COMPUTERIZED PROMINENT PERSON RECOGNITION IN VIDEOS

摘要

Techniques for identifying prominent subjects in video content based on feature point extraction are described herein. Video files may be processed to detect faces on video frames and extract feature points from the video frames. Some video frames may include detected faces and extracted feature points and other video frames may not include detected faces. Based on the extracted feature points, faces may be inferred on video frames where no face was detected. The inferring may be based on feature points. Additionally, video frames may be arranged into groups and two or more groups may be merged. The merging may be based on some groups including video frames having overlapping feature points. The resulting groups each may identify a subject. A frequency representing a number of video frames where the subject appears may be determined for calculating a prominence score for each of the identified subjects in the video file.
