Abstract

We present a statistical approach for parsing football video structures. Based on video production conventions, a new generic structure called attack is identified, which is an equivalent of scene in other video domains. We define four video segments to construct it, namely play, focus, replay and break. Two middle level visual features, play field ratio and zoom size, are also computed. The detection process includes a two-pass classifier, a combination of Gaussian Mixture Model and Hidden Markov Models. A general suffix tree is introduced to identify and organize attack. In experiments, video structure classification accuracy of about 86% is achieved on broadcasting World Cup 2002 video data.
