  • Problem:

n Rapidly growing quantities of digital video n Increasing research in content-based retrieval from digital video n But no common basis for evaluation/comparison of approaches

  • Approach:

n Find as much video data as possible and make it available to the community of researchers n Use the data to build an open, metrics-based evaluation in the Cranfield/TREC tradition n Invite participation and see what happens…

Origins

slide-3
SLIDE 3
  • Promote progress in content-based retrieval

from large amounts of digital video

  • Answer some questions:

n How can systems achieve such retrieval (in collaboration with a human)? n How can one reliably benchmark such systems?

Goals

SLIDE 4
  • Evolution… 2001

q TREC 2001 Video retrieval track q Data: 11 hrs (OpenVideo, NIST)

  • 2 Tasks:

n Shot boundary determination n Search

  • Fully automatic
  • Interactive
  • Participating groups: 12
slide-5
SLIDE 5
  • Evolution… 2002

q TREC 2002 Video retrieval track q Data: 73 hrs (Prelinger Archive)

  • 3 Tasks:

n Shot boundary determination n High

  • level feature extraction (10)

n Search (manual and interactive)

  • Participating groups: 17
  • New:

n Common shot reference defines unit of retrieval n Common key frames n Shared features, ASR output provided by LIMSI

slide-6
SLIDE 6
  • TRECVID Workshop
  • Data: 133 hrs (1998 ABC/CNN news + C-SPAN)
  • 4 Tasks:

n Shot boundary determination n High-level feature extraction (17) n Story segmentation and classification n Search (manual and interactive)

  • Participating groups: 24
  • New:

n Common annotation effort n Advisory committee

  • Shot Boundary Detection task
  • SBD is an enabling function for almost all content-based
  • perations on digital video, so its important;
  • (Still) not a new problem, but a challenge because of

gradual transitions and false positives caused by photo flashes, rapid camera movement, object movement, etc.;

  • Task is to identify transitions and determine whether each is

“cut”, “dissolve”, “fadeout/in” or “other”;

  • TRECVID2003 dataset is slightly (10%) larger than 2002 but

has many more (78%) shot transitions;

slide-10
SLIDE 10
  • Shot Boundary Detection task
  • Manually created ground truth of 3,734 transitions (thanks

again to Jonathan Lasko) with 70.7% hard cuts, 20.2% dissolves, 3.1% fades and 5.9% other … very similar ratios to 2002;

  • Up to 10 submissions per group, measured using precision

and recall, with a bit of flexibility for matching gradual transitions;

  • Most participating groups use their 10 submissions to

“tweak” some parameter;

  • Observations
  • Most techniques are based on frame-frame

comparisons, some with sliding windows;

  • Comparisons are based on colour and on

luminance, mostly;

  • Some use adaptive thresholding, some don’t;
  • Most operate on decoded video stream;
  • Some have special treatment of motion during

GTs, of flashes, of camera wipes;

  • Performances are getting better;

  • Story segmentation and news typing
  • Identify the individual news items in a news show
  • New task in TRECVID, has been studied in ASR/IR

community (TDT)

  • Hope to show the gain of using video features

1. Segmentation task

n Identify story boundaries in CNN and ABC news shows n Ground truth based on TDT 2 annotations n Evaluation based on precision & recall, boundaries have to be within +/- 5 seconds interval around ground truth boundaries

2. News classification task

n Annotate stories as either news or non-news n Evaluation based on percentage of correctly identified news story footage

  • Observations
  • Video provides strong clues for story segmentation and

even more for classification, best runs are either type 1 or 2

  • AV runs generally have a higher precision
  • Combination of AV and ASR gives a small gain for

segmentation

  • Most approaches are generic
  • Are the combination methods optimal?
  • Are the ASR segmentation runs state of the art?

  • FE Task definition
  • Goal: Build benchmark for detection methods of high-level

features

  • Secondary goal: feature-indexing can help search and

navigation

  • New: common feature annotation

n Helps (a.o.) to standardize training resources across sites n Category A: sites work with just the common development data and common annotations n Category B: sites work with just the common development data and any annotation set n Category C: other

slide-94

  • FE evaluation
  • Each feature is assumed to be binary: absent or

present for each shot

  • Find shots that contain a certain feature, rank them

according to confidence measure, submit the top 2000

  • Submissions are pooled
  • Evaluate performance quality by measuring the

average precision of each feature detection method

  • TRECVID2003: Search Task
  • Search, summarisation, linking, etc. are the

ultimate operations on digital video and SBD, features, segmentation, are all enablers for this;

  • TRECVID search is an extension of its text-only

analogue where systems, including a human in the loop, are presented with a topic and are to return up to 1,000 shots which meet the need;

  • Note the unit of retrieval is the shot, not the news

story;

  • Two search modes … manual and interactive, and

we’re not yet able for full automatic;

  • Search Types: Interactive and Manual
  • Topics are MM and the interactions between text,

image, video, audio, are complex and understanding how exemplars represent information need, is not really understood;

  • This task really benefitted from the ASR donated

by Jean-Luc Gauvain of LIMSI which is (anecdotally) very accurate;

  • One baseline run based on ASR-only was required
  • f every manual system;

  • Topics
  • We can’t achieve the ideal of topics from real users

searching our dataset;

  • NIST created topics based on a number of basic

search types: generic/specific and person/thing/event where there are multiple relevant shots coming from more than one video;

  • Videos were viewed by NIST personnel (sound off),

  • Evaluation
  • Groups allowed to submit up to 10 runs and 37

interactive and 38 manual runs were submitted from 11 groups;

  • All submissions were pooled and judged by NIST

assessors to variable depths depending on “hit rate” of finding relevant shots;

  • Evaluation was trec_eval;

SLIDE 127
  • Results

q Absolute performance figures must be taken in their context, so don’t believe the numbers … read the papers !

  • We tried to level the field by standardising on time

spent (15 min.) and thought of introducing a reference system at each site, but TRECVID not yet mature enough for that;

  • Also, submitted runs do not necessarily

correspond to 1 user, but can be aggregates of multiple users, 2+ groups did this;

  • Observations
  • Lots of variation, interesting shot browsing

interfaces, mixture of interactive & manual;

  • Approximately as much use of donated features as

TV2002;

  • A lot more participation, more runs, better at the

upper end … quite respectable curves !

  • Nearly a dozen groups can now complete the

search task and the demos are impressive;
