Sinnu Susan Thomas, Sumana Gupta, Venkatesh K. Subramanian · IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Video Technology · 2016

The enormous growth of video content in recent times has raised the need to abbreviate the content for human consumption. Thus, there is a need for summaries of a quality that meets the requirements of human users. This also means that the summarization must incorporate the peculiar features of human perception. We present a new framework for video summarization in this paper. Unlike many available summarization algorithms that utilize only statistical redundancy, we introduce for the first time the features of the human visual system within the summarization framework itself to allow for the emphasis of perceptually significant events while simultaneously eliminating perceptual redundancy from the summaries. The subjective and objective evaluation scores have evaluated the framework.
