ABSTRACT:
In order to analyze a digital video clip to determine candidate frames for subsequent key frame selection, a camera motion sensor is provided in the camera so that information is provided during image capture regarding camera motion including translation of the scene or camera, or scaling of the scene. The sensor includes an accelerometer or a lens motor sensor. A plurality of video segments is formed based on the global motion estimate and each segment is labeled in accordance with a predetermined series of camera motion classes. Thereafter, key frame candidates are extracted from the labeled segments and a confidence score is computed for each candidate by using rules corresponding to each camera motion class and a rule corresponding to object motion.
