    摘要: Determination of human behavior from an alignment of data streams includes acquiring visual image primitives from a video input comprising visual information relevant to a human activity. The primitives are temporally aligned to an optimally hypothesized sequence of primitives transformed from a sequence of transactions as a function of a distance metric between the observed primitive sequence and the transformed primitive sequence. More particularly, transforming includes comparing the distance metric costs and choosing and performing the lowest cost of temporally matching the observed primitives to one or more transactions, deleting a primitive, or associating a primitive with a pseudo transaction marker. Accordingly, alerts are issued based on analysis of the transformation of primitives.

    摘要: The invention provides an improved method to detect semantic attributes of human body in computer vision. In detecting semantic attributes of human body in computer vision, the invention maintains a list of semantic attributes, each of which corresponds to a human body part. A computer module then analyzes segments of a frame of a digital video to detect each semantic attribute by finding a most likely attribute for each segment. A threshold is applied to select candidate segments of the frame for further analysis. The candidate segments of the frame then go through geometric and resolution context analysis by applying the physical structure principles of a human body and by analyzing increasingly higher resolution versions of the image to verify the existence and accuracy of parts and attributes. A computer module computes a resolution context score for a lower resolution version of the image based on a weighted average score computed for a higher resolution version of the image by evaluating appearance features, geometric features, and resolution context features when available on the higher resolution version of the image. Finally, an optimal configuration step is performed via dynamic programming to select an optimal output with both semantic attributes and spatial positions of human body parts on the frame.

    摘要: The present invention provides a solution for controlling checkout throughput. Specifically, under the present invention a set of attributes of an item will be obtained. An analysis of the set of attributes will then be performed to determine whether an inconsistency exists based on a tolerance threshold. Such analysis can include, for example, comparing the weight of the item to its expected weight. This can help determine if a mistake has been made or fraud has been committed. Whether an inconsistency is observed is based on a tolerance threshold. For example, a certain deviation (i.e., the tolerance threshold) from an expected value could be allowed to could be allowed to reduce errors during the checkout process and thereby increase checkout throughput. As such, the present invention allows the tolerance threshold to be tuned based on a desired checkout throughput.

    摘要: A system and method for assuring a high resolution image of an object, such as the face of a person, passing through a targeted space are provided. Both stationary and active or pan-tilt-zoom cameras are utilized. The at least one stationary camera acts as a trigger point such that when a person passes through a predefined targeted area of the at least one stationary camera, the system is triggered for object imaging and tracking. Upon the occurrence of a triggering event in the system, the system predicts the motion and position of the person. Based on this predicted position of the person, an active camera that is capable of obtaining an image of the predicted position is selected and may be controlled to focus its image capture area on the predicted position of the person. After the active camera control and image capture processes, the system evaluates the quality of the captured face images and reports the result to the security agents and interacts with the user.

    摘要: A non-scan detect system for a retail checkout station includes a non-scan detect module. The non-scan detect module, when operated, causes the non-scan detect system to detect the passing of an item across a scanner device of a retail checkout station, determine that the item passing across the scanner device was not registered as a scan, establish a potential non-scanned item based on the item not being registered as a scan, obtain an image of the potential non-scanned item, establish a scanned item based on an item passing across the scanner device being registered as a scan, extract features associated with the scanned item, compare the features associated with the scanned item with the image of the potential non-scanned item, and trigger an actual non-scan if the features of the scanned item do not substantially match the image of the potential non-scanned item.
