Video Segmentation Based on Sequential Change Detection

In content-based video analysis, substantial research efforts have been focused on developing techniques to detect the boundaries between two successive shots, each comprising consecutive frames filmed with a single camera act. However, there is still room for further improvement in the detection performance. With the use of sequential change detection and the help of nonparametric density estimation principles, we propose A new shot boundary detection method that can maintain not only satisfactory detection accuracy, but also consistent detection performance based on the results of various test videos.
