Video Shot Segmentation and Classification

In this paper, we propose a novel technique for video shot segmentation and classification based on the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). For the input video sequence, we create a feature-frame matrix A, and perform the SVD on it. From this SVD, we are able to not only derive the refined feature space to better segment the video sequence along time axis, but also define metrics to enable classifications of the detected video shots. Using these SVD properties, we achieve the two goals of accurate video shot segmentation, and visual content-based shot classification at the same time.
