Abstract:
There is disclosed a video classification device for classifying video scenes of a still image or a moving picture. A video input unit inputs video to be classified. A face posture detection unit detects face posture data from the inputted video. Here, the face posture data includes at least part of the number of person faces, the position, size, and direction of each of person faces. A reference face posture storage unit stores in advance face posture data as reference face posture data while correlating it with a scene for each type of scenes serving as bases for classification. A face posture evaluation unit calculates similarity between the face posture data detected from the inputted video and the reference face posture data and classifies the inputted video scene according to the similarity.
