In this paper, we study the problem of the fast selection of video objects, as an aid for the efficient semi-automatic annotation of video programs. In a regular system, the user ...
We propose a video region segmentation scheme combining spatio-temporal edges and watershed techniques. We consider the video sequence as a 3-D volume and compute color edges with...
This paper deals with conversion from H.264/AVC (Advanced Video Coding) coded video into the MPEG-2 format. The proposed approach exploits similarities between the coding techniqu...
Spatio-temporal interest region detectors can be used in the analysis of video to determine sparse, informative regions as candidates for feature extraction. In this paper we comp...
A method for video indexing and filtering based on motion activity characteristics in hierarchical levels is proposed. To extract motion activity information, an MPEG (MPEG-1/2) v...
