We present a method for detecting shot boundaries and grouping together shots that were taken from identical camera directions. The technique utilizes methods including spectral clustering and phase correlation to achieve fast and accurate segmentation and grouping. Keywords—Shot Segmentation, Shot Boundary Detection, Shot Grouping, Cut Detection

Major challenges in camera-base document analysis are dealing with uneven shadows, high degree of curl and perspective distortions. In CBDAR 2007, we introduced the first dataset (DFKI-I) of camera-captured document images in conjunction with a page dewarping contest. One of the main limitations of this dataset is that it contains images only from technical books with simple layouts and moderat...

Skew estimation and page segmentation are the two closely related processing stages for document image analysis. Skew estimation needs proper page segmentation, especially for document images with multiple skews that are common in scanned images from thick bound publications in 2-up style or postal envelopes with various printed labels. Even if only a single skew is concerned for a document ima...

Abstract This paper applies a new approach to the identification of discourses, based on Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA), study discourse variation over time. The MCA keywords deals with major issue use identify discourses: allocation individual multiple discourses. Yet, as this demonstrates, also allows us observe in prevalence discourses texts patterns keyword co-occurrence. Metadata c...

In recent years, many web applications are available to use. Most of these applications are poorly modeled or not modeled at all. One of the main modeling techniques is presentation modeling in which the layout of the page is shown. In this paper we present a new reverse engineering method, which takes a web page as input and returns a UML presentation model that represents the page. We applied...

In ordinary search engines for Web pages, the data unit for query processing is individual pages. Indexes are produced for each page in accordance with the words appearing in it. In actual Web data, however, a logical document discussing one topic is often organized into a set of pages connected via links provided by the page author as “standard navigation routes.” In such a situation, conjunct...
