Abstract

In this paper, we develop an interactive Non-negative Matrix Factorization method for representative action video discovery. The original video is first evenly segmented into some short clips and the bag-of-words model is used to describe each clip. Then a temporal consistent Non-negative Matrix Factorization model is used for clustering and action segmentation. Since the clustering and segmentation results may not satisfy the user’s intention, two extra human operations: MERGE and ADD are developed to permit user to improve the results. The newly developed interactive Non-negative Matrix Factorization method can therefore generate personalized results. Experimental results on the public Weizman dataset demonstrate that our approach is able to improve the action discovery and segmentation results.
