Abstract

Video analysis can be used in the context of a wide variety of applications and therefore a multiplicity of techniques has been proposed in the literature. Each of those techniques is usually devoted to solving a specific part of the complete analysis problem, unless the problem is rather simple. Typically, to be able to propose meaningful analysis solutions, the analysis problem must first be appropriately constrained, taking into account the relevant application environment. Then, complementary types of analysis techniques may have to be used in combination to achieve the desired results. This paper proposes a classification of segmentation applications into a set of scenarios, according to the different application constraints and goals. This allows an easier selection of the appropriate video segmentation solution for each specific application. Examples of segmentation solutions for the most relevant scenarios identified are presented.
