User-generated videos have become increasingly popular in recent years. Due to advances in camera technology it is now very easy and convenient to record videos with mobile devices, such as smartphones. Here we consider an application where users collect and share a large set of videos that are related to a geographic area, say a city. Such a repository can be a great source of information for prospective tourists when they plan to visit a city and would like to get a preview of its main areas. The challenge that we address is how to automatically create a preview video summary from a large set of source videos.
