Abstract

A video summary method comprises dividing a video into a plurality of video shots, analyzing each frame in a video shot from the plurality of video shots, determining a saliency of each frame of the video shot, determining a key frame of the video shot based on the saliency of each frame of the video shot, extracting visual features from the key frame and performing shot clustering of the plurality of video shots to determine concept patterns based on the visual features. The method further comprises fusing different concept patterns using a saliency tuning method and generating a summary of the video based upon a global optimization method.
