Abstract

In this paper we present a robust technique for summarizing sport video sequences. Unlike dense optical flow and parametric methods, we develop a semi-automatic application that uses geometrical information, such as straight lines, extracted from sequences of images. This information is used to compute the homographies between consecutive frames. This estimation yields a manner of synthesizing a high resolution image of the background plus the field-centered trajectories of the moving objects onto it.
