This paper investigates the classification of short user-generated videos (UGVs) using the accompanied audio data since short UGVs accounts for a great proportion of the Internet UGVs and many short UGVs are accompanied by singlecategory soundtracks. We define seven types of UGVs corresponding to seven audio categories respectively. We also investigate three modeling approaches for audio feature representation, namely, single Gaussian (1G), Gaussian mixture (GMM) and Bag-of-Audio-Word (BoAW) models. Then using Support Vector Machine (SVM) with three different distance measurements corresponding to three feature representations, classifiers are trained to categorize the UGVs. The accompanying evaluation results show that these approaches are effective for categorizing the short UGVs based on their audio track. Experimental results show that a GMM representation with approximated Bhattacharyya distance (ABD) measurement produces the best performance, and BoAW representation with chi-square kernel also reports comparable results.
