Abstract

This technical demo is build around a system we developed to automatically match persons within a video sequence. The persons are clustered by face similarity and shot information. The demo is a video editing tool with a "person query" option to show only that part of the sequence that features one of the selected actors. The demo is targeted for narrative content: series and movies, and shows the ability of the underlying person matching algorithm to operate well in a general (unconstrained) case.
