Video Shot Characterization Using Principles of Perceptual Prominence and Perceptual Grouping in Spatio–Temporal Domain
Gaurav Harit, Santanu Chaudhury · IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology · 2007
We present a novel approach for applying perceptual grouping principles to the spatio-temporal domain of video. Our perceptual grouping scheme, applied on blobs, makes use of a specified spatio-temporal coherence model. The grouping scheme identifies the blob cliques or perceptual clusters in the scene. We propose a computational model for analyzing a video shot based on a novel principle of perceptual prominence. The principle of perceptual prominence captures the key aspects of mise-en-scene required for characterizing a video scene.
