Three-Algorithm Video Summarization Implementation

In this video summarization project, we implement three different algorithms using MATLAB. The implementation covers key aspects including algorithm selection criteria, feature extraction methods, and summary generation techniques. Each algorithm employs distinct approaches for selecting representative frames or segments from the original video content. The project demonstrates practical MATLAB coding techniques for video processing, including frame extraction using VideoReader, feature computation through color histograms and motion analysis, and optimization methods for keyframe selection. We provide detailed explanations of each algorithm's underlying principles, such as clustering-based approaches, importance scoring mechanisms, and temporal segmentation strategies. Through this implementation, you will gain comprehensive understanding of video summarization concepts while developing hands-on experience with MATLAB's image processing and computer vision toolbox. The code includes functions for video I/O operations, frame difference calculations, and summary evaluation metrics. This project serves as an excellent foundation for developing advanced video analysis applications.
