A Quick Scene Search with Constructed Mapped Charts for TV Sport Programs

Abstract

This paper presents the fast scene search algorithm using fixed-image regions of the superimposed-text in a video. Our scheme focuses on the fixed-image region of the superimposed-text which is often an intuitive clue for an enduser for specifying a certain frame in a sport video. The video scene, consisting of superimposed-text detection using MFI algorithm, and Mapped Chart (MC) which constructed the index of a pattern matching, will be searched by the user. Our method found that the searching method with MC was faster (reduced the time consuming more than 50%) and more robust.
