Our system allows the user to specify the desired operations for creating the output image, such as super-resolution, noise and blur reduction, and selection of best focus. It also provides a visual summary of activity in the video by incorporating saliency-based objectives in the snapshot formation process. We show examples on a number of different video clips to illustrate the utility and flexibility of our system.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/video-snapshots-creating-high-quality-images-video-clips/}, pages = {1868-1879}, journal = {IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics}, volume = {18}, }
