A new fast and accurate heuristic for the Automatic Scene Detection Problem

Description

The Automatic Scene Detection Problem (ASDP) is a combinatorial optimization problem that arises in the context of video processing and that has a central role in the management, storing and content retrieval of videos. The problem consists of partitioning the shots of a given video into scenes by optimizing a measure related to the similarity between the given shots. In this article, we build up upon the results from the literature on the ASDP in order to design a new approximate solution algorithm able to outperform the current state-of-the-art both in terms of speed and quality of the solution.
