Video segmentation based on Pratt's figure of merit
Miroslav Hagara, Adam Hlavatovic · 2009
In our paper we present new method for detection of slow motion video segments. First we detect edges in two subsequent images from video stream. To compare these edge images we compute Pratt's figure of merit. Pratt's figure of merit is normally used as performance measure for edge detection method. We use this parameter in different way as motion intensity indicator, high values of figure of merit point to video segments with either no motion or slow motion in scene.
