Surveillance Video Key Frame Extraction Based on Center Offset

With the explosive growth of surveillance video data,browsing videos quickly and effectively has become an urgent problem.Video key frame extraction has received widespread attention as an effective solution.However,accurately capturing the local motion state changes of moving objects in the video is still challenging in key frame extraction.The target center offset can reflect the change of its motion state.This observation proposed a novel key frame extraction method based on moving objects center offset in this paper.The proposed method utilizes the center offset to obtain the global and local motion state information of moving objects,and meanwhile,selects the video frame where the center offset curve changes suddenly as the key frame.Such processing effectively overcomes the inaccuracy of traditional key frame extraction methods.Initially,extracting the center point of each frame.Subsequently,calculating the center point offset of each frame and forming the center offset curve by connecting the center offset of each frame.Finally,extracting candidate key frames and optimizing them to generate final key frames.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms contrast methods to capturing the local motion state changes of moving objects.

Structured Sparse Coding With the Group Log-regularizer for Key Frame Extraction

Key frame extraction based on sparse coding can reduce the redundancy of continuous frames and concisely express the entire video.However,how to develop a key frame extraction algorithm that can automatically extract a few frames with a low reconstruction error remains a challenge.In this paper,we propose a novel model of structured sparse-codingbased key frame extraction,wherein a nonconvex group log-regularizer is used with strong sparsity and a low reconstruction error.To automatically extract key frames,a decomposition scheme is designed to separate the sparse coefficient matrix by rows.The rows enforced by the nonconvex group log-regularizer become zero or nonzero,leading to the learning of the structured sparse coefficient matrix.To solve the nonconvex problems due to the log-regularizer,the difference of convex algorithm(DCA)is employed to decompose the log-regularizer into the difference of two convex functions related to the l1 norm,which can be directly obtained through the proximal operator.Therefore,an efficient structured sparse coding algorithm with the group log-regularizer for key frame extraction is developed,which can automatically extract a few frames directly from the video to represent the entire video with a low reconstruction error.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can extract more accurate key frames from most Sum Me videos compared to the stateof-the-art methods.Furthermore,the proposed algorithm can obtain a higher compression with a nearly 18% increase compared to sparse modeling representation selection(SMRS)and an 8% increase compared to SC-det on the VSUMM dataset.

Key Frame Extraction of Surveillance Video Based on Fractional Fourier Transform

With the vigorous development of national infrastructure construction and public information construction,video surveillance systems have gradually penetrated various fields.The current key frame extraction technology has inadequate target details and inaccurate judgment of local actions.Addressing this problem,a key frame extraction method based on fractional Fourier transform is proposed.This method obtained the phase spectra information of different orders by performing fractional Fourier transform on the surveillance video frames.Next,the method designed an adaptive algorithm based on the golden section point to select the transformation order.Then,the phase spectrum information of two adjacent frames was used to characterize the changes in the global and local motion states of the target.The final step was to extract key frames based on this.Experimental results show that,compared with the previous methods,the key frames extracted by the method proposed in this paper can correctly capture the changes in the global and local motion states of the target.

Video Key Frame Extraction by Unsupervised Clustering and Feedback Adjustment

In video information retrieval, key frame extraction has been rec ognized as one of the important research issues. Although much progress has been made, the existing approaches are either computationally expensive or ineffective in capturing salient visual content. In this paper, we first discuss the importance of key frame extraction and then briefly review and evaluate the existing approaches. To overcome the shortcomings of the existing approaches, we introduce a new algorithm for key frame extraction based on unsupervised clustering. Meanwhile, we provide a feedback chain to adjust the granularity of the extraction result. The proposed algorithm is both computationally simple and able to capture the visual content.The efficiency and effectiveness are validated by large amount of real-world videos.

Intelligent Mobile Video Surveillance System with Multilevel Distillation

This paper proposes a mobile video surveillance system consisting of intelligent video analysis and mobile communication networking. This multilevel distillation approach helps mobile users monitor tremendous surveillance videos on demand through video streaming over mobile communication networks. The intelligent video analysis includes moving object detection/tracking and key frame selection which can browse useful video clips. The communication networking services, comprising video transcoding, multimedia messaging, and mobile video streaming, transmit surveillance information into mobile appliances. Moving object detection is achieved by background subtraction and particle filter tracking. Key frame selection, which aims to deliver an alarm to a mobile client using multimedia messaging service accompanied with an extracted clear frame, is reached by devising a weighted importance criterion considering object clarity and face appearance. Besides, a spatial- domain cascaded transcoder is developed to convert the filtered image sequence of detected objects into the mobile video streaming format. Experimental results show that the system can successfully detect all events of moving objects for a complex surveillance scene, choose very appropriate key frames for users, and transcode the images with a high power signal-to-noise ratio （PSNR）.
