Testing Existing Algorithms

Testing Existing Algorithms

Observations Simple fusion of motion detection and static image saliency produces noisy results Image adjustment method increases background saliency; areas of no motion may need to be suppressed

Temporal Saliency Instead of comparing adjacent frames, apply concept of saliency along the temporal dimension Useful for detecting the start of motion and collage based video summarization

Collage Based Video Summarization Express video as a series of clippings of the most spatially salient parts of the most temporally salient frames in the video

Current Work New concept of temporal saliency would be aided by being able to access the inner workings of the code Recreate Goferman et. al’s code Start to implement temporal saliency on top of the existing spatial saliency
