IBM High-Five: Highlights From Intelligent Video Engine

We introduce a novel multi-modal system for auto-curating golf highlights that fuses information from players' reactions (celebration actions), spectators (crowd cheering), and commentator (tone of the voice and word analysis) to determine the most interesting moments of a game. The start of a highlight is determined with additional metadata (player's name and the hole number), allowing personalized content summarization and retrieval. Our system was demonstrated at Masters 2017, a major golf tournament, generating real-time highlights from four live video streams over four days.
