Making a long story short: A Multi-Importance Semantic for Fast-Forwarding Egocentric Videos
نویسندگان
چکیده
The emergence of low-cost high-quality personal wearable cameras combined with the increasing storage capacity of video-sharing websites have evoked a growing interest in first-person videos, since most videos are composed of longrunning unedited streams which are usually tedious and unpleasant to watch. State-of-the-art semantic fast-forward methods currently face the challenge of providing an adequate balance between smoothness in visual flow and the emphasis on the relevant parts. In this work, we present the Multi-Importance Fast-Forward (MIFF), a fully automatic methodology to fast-forward egocentric videos facing these challenges. The dilemma of defining what is the semantic information of a video is addressed by a learning process based on the preferences of the user. Results show that the proposed method keeps over 3 times more semantic content than the state-of-the-art fast-forward. Finally, we discuss the need of a particular video stabilization technique for fast-forward egocentric videos.

EgoSampling: Wide View Hyperlapse from Egocentric Videos
The possibility of sharing one’s point of view makes use of wearable cameras compelling. These videos are often long, boring and coupled with extreme shake, as the camera is worn on a moving person. Fast forwarding (i.e. frame sampling) is a natural choice for quick video browsing. However, this accentuates the shake caused by natural head motion in an egocentric video, making the fast forwarde...

متن کاملStoryline Representation of Egocentric Videos with an Application to Story-based Search
Egocentric videos are a valuable source of information as a daily log of our lives. However, large fraction of egocentric video content is typically irrelevant and boring to re-watch. It is an agonizing task, for example, to manually search for the moment when your daughter first met Mickey Mouse from hours-long egocentric videos taken at Disneyland. Although many summarization methods have bee...
متن کامل基於使用者偏好之影片快轉模型 User-preference-based Video Fast-forwarding Model
In this thesis we propose a new video interaction model called adaptive fast-forwarding to help people quickly browse videos with predefined semantic rules. This model is designed around the metaphor of scenic car driving, in which the driver slows down near areas of interest and speeds through unexciting areas. Results from a preliminary user study of our video player suggest the following: • ...
