A Semi-Automatic Video Annotation tool with MPEG-7 Content Collections

In this work, we present a general purpose system for hierarchical structural segmentation and automatic annotation of video clips, by means of standardized low level features. We propose to automatically extract some prototypes for each class with a context based intra-class clustering. Clips are annotated following the MPEG-7 standard directives to provide easier portability. Results of automatic annotation and semiautomatic metadata creation are provided
