Following rapid development of software and hardware technologies and increasing enhancement in arithmetic capability, there are more and more content that can be accommodated and processed in video games, which is also increasingly complex and fine. Cutscene as a main narrative method have been developed, which have become necessary to express some key plots and important scenarios in games. Good cutscene can strengthen engagement of players with virtual world in games and make players share affection and sorrow with roles in games; while badly-designed cut-scene or overused cut-scene will impair immersion of players and affect players' gaming experience; for this reason, developers should not continue cut-scene design just from opinions of designers nor make players passive receivers, instead, they should reduce as much as possible interruption by cut-scene to players' immersion and grant players with better immersion. After all, only designs depending on demands and preferences of players by having some knowledge of impacts of cut-scene on players' immersion can be accepted by players.

Scene change detection is an important topic because of the wide and growing range of its applications. Streaming services from many providers are increasing their capacity which causes the industry growth. The method for the scene change detection is described here and compared with the State-of-the-Art methods over the Open Video Scene Detection (OVSD) - an open dataset of Creative Commons licensed videos freely available for download and use to evaluate video scene detection algorithms. The proposed method is based on scene analysis using threshold values and smooth scene changes. A comparison of the presented method was conducted in this research. The obtained results demonstrated the high efficiency of the scene cut localization method proposed by authors, because its efficiency measured in terms of precision, recall, accuracy, and F-metrics score exceeds the best previously known results.

In this paper, we propose new methods to detect a scene cut and a dissolve region in compressed MPEG video sequences. The scene cut detection method uses edge images obtained using DCT AC coefficients and the dissolve detection method utilizes the macroblock type information of the MPEG stream. The proposed scene cut detection method is insensitive to brightness and can detect scene changes more precisely than the methods using DC coefficients since AC edge images can express original images more exactly than DC edge images do. The proposed dissolve detection method using the number of intra macroblocks(MBs) computationally efficient since it does not require the decoding process. Experimental results show that the proposed methods perform better in detection scene changes than conventional other methods.

Gradual scene change detection is known as more difficult problem then abrupt scene change detection on video data analysis for contents based retrieval. In this paper, we present a new method for scene change detection far both abrupt and gradual change using the variable dynamic threshold arid cut frame difference (CFD). For this, We present the characteristics arid mathematical models of gradual transitions anti then, how can be detected by the CFD. And also we present new scene change detection algorithm based on cut frame difference. By the experimental result using real world video data indicate that the proposed method detect various scene changes both abrupt and gradual change efficiently without time-consuming computation and any dependency on a kind of gradual change effects.

Recently, the games on the market are getting rich and excellent in the category of design and productions. The style and production quality of cut-scenes also have achieved a continuous development, so how to stand out from multiple designs and gain popularity always acts as a challenge to designers. However, such design strategy up to developers will be failed to judge whether or not design achievements are loved by players and thus cannot meet rapidly changing market demands on both in a quantity and quality. Therefore, this study holds that cut-scene design for video games must set out from user-centered design(UCD). According to literatures with respect to product market, we know that Market Pull imposes far more impacts on success in bringing new products to the market than the technology Push, hence players actually determines the success of a game in competitive game market. This study will help to enhance the immersion of playing game, including the interest and standing out the designer's message without distorting the original impression in the game publishing environment.

In this paper. we propose the method of Scene Change Detection for video sequence using the DC components and the moving vectors in the Macro Blocks in the DCT blocks. The proposed method detects the Scene Change which would not be related with the specific sequences in the compressed MPEG domain. To do this. we define new metrics for Scene Change Detection using the features of picture component and detect the exact Scene Change point of B-pictures using the characteristics of B-picture's sharp response for the moving vectors. In brief, we will detect the cut point using I-picture and the gradual scene changes such as dissolve, fade, wipe, etc. As a results, our proposed method shows good test results for the various MPEG sequences.

본 논문에서는 멀티미디어 데이터의 MPEG-1 비디오 데이터 정보 중 인트라 모드로 부호화된 매크로블록(macroblock) 타입 개수를 이용하여 후보 컷(cut)을 검출한다. 이렇게 검출된 후보 컷은 이전에 검출된 후보 컷과의 히스토그램 차와 화소 특징값의 분산값과 평균간을 이용하여 카메라 브레이크(camera break)와 같은 일반적인 장면전환(abrupt scene change)뿐만 아니라 커튼효과(curtaining effect)나 페이딩효과(fading effect)와 같은 점진적인 장면전환(gradual scene change)을 검출하는 방법을 제안하고 실험을 통하여 그 유용성을 보인다.

본 논문에서는 신호를 해석하는데 유용한 웨이블렛 변환을 적용하여 장면전환 요소 중 cut과 fade를 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 웨이블렛 저대역 부밴드로부터 각 프레임의 히스토그램을 구한 후 이전 프레임과 현재 프레임사이의 히스토그램 차를 구하여 이 값이 임계값 이상이면 급격한 장면전환(abrut shot transition)인 cut으로 분류한다. 다음으로 페이드인(fade in)이나 페이드 아웃(fade out)등 컷의 지점이 불분명한 점진적 장면전환(gradual scene transition)을 검출하기 위하여 고대역 부밴드에서 추출한 에지성분에 모멘트를 계산하여 인접한 프레임 사이의 변동율을 분석하여 값이 증가하면 페이드 인을 검출하고 반면에 감소하면 페이드 아웃을 검출하게된다. 성능평가를 위하여 실제의 비디오 분할에 적용한 결과 웨이블렛 적용 방법론이 매우 높은 Precision을 갖는다는 것을 알 수 있으며 윤곽정보에 모멘트 정보를 더함으로써 기존의 방법보다 정확한 페이드(fade) 구간을 검출할 수 있었다.

Video scene segmentation is fundamental role for content based video analysis and many kinds of scene segmentation schemes have been proposed in previous researches. However, there is a problem, which is to find optimal threshold value according to various kinds of movies and its content because only fixed single threshold value usually used for cut detection. In this paper, we proposed the variable dynamic threshold method, which change the threshold value by a probability distribution of cut detection interval and information of frame feature differences and cut detection interval in previous cut detection is used to determine the next cut detection. For this, we present a cut detection algorithm and a parameter generation method to change the threshold value in runtime. We also show the proposed method, which can minimize fault alarm rate than the existing methods efficiently by experimental results.

In detection of a scene change of the moving pictures which has massive information capacity, the temporal sampling method has a faster searching speed and lower missing scene change detection than the sequential searching method for the whole moving pictures, yet employed searching algorithm and detection interval greatly affect missing frame and searching precision. In this study, the whole moving pictures were primarily retrieved threshold by the temporal difference of histogram scene change detection method. We suggested a dynamic threshold algorithm using cut detection interval and derived an equation formula to determine optimal primary retrieval threshold which can cut detection interval computation. Experimental results show that the proposed dynamic threshold algorithm using cut detection interval method works up about 30 percent in precision of performance than the sequential searching method.
