Abstract

We are studying about automatic production of soccer sports videos for easy understanding by using digital camera work on camera fixed videos. The digital camera work is a movie technique which uses virtual panning and zooming by clipping frames from hi-resolution images and controlling the frame size and position. We have studied so far digital panning. In this paper, we propose a method of digital zooming by automatically recognizing the game situation or events such as penalty kick and free kick based on player and ball tracking. These recognition results are used as key indices to retrieve the event scenes from soccer videos. We compared the proposed technique with a conventional technique by AHP method that can reflect an individual subjectivity.
