ABSTRACT 

Video summarization of the segmented video is an essential process for video thumbnails, video surveillance and video downloading. Summarization deals with extracting few frames from each scene and creating a summary video which explains all course of action of full video with in short duration of time. The proposed research work discusses about the segmentation and summarization of the frames. A genetic algorithm (GA) for segmentation and summarization is required to view the highlight of an event by selecting few important frames required. The GA is modified to select only key frames for summarization and the comparison of modified GA is done with the GA.
