Abstract
In this paper, we propose a method for video summarization based on human activity description. We formulate this problem as the one of automatic video segment selection based on a learning process that employs salient video segment paradigms. For this one-class classification problem, we introduce a novel variant of the One-Class Support Vector Machine (OC-SVM) classifier that exploits subclass information in the OC-SVM optimization problem, in order to jointly minimize the data dispersion within each subclass and determine the optimal decision function. We evaluate the proposed approach in three Hollywood movies, where the performance of the proposed SOC-SVM algorithm is compared with that of the OC-SVM. Experimental results denote that the proposed approach is able to outperform OC-SVM-based video segment selection.
