Description

Video data, generated by the entertainment industry, security and traffic cameras, video conferencing systems, video emails, and so on, is particularly time-consuming to process by human beings. The field of visualization has provided this challenging problem with a collection of techniques that transform videos to different visual forms in order to reduce the time required to watch the video. In this tutorial, we will introduce the concept of video visualization, and several elementary techniques for processing and rendering a video into a compact visual representation. We will describe a family of visual representations, a set of insight obtained from empirical studies, and a collection of applications.
