Abstract

This paper presents a new dissimilarity measure for the detection of dynamic overlays in football games from TV broadcasting. The detection of the dynamic overlays is used for finding the replays in the input video, that are to be removed for further processing. The replays´ detection and removal is part of the first module of the system ACE-Football for the automated interpretation of association football games, which is being developed at the PRIS-lab. Positive results of experiments conducted on several games of the latest FIFA´s World Cup are presented.
