Content Based Video Retrieval by Using Distributed Real-Time System Based on Storm

Abstract

Time processing is a challenging issue for content-based video retrieval systems, especially when the process of indexing, classifying and retrieving desired and relevant videos is from a huge database. A CBVR system called bounded coordinate of motion histogram (BCMH) has been implemented as a case study. The BCMH offline step requires a long time to complete the learning phase, and the online step falls short in addressing the real-time video processing. To overcome these drawbacks, this article presents a batch-oriented computing based on Apache Hadoop to improve the time processing for the offline step, and a real-time oriented computing based on Apache Storm topologies to achieve a real-time response for the online step. The proposed approach is tested on the HOLLYWOOD2 dataset and the obtained results demonstrate reliability and efficiency of the proposed method.
