1. A method for describing activity in a compressed video sequence, comprising the steps of:
- measuring intensity attributes of the activity in the compressed video sequence;
measuring direction attributes of the activity in the compressed video sequence;
measuring spatial attributes of the activity in the compressed video sequence;
measuring temporal attributes of the activity in the compressed video sequence; and
combining the measured intensity, direction, spatial and temporal attributes of the activity in a digital descriptor of the activity of the compressed video sequence.

Abstract
A method describes activity in a video sequence. The method measures intensity, direction, spatial, and temporal attributes in the video sequence, and the measured attributes are combined in a digital descriptor of the activity of the video sequence.

16. A method for describing an activity represented in a compressed video sequence, comprising:
-
deriving motion information of the activity representing the compressed video sequence; determining an intensity attribute corresponding to an intensity level of the represented activity, a direction attribute corresponding to a direction of the represented activity, a spatial attribute corresponding to a spatial dimension of the represented activity, and a temporal attribute corresponding to a temporal dimension of the represented activity, based on the derived motion information; and describing the activity with a descriptor corresponding to the determined attributes. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
