Video Key Frame Extraction by Unsupervised Clustering and Feedback Adjustment

In video information retrieval, key frame extraction has been rec ognized as one of the important research issues. Although much progress has been made, the existing approaches are either computationally expensive or ineffective in capturing salient visual content. In this paper, we first discuss the importance of key frame extraction and then briefly review and evaluate the existing approaches. To overcome the shortcomings of the existing approaches, we introduce a new algorithm for key frame extraction ba…
