1 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 1 “OBJECTIVE AND SUBJECTIVE IDENTIFICATION OF INTERESTING AREAS IN VIDEO SEQUENCES” Danko Tomašić DIPLOMA PROJECT Erasmus Student, University of Trieste, Italy Responsible Assistant: Elisa Drelie Gelasca Professor: Touradj Ebrahimi

2 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 2 Outline  Introduction – Context – Application – State of the Art – Problem Statement  Subjective Experiments for Segmentation Quality Evaluation - Generation of Synthetic Segmentation Errors - Experimental Method - Data Analysis - Work in progress  Conclusions and Future Work

3 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 3 Motivation  REAL WORLD SCENES - presents a large quantity of information to the Human... - high visual acuity – fovea - eye movements – not random ! VISUAL ATTENTION Automatic method for.. REGIONS OF INTEREST (ROI) In video sequences SELECTIVITY

4 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 4 APPLICATIONS  COMPRESSION - preserve the quality in ROIs  SEGMENTATION QUALITY EVALUATION - overall and individual object  IMAGE AND VIDEO QUALITY ANALYSIS –Perceptual PSNR..  IMAGE AND VIDEO DATABASES - extract ROIs in each scene ‘a priori’  DIGITAL WATERMARKING - perceptual marking  MACHINE VISION - real-time robot navigation

5 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 5 FACTORS WHICH INFLUENCE VISUAL ATTENTION  low-level or bottom-up - motion - position - size - color and brightness - contrast - shape - orientation  high-level or top-down - presence of people - background / foreground rapid saliency driven task independent slower volition controlled Relevance.. task dependent

6 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 6 SALIENCE AND RELEVANCE  Salience - bottom-up task-independent factors - connected with observal-external objects or properties - unexpectedness or unusualness of an object  Relevance - top-down volition-controlled and task-dependent factors - observal-internal factors (goals and motivations) - connected to the specific situation = Conspicuity

7 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 7 PREVIOUS ATTENTION MODELS  Correia and Perreira - estimation of video object’s relevance - both individually and in a given context  Osberger - perceptual vision model for image quality assessment and compression applications - early vision model and higher level attention processes - Importance Maps

8 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 8 PREVIOUS MODELS  Osberger and Rohaly - automatic detection of ROIs in video sequences - improvement of previous model - adding temporal and movement features  Pardo - extraction of semantic objects from still images - perceptual metric and Importance Maps - improvement of Osberger’s models

9 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 9 COLOR – STATE OF THE ART  Osberger - red attracts attention more than other colors - red induces higher amount of masking  Correia and Perreira - bright and colored objects are more noticed - red seems to be preferred PROBLEM – NO OTHER QUANTIFIED SOLUTIONS !!!

10 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 10 COLOR – SIGNALLING AND MARKETING  American Standards Association and French Standard - red - dinamic, warm - fireproof protection - red - salient ‘par excellence’ - orange and yellow - salient colors – danger - green - calming color - materials of first aid - blue - cold and calming - caution PROBLEM – NO OTHER QUANTIFIED SOLUTIONS !!! “psychologically active”

11 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 11 Subjective Experiment on Color..  COLOR Color Test II Color Test III Color Test I

12 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 12 COLOR – COLOR TEST I First cycle Second cycle Tested colors in CIELab color space

13 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 13 COLOR TEST I - RESULTS

14 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 14 COLOR – COLOR TEST II Colored objects with semantical meaning Annoyance and Salience of a color interconnected ? Adding gaussian noise (sigma =...)to channel L in HSL color space Matlab - RANDN (M,N) - normal distribution mean = 0 variance = 0.005 Rating the annoyance level

15 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 15 COLOR – COLOR TEST II Tested colors in CIELab color space Test image

16 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 16 COLOR TEST II - RESULTS

17 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 17 COLOR TEST II - RESULTS Cyan Green Pink Magenta Red Light blue Blue Orange Yellow = 241

18 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 18 COLOR – COLOR TEST III Colored objects with semantical meaning Annoyance and Salience of a color interconnected ? Blurred images - 3 levels of blurriness Rating the annoyance level

19 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 19 COLOR – COLOR TEST III Original imageTest image

20 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 20 COLOR TEST III - RESULTS COLOR TEST I vs. COLOR TEST III Second cycle highest level of blurriness 5 CASES Most important Most annoying 3 CASES 1st or 2nd most 2nd or 1st most important annoying 4 CASES RED 3rd most annoying !!! 4 CASES CYAN 1st most annoying !!!

21 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 21 COLOR TEST III - RESULTS COLOR TEST I vs. COLOR TEST III  Light blue  Violet  Dark Green  Maroon  Red  Yellow  Green  Blue Similar importance Similar annoyance

22 Signal Processing Institute Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne 22 COLOR TEST III - RESULTS Average level lines 2 nd level of blurriness 3 rd level of blurriness
