On the use of hierarchical prediction structures for efficient summary generation of H.264/AVC bitstreams Luis Herranz, Jose´ M. Martı´nez Image Communication 2009
Outline • Introduction • System Framework • Skimming Unit (SU) • Coding order • Generation of the summary • Presentation of the summary • Experiment
Introduction • MPEG-2 prediction structure
Introduction • Hierarchical prediction structure in H.264/AVC using P frames (delay 0)
Introduction • Hierarchical prediction structure in H.264/AVC using B frames (delay 8)
System Framework Analyzing input bitstream Generating the summarized bitstream Skimming unit (SU) -The selection of SUs-Temporal level # frames selected
Skimming Units Temporal layer 1 Index Skimming Unit (SU)
Skimming Units Overlapped SUs
Generation of the Summary • Bit stream adaptation guided by skimming parameters
Presentation of the Summary • Constant frame rate • Variable frame rate • Signaling the changes of frame rate • Using a predefined set of SPSs
Summarization Modalities • Image storyboard: • Video Skim: • Frame dropping • Fast preview Frame selection Skimming curve
Image Storyboard • Clustered using K-means algorithm
Video Skimming • Face detection • Moving median filter (a) Frames with face detected (b) Skimming parameters -- 32 frames per GOP (c) Skimming parameters -- 2 frames per GOP
Fast Preview • Motion activity • Median filter (a) Filtered activity (b) Skimming parameters -- 32 frames GOP (c) Skimming parameters -- 2 frames GOP
Subjective Evaluation Visual distortion Semantic distortion
Performance Evaluation • Coding efficiency and processing time
Performance Evaluation • Bit stream extraction • Low computational cost • Faster generation of the bit stream
