Method for detecting scene change in a video picture sequence

摘要

The method is characterized in that it comprises the following steps:
- detection of the static areas (3) in the current picture,
- calculation of a histogram (4) for the non-static areas of the current picture
- calculation of the difference (6) between the histogram of a current picture and the histogram of at least one preceding picture,
- declaration of scene change (7) if the difference is greater than a predetermined threshold. The applications related to video processing using picture movement such as up-conversion of video pace, reduction of motion compensated noise.
