摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and a module for identifying a background of a scene depicted in an acquired stream of video frames that may be used by a video-analysis system. For each pixel or block of pixels in an acquired video frame a comparison measure is determined. The comparison measure depends on difference of color values exhibited in the acquired video frame and in a background image respectively by the pixel or block of pixels and a corresponding pixel and block of pixels in the background image. To determine the comparison measure, the resulting difference is considered in relation to a range of possible color values. If the comparison measure is above a dynamically adjusted threshold, the pixel or the block of pixels is classified as a part of the background of the scene.

A sequence layer in a machine-learning engine configured to learn from the observations of a computer vision engine. In one embodiment, the machine-learning engine uses the voting experts to segment adaptive resonance theory (ART) network label sequences for different objects observed in a scene. The sequence layer may be configured to observe the ART label sequences and incrementally build, update, and trim, and reorganize an ngram trie for those label sequences. The sequence layer computes the entropies for the nodes in the ngram trie and determines a sliding window length and vote count parameters. Once determined, the sequence layer may segment newly observed sequences to estimate the primitive events observed in the scene as well as issue alerts for inter-sequence and intra-sequence anomalies.

Techniques are disclosed for detecting sudden illumination changes using radiance consistency within a spatial neighborhood. A background/foreground (BG/FG) component of a behavior recognition system may be configured to generate a background image depicting a scene background. Further, the (BG/FG) component may periodically evaluate a current video frame to determine whether a sudden illumination change has occurred. A sudden illumination change occurs when scene lighting changes dramatically from one frame to the next (or over a small number of frames).

A tracker component for a computer vision engine of a machine-learning based behavior-recognition system is disclosed. The behavior-recognition system may be configured to learn, identify, and recognize patterns of behavior by observing a video stream (i.e., a sequence of individual video frames). The tracker component may be configured to track objects depicted in the sequence of video frames and to generate, search, match, and update computational models of such objects.

Techniques are disclosed for visually conveying an event map. The event map may represent information learned by a surveillance system. A request may be received to view the event map for a specified scene. The event map may be generated, including a background model of the specified scene and at least one cluster providing a statistical distribution of an event in the specified scene. Each statistical distribution may be derived from data streams generated from a sequence of video frames depicting the specified scene captured by a video camera. Each event may be observed to occur at a location in the specified scene corresponding to a location of the respective cluster in the event map. The event map may be configured to allow a user to view and/or modify properties associated with each cluster. For example, the user may label a cluster and set events matching the cluster to always (or never) generate an alert.

Techniques are disclosed for visually conveying a percept. The percept may represent information learned by a video surveillance system. A request may be received to view a percept for a specified scene. The percept may have been derived from data streams generated from a sequence of video frames depicting the specified scene captured by a video camera. A visual representation of the percept may be generated. A user interface may be configured to display the visual representation of the percept and to allow a user to view and/or modify metadata attributes with the percept. For example, the user may label a percept and set events matching the percept to always (or never) result in alert being generated for users of the video surveillance system.
