Video analyzing device, video analyzing method, program, and integrated circuit
View Patent ↗A video analyzing device according to the present invention specifies an object-related section from video. The object-related section being related to a specific object appearing in the video. The video analyzing device includes an object-related section specifier that specifies a non-detected section as the object-related section when a predetermined condition is satisfied and does not specify the non-detected section as the object-related section when the predetermined condition is not satisfied. The object-detected section is a section in which the specific object is detected. The non-detected section is a section in which the specific object is not detected and which is in a consecutive relation with the object-detected section.
1. A video analyzing device for specifying an object-related section related to an object from a video, the video analyzing device comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, makes the video analyzing device function as:
an object tracker that specifies, in the video, a first detected section in which the object is detected, a non-detected section in which the object is not detected that is temporally consecutive with and subsequent to the first detected section, and a second detected section in which the object is detected that is temporally consecutive with and subsequent to the non-detected section;
an object-related section specifier that, when the object is detected in a predefined region of an end frame of the first detected section and a start frame of the second detected section, determines that the non-detected section is a section in which the object is temporarily out of frame and specifies a section from a start frame of the first detected section to an end frame of the second detected section as the object-related section; and
an object-related section playback unit that extracts the object-related section from the video and plays back the object-related section.
2. The video analyzing device according to claim 1 , wherein
the predefined region is a region bordering the end frame and the start frame.
3. A video analyzing device for specifying an object-related section related to an object from a video, the video analyzing device comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, makes the video analyzing device function as:
an object tracker that specifies, in the video, a first detected section in which the object is detected, a non-detected section in which the object is not detected that is temporally consecutive with and subsequent to the first detected section, and a second detected section in which the object is detected that is temporally consecutive with and subsequent to the non-detected section;
an object-related section specifier that, when an orientation of the object is in a predefined range and a size of the object is equal to or greater than a predefined threshold in an end frame of the first detected section and a start frame of the second detected section, determines that the non-detected section is a section in which the object is a target of video capture and specifies a section from a start frame of the first detected section to an end frame of the second detected section as the object-related section; and
an object-related section playback unit that extracts the object-related section from the video and plays back the object-related section.
4. A video analyzing device for specifying an object-related section related to an object from a video, the video analyzing device comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, makes the video analyzing device function as:
an object tracker that specifies, in the video, a first detected section in which the object is detected, a non-detected section in which the object is not detected that is temporally consecutive with and subsequent to the first detected section, and a second detected section in which the object is detected that is temporally consecutive with and subsequent to the non-detected section;
an object-related section specifier that, when motion blur is greater than a predefined level in the non-detected section, determines that the non-detected section is a section in which the object is a target of video capture and specifies a section from a start frame of the first detected section to an end frame of the second detected section as the object-related section; and
an object-related section playback unit that extracts the object-related section from the video and plays back the object-related section.
