These representative frames together form the video summary. In this study we have considered the video key-frame selection. As a part of research work and the minor research project, we have studied and implemented various methods for shot detection and key-frame selection using Matlab and C++. In this study the improved algorithm for histogram based approach is proposed for multiple visual descriptor features of video key-frames selection for compact video representation.
