Abstract

This paper presents a practical approach to detecting shot cuts and extracting keyframes from video sequences. Shot cut detection has two stages - global motion compensation, followed by an adaptive thresholding algorithm. The motion information is further utilized to extract representative keyframes. Special consideration has been given to achieving real-time performance on a regular PC, which led to a motion estimation algorithm of linear complexity.
