Key frame based video summarization using frame difference
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to extract the video frames from the original video that would be the most informative and concise representation of the whole video. Such frames are referred as key frames. Key frames are extracted for video summarization using Frame Difference method. Key frames based video summarization works on frames so initially a video frame sequence is divided into frames. The redundant content from the extracted video frames is discarded by calculating the frame difference between the adjacent frames. The frames whose difference is greater than certain threshold are considered as Key frames. The extracted Key frames are combined to form a summarized video and played in MATLAB using few commands.
Keywords: Video, key-frame, summarization, frame.
