Key Frame Extraction from Video
A complete overview of key frame extraction techniques has been provided. It has been found out that such techniques usually have three phases, namely shot boundary detection as a pre-processing phase, main phase of key frame detection, where visual, structural, audio and textual features are extracted from each frame, then processed and analyzed with artificial intelligence methods, and the last post-processing phase lies in removal of duplicates if they occur in the resulting sequence of key frames. Estimation techniques and available test video collections have been also observed. At the end, conclusions concerning drawbacks of the examined procedure and basic tendencies of its development have been marked.
