Abstract

Viewer interest, evoked by video content, can potentially identify the highlights of the video. This paper explores the use of facial expressions (FE) and heart rate (HR) of viewers captured using camera and non-strapped sensor for identifying interesting video segments. The data from ten subjects with three videos showed that these signals are viewer dependent and not synchronized with the video contents. To address this issue, new algorithms are proposed to effectively combine FE and HR signals for identifying the time when viewer interest is potentially high. The results show that, compared with subjective annotation and match report highlights, 'non-neutral' FE and 'relatively higher and faster' HR is able to capture 60%-80% of goal, foul, and shot-ongoal soccer video events. FE is found to be more indicative than HR of viewer interest, but the fusion of these two modalities outperforms each of them.
