Fuzzy video summarization using key frame extraction

Abstract

In this paper we propose to summarize videos based on key frames. We improve upon the histogram and pixel difference based approach with fuzzy rule based approach and also give a new approach which reduces the computation of framewise differences. We test our methods using fidelity ratio and compression ratio on videos of sports from YouTube and UCF sports dataset, videos of commercials and sitcoms. The results of our methods are seen to be comparable to other state of the art approaches.
