• Abstract summary: Video summarization automatically generate concise summaries by selecting techniques, shots, or segments that capture the video's essence. Despite the importance of video summarization, there is a lack of diverse and representative datasets. We propose an unsupervised approach that leverages video data structure and information for generating informative summaries.

• Abstract: Video summarization is a crucial research area that aims to efficiently browse and retrieve relevant information from the vast amount of video content available today. With the exponential growth of multimedia data, the ability to extract meaningful representations from videos has become essential. Video summarization techniques automatically generate concise summaries by selecting keyframes, shots, or segments that capture the video's essence. This process improves the efficiency and accuracy of various applications, including video surveillance, education, entertainment, and social media. Despite the importance of video summarization, there is a lack of diverse and representative datasets, hindering comprehensive evaluation and benchmarking of algorithms. Existing evaluation metrics also fail to fully capture the complexities of video summarization, limiting accurate algorithm assessment and hindering the field's progress. To overcome data scarcity challenges and improve evaluation, we propose an unsupervised approach that leverages video data structure and information for generating informative summaries. By moving away from fixed annotations, our framework can produce representative summaries effectively. Moreover, we introduce an innovative evaluation pipeline tailored specifically for video summarization. Human participants are involved in the evaluation, comparing our generated summaries to ground truth summaries and assessing their informativeness. This human-centric approach provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of our proposed techniques. Experimental results demonstrate that our training-free framework outperforms existing unsupervised approaches and achieves competitive results compared to state-of-the-art supervised methods.

  The paper explores the various approaches and methods created for video summarizing, emphasizing both abstractive and extractive strategies. The process of extractive summarization involves the identification of key frames or segments from the source video, utilizing methods such as shot boundary recognition, and clustering. On the other hand, abstractive summarization creates new content by getting the essential content from the video, using machine learning models like deep neural networks and natural language processing, reinforcement learning, attention mechanisms, generative adversarial networks, and multi-modal learning.
