Abstract
In this paper, we propose an efficient scheme for automatically detecting highlight scenes in soccer videos. Highlights are defined as shooting scenes and goal scenes. Through the analysis of soccer videos, we notice that most of highlight scenes are shown around the goal post area. It is also noticed that the TV camera zooms in a setter player or spectators after the highlight stones. Detection of highlight scenes for soccer videos consists of three steps. The first step is the extraction of the playing field using a statistical threshold. The second step is the detection of goal posts. In the final step, we detect a zooming of a soccer player or spectators by using connected component labeling of non-playing field. In order to evaluate the performance of our method, the precision and the recall are computed. Experimental results have shown the effectiveness of the proposed method, with 95.2% precision and 85.4% recall.
