Abstract

This paper presents how cross-media correlation facilitates summarization of photos and videos captured in journeys. Correlation between photos and videos comes from similar content captured in the same temporal order. We transform photos and videos into sequences of visual word histograms, and adopt approximate sequence matching to find correlation. To summarize photos and videos, we propose that the characteristics of correlated photos can be utilized in selecting important video segments into video summaries, and on the other hand, the characteristics of correlated video segments can be utilized in selecting important photos. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed summarization methods well take advantage of the correlation.
