Title
Communication-efficient multi-view keyframe extraction in distributed video sensors
Abstract
Video sensors are widely used in many applications such as security monitoring and home care. However, the growth of the number of sensors makes it impractical to stream all videos back to a central server for further processing, due to communication bandwidth and server storage constraints. Multi-view video summarization allows us to discard redundant data in the video streams taken by a group of sensors. All prior multi-view summarization methods, however, process video data in an off-line and centralized manner, which means that all videos are still required to be streamed back to the server before conducting the summarization. This paper proposes an on-line, distributed multi-view summarization system, which integrates the ideas of Maximal Marginal Relevance (MMR) and MS-Wave, a bandwidth-efficient distributed algorithm for finding k-nearest-neighbors and k-farthest-neighbors. Empirical studies show that our proposed system can discard redundant videos and keep important keyframes as effectively as centralized approaches, while transmitting only 1/6 to 1/3 as much data.
