Abstract
In this paper, we propose a video summarization method able to produce a motion video summary that minimizes the visual content redundancy for the input video. We derive the visual content redundancy metric that tells how much redundancy a video contains, and how much the video can be curtailed without loosing too much visual content. Then we propose a method that produces a summary of the input video with the minimal redundancy measure. The video summary also contains the original audio segments that are partially synchronized with the summarized visual content. The experimental evaluations show the effectiveness of the redundancy metric and the summarization method.
