A new approach to retrieve video by example video clip

The similarity measure between video clips is a key issue in video retrieval. In the developing of our video retrieval system, we propose a new video similarity model. In contrast to existing algorithms, it proposes many influencing factors, such as order factor, speed factor, disturbance factor, etc, based on the subjective visual judgement of human. So this algorithm embodies the degree of similarity completely and systematically. On the other hand, it has resolution adaptation because it can be applied to every level of video structure. In the retrieval system, it can be used to process video query by example clip. This paper introduces it in detail and presents experiment results at the end of the paper.
