A Novel Method to Search for Similar Video Clips within a TV Broadcast

Nael Hirzallah

Abstract— Marketing executives are among other groups who may be interested in matching a specific video commercial or other video clips within a certain broadcast channel. This paper presents an algorithm to recognize a certain video sequence within a live video stream. The algorithm features a way to create a small sized digital signature from of a target video clip. Uploading a number of these signatures into the proposed system to automatically watch a TV channel and record or mark the times any of the video clips in question have been displayed would save time, cost and efforts that would have been invested in such a job if done manually. The proposed algorithm is based on selecting key frames, processing these frames, and performing a number of comparisons that involve some image parameters.

Index Terms— Camera Cuts, Commercials, Image Processing, Multimedia, Scene Detection, Video Sequence.
