3. Testing Existing Algorithms

4. 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

5. 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

6. 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

7. 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
