Jianguo Li, Tao Wang, Wei Hu, Mingliang Sun, Yimin Zhang · 2006
Soccer highlight detection is an active research topic in recent years. One of the difficult problems is how to effectively fuse multi-modality cues, i.e. audio, visual and textual information, to improve the detection performance. This paper proposes a novel two-dependence Bayesian network (2d-BN) based fusion approach to soccer highlight detection. 2d-BN is a particular Bayesian network which assumes that each variable depends on two other variables at most. Through this assumption, 2d-BN can not only characterize the relationships among features but also be trained efficiently. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method
