Video Visualization

Video visualization is a computation process that extracts meaningful information from original video data sets. Such visualizations can convey much more information, especially spatial-temporal information, than a few statistical indicators or line graphs. With carefully prepared visualizations, the human vision system, perhaps the most intelligent vision system, is able to become accustomed to certain kinds of "normal" visual patterns, and react to unusual levels or patterns of activities that need further investigation
In this talk, the speaker will present methods for “summarizing” video sequences, and rendering video volumes into appropriate visual representations that can be used to assist in the decision making processes of a human operator. He will discuss scientific and technical issues raised by this new development, and highlight the important role of computer vision techniques can play in video visualization.
