Abstract

The recent popularity of smart mobile devices has led to a significant increase in the needs of multimedia services. Finding new more efficient methods for automatic classification and retrieval of a large number of multimedia files will significantly reduce manpower costs. However, most current video content analysis methods adopt low-level features to analyze video frame by frame, and need to improve high-level semantic analysis on a number of issues. Hence, this study presents a storyboard-based accurate automatic summary video editing system that uses storyboard information, such as character dialogue, narration, caption, background music and shot changes, to enable accurate video content retrieval and automatic render summary videos. The proposed system can be applied to the course video trailer and the commercial video trailer for quick preview video content or suitable viewing configuration for smart mobile devices. Consequently, the audience can quickly understand the whole video story and the video editors can substantially reduce the time taken to publish videos.
