Effective Dissolve Detection Based on Accumulating Histogram Difference and the Support Point

Abstract

This paper presents a novel dissolve detection method based on accumulating histogram difference (AHD) and support points. The proposed algorithm can detect fades and dissolves and avoid the false detection caused by the flashlight. In terms of recall, precision, computational complexity per frame and computational complexity per pixel, we compare our method with the Twin algorithm and the Two Measures Two Thresholds (TMTT) algorithm for fade detection and dissolve detection. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our algorithm.
