Three Demo Productions (so far) • Football • Premier League GameChelsea FC – Wolverhampton Wanderers (London, October 2010) • Dance Performance • Carmen SuiteBerlin Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Sir Simon Rattle & Dance Compagnie Sasha Waltz (Berlin, May 2012) • Concert • BBC Proms (London, August 2012)
Saliency Map • Center-surround model • inspired from biological models of human visual sensory system • Center-surround features • Pixel intensity • Color chromatic opponents RG and BY • Saliency map for still images
Saliency Detection • Image pyramid based saliency map • Create image pyramid: blur and shrink the image • Build the image differences • Add the image differences
Spatio-temporal SaliencyHistograms • Spatiotemporal saliency model • Split image into grid cells (cell size: e.g. 20x20 pixels for HD) • Compute histogram of pyramid differences for each cell • Compare histograms • Current histogram vs. average of histograms from past second • Distance function: earth mover distance • Region of interest (ROI) • Convert high salient regions into rectangles • Application: automatic view selection • Demo video
