VIDEO GENERATION METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER SYSTEM
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer vision
technology, and more
particularly to a video generating method, and corresponding device and
computer system.
Description of Related Art
[0002] With the quickening of the tempo of life, consumers hope to be able to
acquire relevant
information of commodities more visually directly, and the traditional method
of relying
on a certain number of commodity pictures to present commodities can no longer
satisfy
the requirements of e-commerce platforms to present commodity characteristics
to help
consumers select commodities and make decisions, instead, commodity
presentation
short videos for presenting commodity functions or actual use effects have
become the
mainstream of commodity propaganda of various large online retailers. However,
great
quantities of commodity videos uploaded by such users as merchants are
diversified in
qualities, not fixed in lengths, and cannot meet the marketing requirements of
the
platforms.
[0003] In the state of the art, the generation of commodity videos is
classified into two large
categories, namely the traditional manual method and graphic video conversion
generation. The traditional manual method is to manually segment the shots of
the
uploaded source video according to scene contents and target source materials
etc., and
thereafter manually screen and join various video segments that satisfy the
marketing
standards to obtain creative commodity marketing short videos that satisfy
user
requirements; the method puts high technical demand on the operator, has low
timeliness
and high subjectivity during the manual operation, and cannot satisfy the
marketing
requirements of videos.
[0004] The method of graphic video conversion requires the cutout of commodity
presentation
pictures provided by merchants, the cutouts are thereafter deployed in preset
image

backgrounds to form finished pictures of commodities, such template files as
video
templates and background music are obtained from video source material
libraries
existing in the platforms, and commodity videos are generated in batches from
these
template files. Although generation of commodity videos in great batches is
achieved
thereby, the styles and formats of the commodity videos are completely
dependent upon
template files preconfigured in the source material libraries, whereby videos
generated
are close in styles and lacking in formats, fall short of visually directly
presenting actual
statuses of commodities to consumers, and are rather limited in the capability
of
expression.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0056] In order to make more lucid and clear the objectives, technical
solutions and advantages
of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the
present
invention will be clearly and comprehensively described below with reference
to the
accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently,

embodiments, of the present invention. All other embodiments obtainable by
persons
ordinarily skilled in the art based on the embodiments in the present
invention without
spending any creative effort shall all be covered by the protection scope of
the present
invention.
[0057] As noted in the Description of Related Art, the two methods of
generating commodity
videos frequently used in the state of the art are respectively restricted to
certain degrees.
Use of the manual editing method is high in manpower cost, low in efficiency,
and cannot
satisfy the practical requirements for generating commodity videos in great
batches;
although the video generating method based on graphic conversion achieves
higher
efficiency, available video formats and video styles are few and fixed, and
the capability
of expression is rather limited.
[0058] In order to solve the aforementioned technical problems, the present
application proposes
obtaining video segments by segmenting the video uploaded by a user with a
preset
segmenting method, employing a preset classification model to classify each
video
segment, obtaining confidence to which each video segment corresponds, and
joining any
video segment whose confidence satisfies a preset condition in the
classifications
according to a target video classification selected by the user, so as to
obtain the target
video. It is realized to generate a target video that conforms to requirements
according to
the video uploaded by the user, and timeliness of video generation is
guaranteed at the
same time.
[0059] Embodiment 1
[0060] In order to achieve classification of video segments obtained by
segmentation, it is
required to train the classification model in advance, specifically, an MEnet
3D
convolutional neural network model can be used as the classification model.
The MEnet
3D convolutional neural network model is a lightweight deep learning model,
relative to
such recent deep learning models as I3D, SlowFastnet, etc., the model is more
refined
and simplified, has fewer computational amount of floating points FLOPs, and
exhibits
more excellent testing effect on the testing dataset.

[0061] The training process includes:
[0062] 110¨ importing a training dataset;
[0063] the training dataset can be generated by the following method:
[0064] 111¨obtaining a preset number of commodity videos, and creating a
corresponding video
folder for each video;
[0065] 112¨ classifying segments contained in each video into different
categories according to
different contents as presented, wherein the categories include, but are not
limited to,
commodity subject appearance, commodity usage scene, and commodity content
introduction, and performing manual editing according to the classified
categories;
[0066] 113 ¨ creating a home folder corresponding to each category at the
folder to which each
video corresponds, wherein the home folder marks the corresponding category,
under the
various home folders is/are contained one or more sub video segment folder(s)
of the
video that corresponds to the category, and under the sub video segment
folder(s) is/are
stored one or more image frame(s) of the corresponding video segment;
[0067] 114¨ densely sampling the folder to which each video corresponds, and
normalizing the
sampled sample to a size of NxCxHxW, where N indicates the number of sample
frames
of each sub video segment folder, C indicates RGB channels of each frame, H
indicates
the preset height of each frame, and W indicates the preset width of each
frame, preferably,
N is at least 8.
[0068] 120 ¨ employing the training dataset to train the MFnet 3D
convolutional neural network
model, and obtaining a preset model.
[0069] Fig. 1 is a view schematically illustrating the network structure of
the model, including
3DCNN for extracting a 3D convolution feature contained in each sample, the 3D
convolution feature contains a spatiotemporal feature, including such movement
information of objects inside the video stream as movement tendency and
background
variation of commodities, etc.

