Abstract:
A system and method for segmenting an image stream to a plurality of segments is provided. A processing unit may be configured to calculate a set of pixel-based properties for frames of an image stream, and detect segments of constant mean values in the sets of pixel-based properties. The segments of constant mean values are detected by using a window method that determines possible partition points of the window, and calculating a difference between mean values of the sets of pixel-based properties for each sub-window of frames. Points of change may be identified in the calculated difference between mean values of the sets of pixel-based properties. A display unit may display a summarized representation of the image stream, wherein the summarized representation includes a plurality of segments, each segment corresponding to a segment of constant mean values in the sets of pixel-based properties.
