Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of camera selection in multi-camera systems and proposes a novel selection method based on a partially observable Markov decision process model (POMDP). And an innovative evaluation function identifies the most informative of several multi-view video streams by extracting and scoring features related to global motion, attributes of moving objects, and special events such as the appearance of new objects. The experiments show that these proposed visual evaluation criteria successfully measure changes in scenes and our camera selection method effectively reduces camera switching.
