Abstract

TV program review services, especially drama review services, are one of the most popular video on demand services on the Web. In this paper, we propose a novel video abstraction model for a review service of story-oriented video such as dramas. In a drama review service, viewers want to understand the story in a short time and service providers want to provide video abstracts at minimum cost. The proposed model enables the automatic creation of a video abstract that still allows viewers to understand the overall story of the source video. Also, the model has a flexible structure so that the duration of an abstract can be adjusted depending on the requirements given by viewers. We get clues for human understanding of a story from scenario writing rules and editorial techniques which are popularly used in the process of video producing. We have implemented the proposed model and successfully applied it to several TV dramas.
