Hybrid Method of Video Shot Segmentation Based on YCbCr Space Color Model

In this digital world, Video analysis is the most important and useful task. Currently, tremendous tasks have been done in video analysis like compressing the videos, video retrieval process and video database indexing, etc. For all these tasks, one common step is segmenting the video shots, which are referred to as Video Shots Segmentation (VSS). Video shots segmentation is used to segment the input videos into a number of frames sequentially where the scene changes occurred, i.e. called shots. In this article, segmenting the video shots follows a hybrid procedure. Here, we have introduced the moments of colors, distance metrics and threshold techniques. All the videos follow the above mentioned steps for segmenting the video shots. But, before that, the input video is converted into a specific color model i.e. YCbCr. Then, apply the color moments to extract the feature vectors of frames, which are differentiated based on the color features of frames. In every two frames of the video, distance metrics methods are applying to compute the similarity and dissimilarity of frames. And the dissimilarity of the frames can be computed by using the threshold technique to get the shots from the video. In this paper, we are using the adaptive threshold technique to segment the videos into various shots. In this step, we will get a true number of shots. By the experimental results, this proposed methodology can be evaluated with the sequence of videos based on the performance or evaluation metrics.
