Caption in video plays an important role that delivers video content. Existing caption region extraction methods are difficult to extract caption region from background because they are sensitive to noise. This paper proposes the method to extract caption region in sports video using multiple frame merge and MBR(Minimum Bounding Rectangles). As preprocessing, adaptive threshold can be extracted using contrast stretching and Othu Method. Caption frame interval is extracted by multiple frame merge and caption region is efficiently extracted by median filtering, morphological dilation, region labeling, candidate character region filtering, and MBR extraction.

We can speak caption as information that can not except caption on sports video. The sports highlight were composed that we recognize captioning. This paper is the necessary work to the middle-step to analysis the caption through the retrieval and discrimination from the position of caption. This paper improve at first and simplify the image through the excellent threshold value algorithm in the preprocessing and then use method that can analysis caption through the multiplex frame merging algorithm. Its speed performing shows up higher and simplier than the region growing process.
