Content-based video browsing tools

Browsing is important for multimedia content retrieval, editing, authoring and communications. Yet, we are still lacking browsing tools which are user friendly and content-based, at least for video materials. In this paper, we present a set of video browsing tools which utilize video content information resulting from a parsing process. Video parsing algorithms are briefly discussed and a detail description of both sequential and time-space browsing tools are presented.
