Temporal attention graph

Reede Ren, Joemon M. Jose

Abstract: Temporal attention is a psychological measurement of human focus in a long perceptual process such as watching a sports video. This measurement facilitates the identification of the most attractive components in media documents, especially in videos. In this paper, we propose a graphic representation which visualizes attention related temporal sequences from multiple resolutions. Efficient image operations are used to analyze perceptual attention. This results in an effective fusion approach for temporal attention estimation. We evaluate the effectiveness by the application of general highlight detection in sports videos, as sports highlights are temporal attended area. The experimental collection includes six full football games from FIFA World Cup and European Champion.
