For efficient indexing and retrieval of video archives, concept detection stands as an important problem .In this work, a generalized structure that can be used for detection of diverse and distinct concepts is proposed. In the system, MPEG-7 Descriptors and Scale Invariant Transform (SIFT) are utilized as visual features. Furthermore, visual features are transformed by codebooks which are constructed by k-Means clustering. On the other hand, classification is performed on the distribution of visual features over the codebook. Proposed system is firstly tested against an elementary concept. Afterwards for a set of concepts system performance is reported on the TRECVID 2009 test set. It has been observed that with a sufficiently large training set high performance can be achieved with this method. ©2010 IEEE.
