From Video Shot Clustering to Sequence Segmentation

Automatically building high-level segments to structure information in video documents is a challenging task. This paper presents a method based on the cophenetic criterion, a distance between clustered shots which detects breaks between sequences. It describes and compares various implemented options. Experiments have proved that the proposed criterion can be used for achieving segmentation.