[0070] 3Dpooling is a pooling layer of the model used for pooling the output
from 3DCNN, the
pooling result is input to a 3D MF-Unit layer, and such different convoluting
operations
as lx1x1, 3x3x3, 1x3 x3 are carried out;
[0071] Global Pool is a global pool layer used for retaining key features of
the input result and
reducing unnecessary parameters at the same time;
[0072] FClayer is a total connection layer used for outputting the confidence
of each video
segment corresponding to each category.
[0073] The model is employed to test a short video testing set with 56
commodities, and the
testing result is as shown in Table 1:
model loss
Accuracy/% Modelsie/MB Infer time/ms
MF net 0.022 95.92 29.6 330
Table 1
[0074] The model can classify samples obtained by dense sampling of a single
shot, the accuracy
rate of classifications reaches 95.92% in a testing result with altogether
1119 testing
samples of the above video dataset, the single model only has 29.6MB, the
forward
inference time of the video densely sampled from a single shot is 330ms, so
the accuracy
is high and the speed is quick.
[0075] After the preset model has been obtained, generation of the video can
be realized
according to the model. As shown in Fig. 2, the generating process includes:
[0076] Step A ¨ receiving an initial video input by a user;
[0077] Step B ¨ performing shot boundary detection on the initial video,
segmenting the video
according to a detection result, eliminating redundant segments, and obtaining
video
segments.
[0078] As shown in Fig. 3, the shot boundary detecting process includes the
following.
[0079] Each frame of the initial video is firstly equally divided into a
preset number of subblocks
lo
Date Regue/Date Received 2022-06-29
CA 03166347 2022-06-29
by the same preset method, a sub histogram of each subblock is thereafter
calculated, a
difference in histograms with respect to subblocks at the same positions of
adjacent
frames is calculated according to the sub histogram, the adjacent frames of
each frame
include the previous frame of the frame and the next frame of the frame. When
the
difference exceeds a first preset threshold TI-1, this indicates that
corresponding subblocks
between the adjacent frames differ unduly much, when the number of much
different
subblocks of a certain frame is higher than a second preset threshold, it is
considered that
this frame is an abrupt frame, and consecutive abrupt frames constitute an
abrupt shot.
With respect to any frame whose difference lies between the first preset
threshold Tx and
a third preset threshold TL, it is determined as a latent start frame, when
the differences
of its sequentially following frames likewise lie between TL and TI-1, and the
duration of
continuation exceeds a fourth preset threshold, these consecutive frames are
determined
as gradual frames, which constitute a gradual shot, and a shot from which the
gradual and
abrupt shots have been eliminated is considered to be a normal shot.
[0080] In order to guarantee the effect of the generated video, any unduly
short shot whose length
is less than a fifth preset threshold should be eliminated from the normal
shot, and the
required video segment collection is finally obtained.
[0081] Step C ¨ sampling the video segments, inputting the sampling result in
the preset model,
and obtaining a category and confidence to which each video segment
corresponds.
[0082] Firstly, the video segments are randomly densely sampled according to a
temporal
sequence of the video.
[0083] The random and dense sampling process includes the following.
[0084] Sample points are randomly initialized on the video segments, the
sample points are taken
as seven, emphasis is put at the end of the video segments, N frames are
uniformly
sampled, and the sample frames are so preprocessed that they satisfy the size
requirement
for input in the preset model.
[0085] The preprocessed sample frames are thereafter input in the preset
model, and confidences
11
Date Regue/Date Received 2022-06-29
CA 03166347 2022-06-29
of the video segments including the sample frames corresponding to all the
categories are
obtained.
[0086] Step D ¨joining the video segment to which a target category
corresponds according to
the target category and a target duration selected by the user, and generating
a target video.
[0087] For instance, when the user acquires an appearance presentation video
of a current
commodity, the video segments are sorted according to confidences of the
corresponding
appearance presentation category, and the video segment that conforms to the
requirement is screened out.
[0088] The specific screening rule can include the following.
[0089] When a duration T, of the video segment with the highest confidence has
already satisfied
the requirement of the target duration, the video segment with the highest
confidence is
directly taken as the target video;
[0090] when the duration T, of the video segment with the highest confidence
does not satisfy
the requirement of the target duration, the following n video segments T1 are
sequentially
selected according to sorting of the confidence values, where j E [1,n], until
the following
formula is satisfied:
[0091] T1 << + El=7Tj T2, where T2-Ti indicates the target duration;
[0092] when the duration of n+1 shots selected according to the above
confidence scores exceeds
the maximum duration Tz, both ends of the longest shot are cut according to
the duration
of each shot, until the total duration satisfies the requirement of the target
duration.
[0093] Step E ¨ sequentially joining the video segments obtained in Step D
according to the
temporal sequence of the initial video, and obtaining the target video.
[0094] The generated target video can be stored in a video database to be
reused when it is
required next time, or used for continued training of the model.
[0095] Based on the foregoing solution provided by the present application, it
is realized to
12

video uploaded
by the user, and timeliness of video generation is ensured at the same time.

