           "Automatic Structure Visualization for Video Editing"

We developed intelligent video analysis functions for the automatic
description of the video structure and the visualization methods, that user
easily understand and operate,  for the analysis functions as well as the
temporal-spatial video structures obtained by these functions.  The
functions offer such descriptions as cut separations, motion of the camera
and objects, tracks and contour lines of objects, existence of the object
and period of existence.  Further, identical objects are automatically
linked.  Thus the new visualization methods supported by object links allow
users to directly manipulate the structure itself, descriptions and raw
video data without paying too much attention to the levels within the
hierarchy of video information.
