Temporal feature induction for baseball highlight classification
Michael Fleischman, Brandon C. Roy, Deb Kumar Roy · 2007
Most approaches to highlight classification in the sports domain exploit only limited temporal information. This paper presents a method, called temporal feature induction, which automatically mines complex temporal information from raw video for use in highlight classification. The method exploits techniques from temporal data mining to discover a codebook of temporal patterns that encode long distance dependencies and duration information. Preliminary experiments show that using such induced temporal features significantly improves performance of a baseball highlight classification system.
