    摘要: Embodiments of the disclosed systems and methods establish quantitative and accurate relationships between system features and system objectives. In one embodiment, the systems and methods are particularly suitable to establish the predictive relationships between system fidelity and training objectives. These systems and methods can combine fidelity values defined by end-users, existing theory and research, or objective performance data from experiments. The predictive relationships defined through these methods can feed a model-based decision support tool that helps predict the impact of fidelity on training effectiveness.

    摘要: A method for operating a surveillance system includes performing a first portion of an automated visual surveillance tour of a predetermined control area by inducing movement of at least one visual surveillance camera at a first camera tour speed. The method also includes recording at least one first video image frame of the predetermined control area. The method further includes recording at least one second video image frame of the predetermined control area. The method also includes automatically determining whether a region of interest exists within the predetermined control area. The method further includes performing a second portion of the automated visual surveillance tour by shifting the induced movement of the at least one visual surveillance camera to a second camera tour speed. The method also includes automatically dwelling on the region of interest.
