Synchronization Of Lecture Videos And Electronic Slides By Video Text Analysis, Feng Wang, Chong-Wah Ngo, Ting-Chuen Pong

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

An essential goal of structuring lecture videos captured in live presentation is to provide a synchronized view of video clips and electronic slides. This paper presents an automatic approach to match video clips and slides based on the analysis of text embedded in lecture videos. We describe a method to reconstruct high-resolution video texts from multiple keyframes for robust OCRrecognition. A two-stage matching algorithm based on the title and content similarity measures between video clips and slides is also proposed.


A Robust Dissolve Detector By Support Vector Machine, Chong-Wah Ngo Nov 2003

A Robust Dissolve Detector By Support Vector Machine, Chong-Wah Ngo

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for the robust detection and classification of dissolve sequences in videos. Our approach is based on the multi-resolution representation of temporal slices extracted from 3D image volume. At the low-resolution (LR) scale, the problem of dissolve detection is reduced as cut transition detection. At the highresolution (HR) space, Gabor wavelet features are computed for regions that surround the cuts located at LR scale. The computed features are then input to support vector machines for pattern classification. Encouraging results have been obtained through experiments.
