Intelligent audio/video/transmission techniques and multimedia applications (I)

As the amount of available video data is overwhelming, people prefer to access this
information actively. Powerful tools for video indexing, retrieval and filtering are in great
demand. Moving object extraction plays an important role in these tools, especially for sports
videos. This report mainly discusses a semi-automatic video object extraction algorithm using
object tracking by motion and color projection. Experimental results show the good
performance of proposed method.
