Visual features extraction through spatiotemporal slice analysis

Abstract

In this paper we propose a novel feature extracting method based on spatiotemporal slice analyzing. To date, video features are focused on the character of every single video frame. With our method, the video content is no longer represented with every single frame. The temporal variation of visual information is taken as an important feature of video in our method. We examined this kind of feature with experiments in this paper. The experiment results show that the proposed feature is effective and robust for variant video content and format. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
