  • Publication number: 20230352052
    Abstract: An information processing device 1X mainly includes a slow motion video generation means 16X and a digest candidate generation means 18X. The slow motion video generation means 16X generates a slow motion video SL being video data in which a playback speed of the first candidate video data Cd1 is slower than a normal speed, with respect to first candidate video data Cd1 being video data corresponding to a segment of a portion selected from video material data Dm. Here, the digest candidate generation means 18X generates digest candidate Cd being a candidate of a digest of the video material data Dm based on the video material data Dm and the slow motion video SL.

  • Publication number: 20230206635
    Abstract: The information processing device mainly includes a reference time determination means 16X, a further camera shot extraction means 17X, and a digest candidate generation means 18X. The reference time determination means 16X determines a reference time Tref being a time or a time period for extracting video data of a second camera different from a first camera, based on candidate video data Cd1 to be a candidate of a digest of a first video material data from the first camera. The further shot extraction means 17X extracts a further camera shot Sh corresponding to a portion of a second video material data from the second camera based on the reference time Tref. The digest candidate generation means 18X generates a digest candidate Cd being a digest for the first and second video material data, based on the candidate video data Cd1 and the further camera shot Sh.

  • Publication number: 20230205816
    Abstract: An information processing device 1X mainly includes an inference means 15X, an input reception means 16X, and a digest candidate generation means 17X. The inference means 15X acquires an inference result for each inference engine to video material data by a plurality of inference engines which perform respective inferences concerning a degree of importance with respect to video data being input. The input reception means 16X receives an input indicating parameters concerning the inference result for each inference engine. The digest candidate generation means 17X generates a digest candidate which is a candidate of a digest of the video material data, based on the parameters and the inference result for each inference engine.
