Motivation :Motivation Unsupervised Surveillance (90‘s)
Composite Event Discovery [3]
Video Understanding Framework [6]
Importance of Scoring (another word for counting by some A-PRIORI based method)[6]
Automatic Video Interpretation
Relevant Work :Relevant Work Object Detection [1][2].
Declarative representation of scenarios [9], using spatio-temporal and logical constraints.
Use of game pauses, noises and some event sequences.
Cinematic and object features [10].
Scene cuts and camera motion parameters [11].
Voice [12].
Three main categories of approaches are used to recognize scenarios [8]. :
1. Probabilistic/neural network combining potentially recognized scenario
2. Symbolic network that Stores Totally Recognized Scenarios.
3. Symbolic network that Stores Partially Recognized Scenarios.
Our Approach : Overview :Our Approach : Overview HAAR Classification Viola-Jones
Object Detection Prune Errors Tracked Sequence Goal Detection Basketball Video FG ‘+‘ Img Lost ball
Results: intermediate steps :Results: intermediate steps
Goal Detection :Goal Detection Camera View not enough.
Learning by training, a possibility.
External parameters, position of the ball, size of the ball, net interference etc.
Our 4 point location based goal detection works for many situation, but, as obvious it is error prone in the final step of deciding goal.
Results & Conclusion :Results & Conclusion FG+Image to remove Detection errors.
Goals decision, to an extent correctly.
Learning alorithms should improve result.
Conclusion
Goal ≠ Goal ?
Goal = Automatic Video Interpretation √
Difficult with a single Camera.
