An Automatic Cut Detection Algorithm Using Median Filter And Neural Network ITC-CSCC'2000

In this paper, an efficient method to find cut in the MPEG stream data is proposed. For this purpose, histogram difference and pixel difference is considered as a noise signal. The signal is then filtered out by a median filter to make the frame difference larger. The frame difference obtained in this way is classified into cut frame and non-cut frame by the 2-means clustering without using any threshold value. To improve the classification ratio, a back-propagation neural network is constructed, where outputs of 2-means clustering are used as the inputs of the network. The simulation results demonstrate the performance of the proposed methods.
