A TV Commercial Detection System

Automatic real-time recognition of TV commercials is an essential step for TV broadcast monitoring. It comprises of two basic tasks: rapid detection of known commercials that are stored in a database, and accurate recognition of unknown ones that appear for the first time in TV streaming. In this paper, we present the framework of a TV commercial detection system.
