VIDEO CUT DETECTION USING CHROMATICITY HISTOGRAM

This paper introduces video shot detection method based on chromaticity histogram. The Chromaticity diagram provides a two dimensional representation of the image, and a corresponding two dimensional histogram can be constructed. The Horizontal Projection Profile (HPP) and Vertical Projection Profile (VPP) are obtained from the histogram. This feature vector is compared between successive frames to detect the presence of cut in the video. Experiments have been conducted on TRECVID video database to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed model.
