Abstract  In this work we present a probabilistic learning approach to model video news story for retrospective event detection (RED). In this approach, both content and time information on a news video is utilized to transcribe the news story into terms, which are divided into classes by their semantics. Then a probabilistic model, composed of sub-models corresponding to the semantic classes respectively, is proposed. The model’s parameters are estimated by EM algorithm. Experiments showed that the proposed approach has better detection resolution.
