Shot boundary detection is constantly being studied as an essential technique for analyzing video content. In this paper, we propose an End-to-End Learning model using the SSD (Single Shot Multibox Detector) method to resolve the shortcomings of the existing research and to identify the exact location of the cut transition. We applied the concept of the Multi-Scale Feature Map and Default box of the SSD to predict multiple cut transitions, and combined the concept of Image Concatenation, one of the image comparison methods, with the model to reinforce the feature information of the cut transitions. The proposed model showed 88.7% and 98.0% accuracy in the re-labeled ClipShots and TRECVID 2007 datasets, respectively, compared to the latest research. Additionally, it detected a range closer to the correct answer than the existing deep learning model.