memory, associated with the one or more processor(s), for storing a program
instruction
that performs the following operations when it is read and executed by the one
or more
processor(s):
[0139] receiving an initial video and a target video classification;
[0140] segmenting the initial video into video segments according to a preset
video segmenting
method;
[0141] inputting the video segments in a preset model, and determining
confidence of each video
segment corresponding to all preset video classifications;
[0142] determining the video segment to which the target video classification
corresponds
according to the target video classification and the confidence of each video
segment
corresponding to all preset video classifications; and
[0143] joining the video segment to which the target video classification
corresponds according
to a preset joining parameter, and obtaining a target video.
[0144] Fig. 6 exemplarily illustrates the framework of the computer system
that can specifically
include a processor 1510, a video display adapter 1511, a magnetic disk driver
1512, an
input/output interface 1513, a network interface 1514, and a memory 1520. The
processor
1510, the video display adapter 1511, the magnetic disk driver 1512, the
input/output
interface 1513, the network interface 1514, and the memory 1520 can be
communicably
connected with one another via a communication bus 1530.
[0145] The processor 1510 can be embodied as a general CPU (Central Processing
Unit), a
microprocessor, an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), or one or
more
integrated circuit(s) for executing relevant program(s) to realize the
technical solutions
provided by the present application.

[0146] The memory 1520 can be embodied in such a form as an ROM (Read Only
Memory), an
RAM (Random Access Memory), a static storage device, or a dynamic storage
device.
The memory 1520 can store an operating system 1521 for controlling the running
of a
computer system 1500, and a basic input/output system (BIOS) for controlling
lower-
level operations of the computer system 1500. In addition, the memory 1520 can
also
store a web browser 1523, a data storage administration system 1524, and an
icon font
processing system 1525, etc. The icon font processing system 1525 can be an
application
program that specifically realizes the aforementioned various step operations
in the
embodiments of the present application. To sum it up, when the technical
solutions
provided by the present application are to be realized via software or
firmware, the
relevant program codes are stored in the memory 1520, and invoked and executed
by the
processor 1510.
[0147] The input/output interface 1513 is employed to connect with an
input/output module to
realize input and output of information. The input/output module can be
equipped in the
device as a component part (not shown in the drawings), and can also be
externally
connected with the device to provide corresponding functions. The input means
can
include a keyboard, a mouse, a touch screen, a microphone, and various sensors
etc., and
the output means can include a display screen, a loudspeaker, a vibrator, an
indicator light
etc.
[0148] The network interface 1514 is employed to connect to a communication
module (not
shown in the drawings) to realize intercommunication between the current
device and
other devices. The communication module can realize communication in a wired
mode
(via USB, network cable, for example) or in a wireless mode (via mobile
network, WIFI,
Bluetooth, etc.).
[0149] The bus 1530 includes a passageway transmitting information between
various
component parts of the device (such as the processor 1510, the video display
adapter 1511,
the magnetic disk driver 1512, the input/output interface 1513, the network
interface 1514,
and the memory 1520).

[0150] Additionally, the computer system 1500 may further obtain information
of specific
collection conditions from a virtual resource object collection condition
information
database 1541 for judgment on conditions, and so on.
[0151] As should be noted, although merely the processor 1510, the video
display adapter 1511,
the magnetic disk driver 1512, the input/output interface 1513, the network
interface 1514,
the memory 1520, and the bus 1530 are illustrated for the aforementioned
device, the
device may further include other component parts prerequisite for realizing
normal
running during specific implementation. In addition, as can be understood by
persons
skilled in the art, the aforementioned device may as well only include
component parts
necessary for realizing the solutions of the present application, without
including the
entire component parts as illustrated.
[0152] As can be known through the description to the aforementioned
embodiments, it is clearly
learnt by person skilled in the art that the present application can be
realized through
software plus a general hardware platform. Based on such understanding, the
technical
solutions of the present application, or the contributions made thereby over
the state of
the art, can be essentially embodied in the form of a software product, and
such a
computer software product can be stored in a storage medium, such as an
ROM/RAM, a
magnetic disk, an optical disk etc., and includes plural instructions enabling
a computer
equipment (such as a personal computer, a cloud server, or a network device
etc.) to
execute the methods described in various embodiments or some sections of the
embodiments of the present application.
[0153] The various embodiments are progressively described in the Description,
identical or
similar sections among the various embodiments can be inferred from one
another, and
each embodiment stresses what is different from other embodiments.
Particularly, with
respect to the system or system embodiment, since it is essentially similar to
the method
