Efficient Video Clip Retrieval Using Index Structure
Retrieving similar video clips from large video database requires high query efficiency, precision and recall, which remains a challenging problem since the traditional query algorithms are inefficient and time-consuming. In this paper, we adopt the high-dimensional index structure vector-approximation file (VA-file) to organize the video database, and propose a new similarity measure which takes the temporal order among the video representations into account to improve the accuracy of query. Based on the VA-file and similarity measure, a new video clip retrieval algorithm is proposed in our method to achieve high query efficiency by using restricted sliding window to construct candidate video clips. Experimental results show that the proposed video retrieval method is efficient and effective
