Detection of Shot Transition in Sports Video Based on Associative Memory Neural Network

Abstract

Users must quickly and effectively classify, browse, and retrieve videos due to the explosive growth of video data. A variety of shots make up the video data stream. The most important technology in video retrieval is shot detection, which can fundamentally solve many problems, resulting in improved detection effects and even directly affecting video retrieval performance. This paper investigates the shot transition detection algorithm in digital video live broadcasts based on sporting events. To solve the problem of shot transition detection using a single training sample, an AMNN (Associative Memory Neural Network) model with online learning ability is proposed. Experiments on a large football video data set show that this algorithm detects shear and gradual change better than existing algorithms and meets the application requirements of sports video retrieval in most cases.
