    摘要: A system computes a combined dominant color descriptor (DCD) of a plurality of images (IM 1, IM 2, IM n). The system comprises an input 206 for receiving a plurality of respective dominant color descriptors (DCD 1, DCD 2, DCD n) of respective images of the plurality of images (IM 1, IM 2, IM n). The system further comprises means 202 for generating a collection of generated color values (IM) based on dominant colors included in the received dominant color descriptors (DCD 1, DCD 2, DCD n), and means 204 for computing at least one dominant color of the collection of generated color values (IM) for inclusion in the combined dominant color descriptor (DCD). In the collection, at least one generated color value is included representing a dominant color in one of the received dominant color descriptors.

    摘要: At least one region of interest within an image is determined, step 201. The image is resized to a target image size step 207. If at least one region of interest is determined the image is cropped to each of the at least one region of interest, step 205 and the cropped at least one region of interest is resized to the target image size. The re-sized image and the resized cropped at least one region of interest are stored for display, step 209.

    摘要: A method of generating a summary of an audio/visual data stream is provided, the data stream comprising a plurality of consecutive frames having audio and visual properties. A plurality of shots of an audio/visual data stream are detected (step 204). A plurality of segments of the audio/visual data stream are determined (step 206), each segment comprising a plurality of the shots of the data stream having similar visual properties. A segment of the determined plurality of segments is selected (step 208). For each shot of said selected segment of said data stream, the audio in a plurality of consecutive frames which occur after the end of said shot is extracted (step 210). At least one of the shots is selected based on the extracted audio (step 212). A summary is generated to include the selected at least one of the shots (step 214).

    摘要: A summary comprising a plurality of selected segments of the content item is presented to a user (step 202) and a user input is received (step 204). The non-selected segments located between a previously presented segment and the segment being presented at the time of receiving said user input are determined (step 206) and each non-selected segment is assigned a ranking value (step 208). At least one non-selected segment is presented (step 210). Presentation of the selected segment being presented at the time of receiving the user input is resumed (step 212).
