain, has yet to be solved. In this paper, a new robust compressed domain fade detection method is proposed, which is based on the luminance weighting factors available at slice level in H.264 compressed video. Simplicity and working directly in the H.264 compressed domain with high precision and recall are the main advantages of the novel algorithm.
