Abstract: A video surveillance system includes an on-premises system with a plurality of servers running video management software including server components and a plurality of agents running independently from the server components. The on-premises system enables remote communication with the on-premises system, where each agent enables updates/upgrades of at least one server component, and a cloud-based system bidirectionally communicating with the on-premises system via a first communication channel. The video surveillance system establishes a plurality of second communication channels that establish a connection between at least one agent associated with at least one server component and the cloud-based system. The agents use information obtained via the first communication channel to establish the second communication channels. The video surveillance system transmits, from the cloud-based system to the on-premises system, software updates/upgrades, and instructs installation of the transmitted software updates/upgrades in a predetermined sequence using the plurality of second communication channels.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating a thumbnail of a video stream or file of a surveillance area in a video management system, including setting, in the video management system, at least one sound event to be detected in at least one audio stream or file corresponding to the video stream or file; detecting, in the at least one audio stream or file, at least one point in time at which the at least one sound event occurs; generating the thumbnail based on at least part of at least one frame of the video stream or file, wherein the frame is selected based on the point in time; and displaying the thumbnail in the video management system.

Abstract: A video processing apparatus configured to process a stream of video surveillance data, wherein the video surveillance data includes metadata associated with video data, the metadata describing at least one object in the video data. The apparatus comprises means for applying an image assessment algorithm to generate a reliability score for the metadata, and associating the reliability score with the metadata. The image assessment algorithm generates the reliability score based on an assessment of the image quality of the video data to which the metadata relates to indicate a likelihood that the metadata accurately describes the object. An image enhancement module applies image enhancement to video data if the reliability score of metadata associated with the video data indicates a low likelihood that the metadata accurately describes the object.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating a video stream recommendation comprises identifying a plurality of peripheral devices monitoring zones of a physical area, the peripheral devices comprising a plurality of video cameras providing video streams of at least some of the monitored zones. The method further comprises querying a knowledge graph representing the peripheral devices and the monitored zones as ontology entities connected by edges representing physical paths between the monitored zones, and by edges representing which monitored zones the peripheral devices monitor, in order to identify a set of one or more video camera(s) monitoring zones other than a selected monitored zone, as a result of the querying. The method then comprises generating a video stream recommendation based on the result of the querying.
