Evaluation of video summaries

In this paper we present a demonstration tool to illustrate the VERT measure for evaluating video summaries. An interface allows the user to conveniently watch the videos, and select the keyframes for his summary. Then a panel of colored grids shows the comparison of his selection with the reference, and another panel shows the VERT weights for the user selection and the reference. Finally, curves of the VERT scores are displayed in the last panel. In this paper, we review the basic principles of the VERT measure and then describe the demo tool in more details.
