Abstract
TV commercials recognition is a need for advertisers in order to check the fulfillment of their contracts with TV stations. In this paper we present an approach to this problem based on compacting a representative frame of each shot by a PCA of its color histogram. We also present a new algorithm for scene break detection based on the analysis of local color variations in consecutive frames of some specific regions of the image.
