We will present a new approach for the scene extraction of sport videos by incorporating the user-interactions to specify certain parameters during the extraction process, instead of relying on fully automated processes. It employs a scene search algorithm and a supporting user interface (UI). This UI allows the users to visually investigate the scene search results and specify key parameters, such as the reference frames and sensitivity threshold values to be used for the template matching

... rithms, in order to find relevant frames for the scene extraction. We will show the results of this approach using two videos of youth soccer games. Our main focus in these case studies was to extract segments of these videos, in which the goalkeepers interacted with the balls. The resulting videos can then be exported for further player performance analyses enabled by Stopper, an app that tracks keeper performance and provides analytical data visualizations.
