In consequence of the popularity of family video recorders and the surge of Web 2.0, increasing amounts of videos have made the management and integration of the information in videos an urgent and important issue in video retrieval. Key frames, as a high-quality summary of videos, play an important role in the areas of video browsing, searching, categorisation, and indexing. An effective set of key frames should include major objects and events of the video sequence, and should contain minimum content redundancies. In this paper, an innovative key frame extraction method is proposed to select representative key frames for a video. By analysing the differences between frames and utilising the clustering technique, a set of key frame candidates (KFCs) is first selected at the shot level, and then the information within a video shot and between video shots is used to filter the candidate set to generate the final set of key frames. Experimental results on the TRECVID 2007 video dataset have demonstrated the effectiveness of our proposed key frame extraction method in terms of the percentage of the extracted key frames and the retrieval precision.

The process of key-frame extraction of the undersea video is different from that on the land. The effective key-frame extraction will promote research and retrieval of underwater video. In this paper, we first introduced the characteristics of the undersea video, and then proposed a new key-frame extraction method based on Sensitive Curve brightness change for single-lens undersea video sequences which measures the light shot boundary brightness change. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm can extract key information of the undersea video quickly, and have a good performance for the noise point.


Recently, three Dimension (3D) multimedia technology has grown over a wide range, where the 3D used in many applications such as medical, television, cinema, game, education, etc. The developments also include the computer network, these evaluations make the store and distribute the media very easy and at the same time very critical, where any person can access these data and manipulate it or redistribute it with illegal copyrights. Therefore, it is necessary to find a watermarking technique to keep the security of these media. 3D multimedia, especially 3D Video contains a huge amount of data, trying achievement copyright protection for all these data consumes the computation, and slow down securing process, thus 3D video key frame extraction process is necessary. In this paper, the histogram-based key frame extraction technique is applied to extract essential and important data of the 3D video. A modified invisible, and blind watermark system is suggested in this research for 3D Video copyrights and authentication protection using Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTCWT). The experiment results show that 3D video key extraction system has given high compression ratio ( from 4:1 to 5:1) and the protection system could put an invisible watermark while keeping the quality of the 3D video, as well as the proposed watermark system, is robust where the watermark extracted successfully after applying a different types of attack.
