Abstract

With the introduction of the standard in video indexing, research in shot boundary detection has recently become popular. While new solutions for long transition detection have recently emerged, there is not much literature that focuses on what to do with the frames within the transition when they are detected. After the approximate position of the long transition is detected, the raw sequence cannot be used for segmentation and indexing due to the special effects incorporated. Here, a technique aims at extracting extra information from the transition after the existence of a long transition is confirmed. This technique consists of four stages, namely, shot boundary refinement, shot type determination, frame reconstruction for soft transition and pixel classification for hard transition. This paper gives the overview as well as performance of each stage. This technique allows detected transitions to be analyzed without human intervention.
